Household Consumption of Food‐Away‐From‐Home: Total Expenditure and by Type of Food Facility
基于家庭生产理论,研究家庭收入、时间价值、规模与构成等因素如何影响在外食品总支出,并分析这些因素在不同类型食品设施(传统餐厅、快餐店等)中的差异作用。
Abstract Consistent with prior expectations based on household production theory, household income, time value, size and composition, and the environment in which production and consumption occurred were all important determinants of total household expenditures on food‐away‐from‐home. However, the importance of these factors varied by type of food facility: conventional restaurants, fast‐food facilities, and other commercial establishments. Decomposition of the tobit elasticities indicated the differential importance of market participation effects of household size, income, and time value by level of the variable and by type of food facility.
