The authors present a directional distance model where quality of care is brought in by treating mortality in each hospital as a strongly disposable “bad output.” After deriving pure technical and scale inefficiencies under strong disposability, the authors derive “congestion” inefficiencies via allowing weak disposability. A second stage, “seemingly unrelated” regression of these inefficiencies against hospital level variables like spare capacity, inpatient-to-outpatient ratio, and bed turnover rate allows pinpointing the critical areas for hospital performance improvement. Evidence shows that the smallest hospitals are operating on an inefficient scale. Moreover, allocation of specialists should be done very carefully, as shortage of specialists seems to cause congestion inefficiency, while having too many specialists causes technical inefficiency.

This article describes how the attitudes and perception of residents can directly affect ecotourism development by changing the ability to generate income, employment and by improving the quality of life. This article identifies and assesses the impacts of ecotourism in the communities in Mysore, India. Ecotourism impact was measured by a 26 item scale measuring local residents' perceptions and attitudes. Data was collected using the questionnaire method with 221 randomly distributed questionnaires collected. This article reveals there was significant support to further tourism development since the residents perceived that there was increased investment in infrastructures and a higher quality of life, increased employment opportunities – especially for a population with deep roots in agriculture. Now, there was an increased chance for residents to explore other jobs in the tourism industry and improved pride in their cultures and traditions in the community. Furthermore, to ensure the success of tourism development, an increased amount of involvement and participation from local residents is pertinent.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the influence of indigenous people’s perceived the quality of life (QoL) on the tribe in the process of tourism development. In the survey, 8 tribes in Alishan were selected as the research objects, and a total of 827 valid questionnaires were collected through random sampling based on the proportion of each tribe's households. After statistical analysis, the findings of this study are as follows: 1. In terms of the influence on QoL, indigenous people’s perceived higher are "I am proud of our tribe". 2. Different demographic variables have an influence on the perceived QoL of indigenous peoples. 3. Those whose family work has nothing to do with the tourism industry have a higher perception of the influence on the QoL. Based on the above findings, this study not only gives suggestions to indigenous tribes and tourism sectors of the government, but also puts forward specific research reference directions for future tribal tourism researchers.
