The Influence of Hedonic and Utilitarian Motivators on Likelihood to Buy a Tourism Package
2013
To fully understand the pattern of choice, it is important that any explanation of consumer behavior to be accompanied by a complete understanding of the interplay between a consumer’s functional goals and experiential preferences within the decision context. Consumer researchers have increasingly begun to investigate consumer choice based on distinctions that involve the purchase and consumption of goods for pleasure versus for more utilitarian and instrumental purposes. Consumers are often faced with these types of choices between hedonic and utilitarian alternatives that are at least partly driven by emotional desires rather than cold cognitive deliberations. This research approaches fac…
Buying Intentions Influenced by Various Determinants in Tourism
2014
Marketing has acquired a central role in tourism because it helps organizations to create value in transactions with buyers. Thus, this important area of any business process is used to educate consumers, to add value to their experience in tourism, and to seek new ways to reward loyalty through innovative schemes (e.g., programs for frequent travelers). This paper presents the examination of the responses of 154 tourists in relation to their intention to purchase a travel package and the factors that are usually decisive in the decision making process regarding tourism services, factors that could also create the loyalty that any tourism enterprise can create through marketing.
Nekustāmā īpašuma vērtēšanas modeļi
2015
Bakalaura darbs veltīts nekustāmā īpašuma masveida vērtēšanas problemātikai. Bakalaura darbā apskatīti nekustāmā īpašuma masveida vērtēšanas pamatprincipi un vērtēšanā izmantotie modeļu tipi. Darbā apskatīta ratio analīzes metodoloģija, kas tiek izmantota masveida vērtēšanas rezultātu novērtēšanai. Aprakstot spēkā esošo dzīvokļa īpašuma vērtēšanas modeli, ko izmanto Valsts zemes dienests, darbā piedāvāts vērtēt dzīvokļa īpašumu kā vienotu īpašumu, nedalot tās vērtību atsevišķās sastāvdaļas, tādās kā zeme, koplietošanas telpas un dzīvokļa īpašuma telpu grupas, kā arī veikti citi esošā modeļa uzlabojumi. Pārejot uz vienota īpašuma vērtēšanas principu, ar lineārās regresijas palīdzību iegūts j…
(p,2)-equations resonant at any variational eigenvalue
2018
We consider nonlinear elliptic Dirichlet problems driven by the sum of a p-Laplacian and a Laplacian (a (p,2) -equation). The reaction term at ±∞ is resonant with respect to any variational eigenvalue of the p-Laplacian. We prove two multiplicity theorems for such equations.
Quasi-Homogeneous Linear Systems on with Base Points of Multiplicity multiplicity 5
2003
In this paper we consider linear systems of ℙ2 with all but one of the base points of multiplicity 5. We give an explicit way to evaluate the dimensions of such systems
Comparison of frictional resistance between passive self-ligating brackets and slide-type low-friction ligature brackets during the alignment and lev…
2019
Background To compare the frictional resistance between passive self-ligating brackets and conventional brackets with low-friction ligature under bracket/archwire and root/bone interface during dental alignment and leveling. Material and methods A tridimensional model of the maxilla and teeth of a patient treated with conventional brackets, and slide ligatures was generated employing the SolidWorks modeling software. SmartClip self-ligating brackets and Logic Line conventional brackets were assembled with slide low-friction ligatures, utilizing archwires with different diameters and alloys used for the alignment and leveling stage. Friction caused during the bracket/archwire interface and s…
Multiplicity of solutions for asymptotically linear $n$-th order boundary value problems
2007
In this paper we investigate existence and multiplicity of solutions, with prescribed nodal properties, to a two-point boundary value problem of asymptotically linear $n$-th order equations. The proof follows a shooting approach and it is based on the weighted eigenvalue theory for linear $n$-th order boundary value problems
Associations of physical performance and physical activity with mental well-being in middle-aged women
2021
Abstract Background To investigate whether physical performance is independently of physical activity (PA) associated with positive and negative dimensions of mental well-being in middle-aged women. Methods Data were drawn from the Estrogenic Regulation of Muscle Apoptosis (ERMA) study in which women 47 to 55 years were randomly selected from the Finnish National Registry. They (n = 909) participated in measurements of physical performance (handgrip force, knee extension force, vertical jumping height, maximal walking speed, and six-minute walking distance). Both mental well-being (the Centre for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, the International Positive and Negative Affect Schedule…
Comparison of different theory models and basis sets in the calculation of 13C NMR chemical shifts of natural products.
2004
The influence of the calculation method in mimicking experimental 13C NMR chemical shifts of 15 low-polarity natural products singularly containing 10–20 carbon atoms was investigated by employing different quantum chemistry approaches and basis sets, both in the preliminary geometry optimizations and in the following single-point 13C GIAO calculations of the NMR chemical shifts. The geometries of the involved species were optimized at the PM3, HF, B3LYP and mPW1PW91 levels whereas the 13C NMR parameters were determined at the HF, B3LYP and mPW1PW91 levels. Different combinations of basis sets were also tested. The consistency and efficiency of the considered combinations of geometry optimi…
Technical and economical comparison between NdFeB and hard ferrites linear electrical generators from sea waves
2015
In this paper the authors perform a technical-economic comparison of two different Tubular Permanent Magnet Linear Machines for sea waves generation by using finite elements analysis. The first configuration includes ferrite rings while the second configuration includes neodymium-iron-boron rings. In order to compare the two types in economic and technical terms, a detailed analysis of the main figures of merit of the two configurations has been carried out. In particular, significant data such as flux distribution, rated voltage and current, axial force, electric power, realization cost and maintenance cost have been compared.
