This article analyses the determinants of attendees’ tourism spending at professional basketball matches during the 2012/2013 season. For this purpose, it applies a linear quantile regression and considers the effect of specific sports event variables which have rarely been assessed in this type of study. Empirical results confirm that the determinants of expenditure have a different influence depending on the spending level. Individual spending is principally influenced by the origin of the attendees as well as by several other sports factors such as the time the match takes place, the admission price, or the sporting level of the rival team. The study establishes two levels of spending to identify the different behaviors that correspond to each of the factors under study. The findings could provide a useful input into tourism strategies related to the hosting of sport events.

Background. An adaptive attitude toward uncertainty may facilitate goals achievement, however, there is a lack of scientific research on this issue among extreme sport athletes. Sports tourism (ST) is a promising area for investigation of the psychological mechanisms underlying adaptation to extreme stressful environments. Objective. The goal is to establish the connection between tolerance for uncertainty, route experience, autonomy skills, and ...

The purpose is to enable inference in case of quantile regression with endogenous covariates and clustered data. It is proven that the instrumental variable quantile regression estimator is consistent where there is correlation of errors within clusters, and an asymptotic distribution for the estimator, which may be used for inference for a given quantile τ, is derived. As regards inference based on the entire instrumental ...

The article below presents a hypothesis about the normal distribution of Russian tourists in the context of their psychographic states within the framework of motivational-target dynamics, i.e. for various types of tourism. The hypothesis of a normal distribution is not rejected for cultural, gastronomic, sports, health and event tourism. The author revealed that tourists can ...

Purpose:This study constructs the influence mechanism model of sustainable marketing activities (SMAs), event image, commemorative product perceived value and tourists’ behavioral intentions (TBIs) in the sports tourism context of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games. Additionally, the article discusses the role of event image and product perceived value in enhancing the SMAs’ effect on TBIs.

During the past several decades, the importance of assessing the risk of GDP growth downturns has increased tremendously. The financial crisis of 2008–2009 and the global lockdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated the vulnerability of the modern economy. As a result, a new framework (Growth-at-Risk) has been developed which allows the estimation of the ...

The prominence of the Euler allocation rule (EAR) is rooted in the fact that it is the only return on risk-adjusted capital (RORAC) compatible capital allocation rule. When the total regulatory capital is set using the value-at-risk (VaR), the EAR becomes – using a statistical term – the quantile-regression (QR) function. Although the cumulative QR ...

The desire to capture heterogeneity in the response of the dependent variable to covariates often forces empiricists to employ panel data quantile regression models. Very often practitioners forget the limitations of their datasets in terms of the sample size n and the length of panel T. Yet, quantile regression requires large samples, long panels and ...

This paper focuses on innovative manufacturing firms in Japan in 2009–2020 and evaluates
differences in the relationship between R&D intensity and firm growth. We use a longitudinal

The paper is devoted to modeling the links between the institutional and actual level of globalization in the countries of the world. Vector models of error correction, quantile regression, and a stochastic frontier model are considered. As a measure of globalization and its components, the KOF-index of globalization system is used, which allows analyzing individual ...

We conduct an open search of predictors of global real economic activity. To this end, we apply a predictive quantile regression framework, using four alternative proxies of global real economic activity during February 1997–August 2019 and building on a combination of machine learning algorithms to identify their predictors out of 23 candidate explanatory variables. The contemporaneous level ...

Non-cognitive skills are widely recognized in economics as an important factor that affects various individual outcomes, including wages and employment. Non-cognitive skills can also serve as an additional explanation for the gender wage gap. This paper disentangles the complex relationship between non-cognitive skills and the gender wage gap based on Russian data. Data are collected ...

The note discusses a fallacy in the approach proposed by Ivan Canay (2011, The Econometrics Journal) for constructing a computationally simple two-step estimator in a quantile regression model with quantile-independent fixed effects. We formally prove that the estimator gives an incorrect inference for the constant term due to violation of the assumption about additive expansion ...

The paper discusses two errors in the approach proposed in Canay (2011) for constructing a computationally simple two-step estimator in a quantile regression model with quantile-independent fixed effects. Firstly, we show that Canay's assumption about n/T^s --> 0 for some s>1 is not strong enough and can entail severe bias or even non-existence of the ...
