    FILM – INDUCED TOURISM: THE IMPACT OF DESTINATION EXPOSURE OF LOCALLY-MADE JAPANESE MOVIES ON TRAVEL INTENTION TO JAPAN

    No full text
    Abstract: Japan has long been a prominent film destination, having given the world Akira Kurosawa (1910-1998), the great film director and cult movie figure. The influence of Japan on Hollywood production is evident and well – established however there are limited studies concerning the influence of locally made Japanese movies in film – induced tourism in Japan. There exists an underutilized opportunity of destination exposure in Japanese film markets through locally made movies that can induce audiences’ travel behavior; thus, it is crucial to understand the impact of destination exposure specific in the Japanese film market. The study adapted the modified meaning transfer model, and this characterizes product placement as a transformative process whenever viewers can see the things without needing to utilize them. Experimental Quantitative research design was utilized in this research with 30 respondents chosen through purposive sampling. This established the following factors to effectively and objectively gather data: (1) treatment factors which is destination exposure, (2) the scope or variation of attributes in which the treatment factors were measured are affective attribute and affective affinity, (3) the manner in which the data were gathered and recorded through pre – testing and post – testing of a Likert scale modified instrument which measure travel intention through familiarity of culture and attractions and the desire to visit Japan, (4) the criteria provided the conclusions and implications for the recorded data as well as the treatment of paired T-test. The study found that destination image as a single determinant is significant factor in influencing travel intention of the participants. Age showed significant difference with travel intention before exposure to destination image while desired duration of travel is found to be significant in familiarity of destination image before exposure. Keywords: destination image, destination exposure, travel intention, modified meaning transfer model.

    Comparing Willingness to Pay for Organic, Natural, Locally Grown, and State Marketing Program Promoted Foods in the Mid-Atlantic Region

    No full text
    A choice experiment of Mid-Atlantic consumers was conducted to determine marginal willingness to pay for the attributes organic, natural, locally grown, and state marketing program promoted for strawberry preserves. The influence of purchasing venue on willingness to pay was also examined. Results indicated a price premium when purchased at a farmers market across all five states and versions. Organic was preferred to natural in only one state. Preference ordering between local and state program promoted varied. Consumers in Maryland and Pennsylvania clearly preferred local, while those in New Jersey seemed most likely to prefer the state program version.organic, natural, locally grown, state marketing program, choice experiment, Consumer/Household Economics, Demand and Price Analysis, Marketing,

    Local Marketing of Organic Food by Certified Organic Processors, Manufacturers, and Distributors

    Local organic food is garnering new interest. Using new data from a national survey of certified organic intermediaries, we examine local markets for organic food and assess which firms are likely to market locally. Approximately 25% of survey respondents primarily market their products locally, and 15% of the value of organic food (at the intermediate level) is sold locally. Larger firms are less likely to market locally, firms that handle a greater share of organic products are more likely to market locally, and the likelihood of marketing locally is lower the longer a firm has been certified organic.local food, local organic food, organic handlers, organic intermediaries, organic marketing, Agribusiness, Environmental Economics and Policy, Marketing,

    Locally analytic vectors in representations of locally

    No full text
    The goal of this memoir is to provide the foundations for the locally analytic representation theory that is required in three of the author's other papers on this topic. In the course of writing those papers the author found it useful to adopt a particular point of view on locally analytic representation theory: namely, regarding a locally analytic representation as being the inductive limit of its subspaces of analytic vectors (of various "radii of analyticity"). The author uses the analysis of these subspaces as one of the basic tools in his study of such representations. Thus in this memoir he presents a development of locally analytic representation theory built around this point of view. The author has made a deliberate effort to keep the exposition reasonably self-contained and hopes that this will be of some benefit to the reader

    Design and Fabrication of a Locally Made Plastic Shredder

    Plastic waste management is a growing environmental concern due to the increasing production and disposal of plastic materials, which contribute to pollution and ecological degradation. Conventional plastic shredders are often expensive and inaccessible to small-scale recyclers, necessitating the development of cost-effective and locally fabricated alternatives. The project focuses on designing and fabricating a locally made plastic shredder that addresses plastic waste management challenges. The methodology involved a series of steps including needs assessment, literature review, conceptual and detailed design, material selection, fabrication, assembly, testing, and optimization. The shredder was designed to be cost-effective and efficient, utilizing locally available materials and expertise. Materials used included Aluminium and steel alloys for the frame, copper wire for the motor, high-quality bearings, rubber seals, and various electrical components. Tools employed in the fabrication process ranged from hand tools and power tools to welding equipment and testing instruments. Safety gear was also emphasized to protect workers during the fabrication and operation processes. The testing phase covered functional testing, load testing, efficiency testing, safety assessments, durability testing, environmental testing, and quality control inspections. Design calculations focused on parameters such as shredding capacity, torque, shear force, blade design, hopper volume, material feed rate, structural integrity, energy consumption, and shredder efficiency. Results indicated that the locally made plastic shredder effectively shredded various types of plastic waste, with a satisfactory shredding capacity of 0.21 kg/hr and a shredder efficiency of 83.12%. The torque transmitted by the shaft was 62.50 Nm, and the shear force required to cut through plastic was 2843.5 N. The blade speed was calculated at 41.89 rads/sec, with a cutting speed of 4189 m/sec. The energy consumption of the shredder was 4.48 Kwh. The project concluded that locally made plastic shredders could significantly contribute to sustainable plastic waste management, resource conservation, and environmental protection

    Consumer Preferences for Locally Made Specialty Food Products Across Northern New England

    Does willingness to pay a premium for local specialty food products differ between consumers in Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont? Two food categories are investigated: low-end (5)andhighend(5) and high-end (20) products. Premia estimates are compared across states and across base prices within states using dichotomous choice contingent valuation methods. Results suggest that the three states of northern New England have many similarities, including comparable price premia for the lower-priced good. However, there is some evidence that the premium for the higher-priced good is greater for the pooled Vermont and Maine treatment than for the New Hampshire treatment. Vermont and New Hampshire residents are willing to pay a higher premium for a 20thanfora20 than for a 5 food item, while the evidence suggests that Maine residents are not.local specialty foods, willingness to pay, contingent valuation, Demand and Price Analysis, Food Consumption/Nutrition/Food Safety,
