Composite indicator through multivariate analysis of variance applied to the tourism sector
Abstract
At present, the process of measuring tourist indicators in Pinar del Río does not provide a composite indicator that offers a value as a measure of aggregation of the behavior of tourism indicators, since no procedure that considers several aspects simultaneously is used to obtain it; This causes the decision-making process to be affected. In this sense, the present work consists in developing a composite indicator for the different hotel chains through the use of Multivariate Analysis of Variance techniques, which allows obtaining a global measure to establish a ranking that supports the decision-making process in the different hotel chains in Pinar del Río. Statistical-mathematical methods were used, among others, in order to construct composite indicators.
