摘要:In this paper the holiday behaviour of the Dutch population is described, using Dutch panel data. Several econometric models have been applied and the results of these models have been compared. A Tobit model with heteroscedasticity has been selected as the best specification, and the results of this specific model have been used to construct a microsimulation model (MSM). The paper shows that microsimulation is a rich instrument to describe the (changes in) participation probability and holiday expenditure of Dutch households.
