Task 2
SUMMARY of RESULTS
The results of the data analysis show that at the present time the French spend substantially more than the other three groups. The British also spend a substantial amount but at the present time come in smaller numbers than the French. The French opinion of the resort is however equally spread, which indicates that French visitors do not agree on whether the resort is generally good or bad. This may explain the wide variation in spending which is seen in the French tourists.
The fact that the French have the potential to spend more would suggest that it may be important to further establish what exactly leads to this difference in opinion. This could be done by conducting more in-depth research into the experience of the visitor, for example distributing feedback surveys to all guests. This may be worthwhile as increasing customer opinion may encourage more French guests to return, thereby attracting customers who spend more money. It is also worth noting that the French seem more likely to come as families, and it is family groups who overall seem to spend the most money at the resort. Therefore it may be worthwhile to try to steer away...
This may be part of the reason for the split opinion of the French guests in itself.
When looking at each of the areas of customer opinion individually, customers seem to find the resort only adequate. It would appear that customers generally find the accommodation good or excellent, food adequate, location adequate. This would suggest that the most effort should be channeled into improving the location, so forming better links with the other areas of the island. It would also be beneficial to improve the food options which are available. It may also be useful to conduct more research into establishing what type of food options would be most welcomed by the visitors.
RECOMMENDATIONS
As a result of the data analysis, the following recommendations are made:
Conduct further research into customer experience at the resort
Improve infrastructure to link areas of the island
Improve range of food facilities
Establish a family-focused resort to which to attract those type of customers that will spend more money, e.g. The French families
Statistics and Their Importance to Research Investigation. Although all research activities do not require the use of statistical data analysis when an investigator wants to report upon the differences, effects and/or relationships between and amongst groups or phenomena (i.e. variables) there must a concerted effort to measure the phenomenon with as much precision and accuracy as possible (Mendenhall & Ramey, 1973). This is, of course, accomplished through the use of
Statistics and Juries In the video "How Statistics Fool Juries," Oxford mathematician Peter Donnelly attempts to demonstrate through a number of examples how statistics, when viewed in a common manner, can be misunderstood and how this can have legal repercussions. Through a number of thought experiments, Donnelly provides the audience with examples of how seemingly simple statistics can be misinterpreted and how many more variables must be taken into account when
One of the most common fallacies is to confuse correlation with causation, but the two are actually distinct. My demonstrating that construction of snowmen and outbreak of acne occur simultaneously does not mean that snowmen produce acne. It may imply an underlying matter, such as the snow itself may contain some component that may instigate the outbreak, or the children who build the snowmen may be particularly vulnerable to
This type of measurement is best used when the data has also been captured at the ordinal or ratio level as the orthogonality of the data set is reliable (Marshall, Ruiz, Bredillet, 2008). Extrapolating statistics to a broader population is also dependent on the approach of randomization used. When a solid methodology, sampling frame and approach to randomization have all been defined, inferential data is often used in organizations
As explained earlier, statisticians in the academe and in specialist industries apply principles and techniques of statistics in different ways. Statisticians in the academe apply their knowledge of statistics in more scientific approaches: multivariate analyses, for example, are reported in a scientific manner, usually communicated in a scholarly approach through journal articles and published or unpublished research reports. Industry specialists, meanwhile, implement statistical principles and techniques more creatively, for their
Statistics are the tools to describe the systematic body of information that assist policy makers or managers to make decision about important issues. Statistics provide the accurate methodology to draw the accurate inference from the sample of data to the full population. Despite the benefits derived from applied statistics, there are challenges that policy makers face in measuring social issues. Answer to Question A In public sector, statistical approach is used to
