Family Vacation Decision-Making —A Replication and Extension

Abstract
This article reports results of research which replicated and extended a previously reported study on family vacation decision-making. The replication findings provided confirmation of the general conclusions of the earlier study concerning influence structure in the decision process but indicated that results pertaining to lodging choice criteria may be incomplete. Modifications to the research design of the previous study provided new insights into how influence structure and lodging choice criteria vary between family and couple vacationers and between the vacationing clientele of hotel/motel chains versus that of independently owned hotels and motels.
