The questionnaires for analysis were collected by sampling the visitors in Tainan first-grade historical sites. The data of questionnaires investigation was analyzed using methodology of independent means T-test and one-way ANOVA. The above methodology was applied to test the differences in total travel cost according to visitor's identity. The recreation benefit of Tainan first-grade historical sites was also estimated by travel cost method. The trip demand function was constructed by different count data models, namely, Truncated Poisson (TPOIS), Truncated Negative Binomial (TNB) and On-Site Poisson. This study has found that: (1) the more appropriate models were TPOIS and On-Site Poisson to estimate recreation benefit of Tainan first-grade historical sites. (2) CS under TPOIS model was the highest, and under On-Site Poisson model was the lowest. (3) the total recreation benefits of Tainan first-grade historical sites were about NT$ 6 billion per year. |
