Total Variance Explained by Factors

(Source: Data processing results via SPSS software)

Through the above test results, we can see that the scale groups have Cronbach's Alpha coefficients greater than 0.6 and have total correlation coefficients of observed variables greater than 0.3. When removing an observed variable from the factor, the Cronbach's Alpha coefficient is lower, reducing the reliability of the scale. From there, we can conclude that the observed variables in those factor groups are suitable for further testing.

2.2.3.2 Exploratory factor analysis (EFA)

For the independent variable

After testing the reliability of the scale, we conduct exploratory factor analysis, abbreviated as EFA, to reduce a set of k observed variables into a set F (with F

< k) more meaningful factors. According to Hair and Associates (1998): “Exploratory factor analysis is a statistical analysis method used to reduce a set of interdependent observed variables into a smaller set of variables (called factors) so that they are meaningful but still contain most of the information content of the original set of variables”.

Analyzing data through SPSS 20 software, we have the results

Looking at the table above, we can see:

- KMO coefficient = 0.813 so factor analysis is appropriate.

- Sig. (Barlett's Test) = 0.000 (Sig. < 0.05) shows that the variables are correlated with each other in the population.

Looking at the table above, we can see:

- Eigenvalue = 1.107 > 1 represents the portion of variation explained by each extracted factor that best summarizes the information.

- Cumulative variance = 70,700% >50%. This shows that 70,700% of the data variation is explained by 8 factors in the model.

After exploratory factor analysis for independent variables. The correlation coefficient between variables ST1, ST3 and the factor "Travel Interest" is less than 0.5. Therefore, these two variables were removed from the factor. At the same time, the difference between the factor loading coefficient of the factor "Tour price" of variable ST2 in the factor "Travel Interest" is greater than or equal to 0.3. Therefore, variable ST2 is included in the factor "Tour price".

Name and annotate the factors:

- Factor 1: “Tour price”. Includes variables: GC3 – “Diverse payment methods”

GC2 – “The company has many promotional programs for tours”

GC1 – “Reasonable tour price”

ST2 – “I like visiting historical sites”

- Factor 2: “Tourism attitude”. Includes variables: TD1 – “I am interested in Hue tourism development”

TD3 – “For me, traveling is a favorite experience”

TD2 – “I like to travel with friends and relatives”

- Factor 3: “Reference group”. Includes variables: NTK3 – “Local people suggest I choose the tour” NTK2 – “The tourist community suggests I choose the tour” NTK1 – “Friends and relatives suggest I choose the tour”

- Factor 4: “Travel experience”. Includes variables: KN3 – “I was satisfied with the previous tour” KN2 – “I enjoyed the previous tour”

KN1 – “I have a lot of experience participating in Hue 1 day tour”

- Factor 5: “Travel motivation”. Includes variables:

DC2 – “I chose the tour because I wanted to have fun with friends and family”

DC1 – “I chose the tour to relieve stress”

DC3 – “I chose the tour to explore and learn about Hue culture”

- Factor 6: “Tour advertising”. Including variables: QC1 – “Attractive tour advertising”

QC3 – “Tour information was passed on to me by word of mouth”

QC2 – “Complete tour information, easy to find”

- Factor 7: “Availability and quality of tours”

CL1 – “Tours are always available, diverse

CL2 – “The tour has many attractive and interesting destinations” CL3 – “The tour quality is guaranteed”

- Factor 8: “Tour booking location”. Includes variables: DD1 – “Convenient tour booking location”

DD2 – “I can book a tour by phone” DD3 – “I can book a tour by Internet”

For the dependent variable: “Decision to choose Hue 1-day tour product”

In order to check the suitability of the data for factor analysis, using the index of KMO test and Balett test to conduct a general assessment of tourists' decision to purchase Hue 1-day tour products through 3 observed variables.

The results are shown in the following table:

Looking at the table above, we can see:

- KMO coefficient = 0.694 > 0.05

- Sig. = 0.000 so using factor analysis is appropriate

- Eigenvalues ​​> 1

- Cumulative variance = 68.732% > 50% so it meets the requirements.

- All variables have factor loadings > 0.05

The model is adjusted after analyzing and testing the reliability of the scale.

Adjust as follows:

Multiple regression analysis

After analyzing and testing the reliability of the scale, we have the calibration model:

2.2.3.3 Pearson correlation coefficient matrix analysis

To test the Pearson correlation coefficient, we first need to create representative variables from the final factor rotation results. Specifically as follows:

- QD – Variable representing the factor group “Decision to choose Hue 1-day tour product”

- GC – Variable representing the factor group “Tour price”

- TD – Variable representing the factor group “Tourism attitude”

- NTK – Variable representing the factor group “Reference group”

- KN – Variable representing the factor group “Travel experience”

- DC – Variable representing the factor group “Travel motivation”

- QC – Variable representing the factor group “Tour advertising”

- CL – Variable representing the factor group “Availability and quality of tours”

- DD – Variable representing the factor group “Tour booking location”

The results of the linear correlation coefficient statistics are shown as follows:

The correlation results show that Sig. correlation between DC variable and dependent variable QD is greater than 0.05 (0.069 > 0.05). Thus, this variable will be eliminated before being put into regression processing. The remaining independent variables: TD, KN, NTK, DD, QC, CL, GC Sig. each of these independent variables with the dependent variable is less than 0.05. This proves that there is a close correlation with the dependent variable QD, so it should be retained to run the linear regression equation.

Regression analysis left 7 variables, which are: TD, KN, NTK, DD, QC, CL, GC and one dependent variable is QD.

2.2.3.4 Multiple regression analysis

The correlation coefficient test shows that there are 7 independent variables that are correlated with the dependent variable, meeting the Sig coefficient condition. Therefore, it should be included in the multivariate regression analysis. The multivariate regression analysis helps to determine which factors contribute more, less or not to the change of the dependent variable in order to provide appropriate solutions.

The multiple regression model has the following form:

QD = + * GC + *TD + *NTK + *KN + *QC + *CL + *DD

In there:

“...0,...1,...2,...3,...4,...5,...6,...7”: Regression coefficients

Dependent variable QD: “Decision to choose Hue 1-day tour product” GC: “Price”

TD: “Travel attitude” NTK: “Reference group” KN: “Travel experience” QC: “Tour advertisement”

CL: “Tour availability and quality” DD: “Tour booking location”

- Adjusted R Square reflects the influence of independent variables on the dependent variable. In this case, the 7 independent variables included affect 58% of the change in the dependent variable, the remaining 42% is due to variables outside the model and random errors .
