The Role of Profitability in Estimating Stock Returns by Following a Model
of Belief Updating in Iran's Capital Market
- Abstract: Analysis of investors’ behavior is a new scientific field in financial behavior, which is a good tool for acquiring this knowledge. Uncertain circumstances cause investors to make systematic mistakes and face cognitive biases in their expectations and decision making, including in assessing stock returns. The purpose of this study is to investigate the extent to which investors follow the pattern of belief updating as a cognitive bias in the use of earnings accounting information to evaluate the stock returns of 205 active companies in Tehran Stock Exchange. Multivariate regression analysis was performed using Eviews 9 software. The results show that by controlling year and industry effects, investors use profitability for most of the past years in following the pattern of belief updating based on two indicators of reducing realized earnings per share and equity returns. The research model is also confirmed by the sensitivity analysis and controlling company effects based on the equity return index. However, it is not confirmed by the two indicators of realized earnings per share and return on assets.
Identifying and prioritizing Factors Affecting the Revisit Intention of
the Destination Brand in Iran with the Best-Worst Method
- Abstract: The main purpose of the present study is to identify and investigate the factors affecting the revisit intention of a tourist destination and to prioritize them based on their level of importance. There are many factors that influence the revisit intention of a place, however, not many studies have been conducted to address the issue of identifying and prioritizing them. Accordingly, this study seeks to fill this gap.This study identified more than 200 factors through a comprehensive literature review and expert’s opinions and classified them into 17 main factors. These identified factors were then provided to tourism experts and they were then rated, using the Delphi method. Ultimately, 3 factors were removed and 14 factors remained as factors affecting the revisit intention. The prioritization of these factors and their importance was established using the Multi-Criteria Decision Method, i.e. the Best-worst method (BWM).The results showed that the behavior and culture of local people in a tourist destination is the most important factor for tourists in leading them to revisit that destination. The perceived value factor was ranked second and the motivation factor was ranked third, in this respect. Moreover, the factor of Word of Mouth (WOM) was the least important factor and therefore was ranked last.The findings of this study are useful in helping tourism marketing and branding strategists to focus on the right metrics to make more effective decisions and encourage people to revisit tourist destinations.
