Motivational Determinates Of International Pleasure Time
Abstract
This research examines the motivationsfor overseas travel using the concept of "push" and "pull" factors. Data were examined from four countries—Japan, France, West Germany, and the United Kingdom. The results indicate that individuals from each of the four countries travel to satisfy the same unmet needs (pushfactors); however, attractions for choosing a particular destination (pullfactors) appear to differ among the countries. The results also indicate that the level of importance that individuals attach to the various factors differs among the countries.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
