Statistical process to rank user's generated contents (UGC) shared on virtual networks as reviews and notes are compared to OTA's ranking process assigned to evaluate Hotels services. Three operational hotels classication methods are discussed from three comprehensive approaches: heuristics, functional and algorithmic classications. The sample findings indicate possible statistical distortions on the total amount of the reviews used to aggregate to rank hotels and accommodations as top lists in the OTA's commercial sites.

Processos de rankeamento (ranking) estatístico dos conteúdos gerados pelos usuários (CGU) compartilhados em redes na forma de comentários (reviews) e representados nas notas são comparados aos processos de ordenação voltados para avaliação dos hotéis e serviços. São analisadas três modelos operacionais de classicação abrangentes como: heurística, funcional e algorítmica. Os resultados da amostra demonstraram possíveis distorções estatísticas no total das revisões atribuídas para posicionar hotéis e meios de hospedagens como top lists nos sites comerciais das OTA's.Departamento de Economia, Gestão, Engenharia Industrial e Turismo da Universidade de Aveiro2018-01-01T00:00:00Zjournal articlejournal articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.34624/rtd.v0i30.1858oai:proa.ua.pt:article/1858Journal of Tourism & Development; No 30 (2018); 111-124Revista Turismo & Desenvolvimento; n.º 30 (2018); 111-1242182-14531645-9261reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://proa.ua.pt/index.php/rtd/article/view/1858https://doi.org/10.34624/rtd.v0i30.1858https://proa.ua.pt/index.php/rtd/article/view/1858/1486https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessRamos, Marcos Gonçalves2022-09-26T10:56:26Zoai:proa.ua.pt:article/1858Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:05:17.061534Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
