Popis: Tourism research has been conducted to investigate tourism demand, tourism development, and the flow of tourists through destinations. However, few studies have been conducted that use economic indicators to examine the interrelationship among different attractions within a destination setting. Additionally, studies that research the influence of attendance at tourist venues on hotel occupancy are limited. This research uses economic indicators to explore whether groups of attractions share the same visitors because of the similarity among specific attractions. It also utilizes those indicators to examine the influence of attractions, convention, and special event attendance on Mobile, Alabama. The study was made possible by a three-year grant from the Mobile Convention and Visitor's Corporation.
