description AbstractCruise tourism in Uruguay has grown since the season 2004-2005, determining an important contribution of foreign currency each season (April to October of each year).Therefore, it is considered relevant to characterize the economic variables involved in this activity, particularly expenditure.Using data from Ministerio de Turismo (Ministry of Tourism) of cruise ships of the 2010-2011 season, this work compares the typology that emerged applying hierarchical and non-hierarchical clustering methods, with those emerged when applying the network analysis (SNA) to the expenditure data in cruise passengers.Previously the authors had built a typology of cruise passengers, resulting from applying Ward's algorithm distances for binary variables (spend or not spend) in five items of expenditure.Cruise data is obtained from a sample of passengers at through a face-to-face survey with complex sample design.Information on people and spending is available since the 2005-2006 season; the present work focuses on the 2010-2011 season.On the binary expenses in each cruise, graphs are constructed, to which several metrics are applied for its description.Using the previous typology of expenditures, the authors study the association between socio-demographic characteristics of the cruise passengers with the groups created previously and the communities identified with the SNA, to determine patterns of behavior considering the expense when changing the type of cruise.

El turismo de cruceros en Uruguay ha crecido desde la temporada 2004-2005, determinando un importante aporte de divisas cada temporada (abril a octubre de cada año). Por tanto, se estima relevante caracterizar las variables económicas involucradas en esta actividad, en particular, el gasto. A partir de los datos del Ministerio de Turismo de cruceros de la temporada 2010-2011, este trabajo compara la tipología surgida de aplicar métodos de clusters jerárquicos y no jerárquicos, con la que surge al aplicar el análisis de redes (SNA) a los datos del gasto en cruceristas. Previamente los autores habían construido una tipología de cruceristas, resultante de aplicar el algoritmo de Ward sobre distancias para variables binarias (gasta o no gasta) en cinco rubros de gasto.Los datos de cruceros se obtienen de una muestra de pasajeros a través de una encuesta cara a cara con diseño muestral complejo. Se cuenta con información de personas y gasto desde la temporada 2005-2006 y el presente trabajo se focaliza en la temporada 2010-2011.Para evaluar la performance del análisis de redes se trabaja con cuatro cruceros, (seleccionados al azar por probabilidad proporcional al aforo de cada uno) sobre los que, a partir de los gastos binarios, se construyen grafos, a los cuales se les aplican las diferentes métricas para su descripción. Usando la tipología previa de gastos, se estudia la asociación de las características socio-demográficas de los cruceristas con los grupos creados y con las comunidades identificadas con el SNA, para determinar eventuales patrones de comportamiento al cambiar de tipo de crucero. application/pdf text/html https://ojs.economicas.uba.ar/CIMBAGE/article/view/1341 spa CIMBAGE - IADCOM - Facultad de Ciencias Económicas - Universidad de Buenos Aires https://ojs.economicas.uba.ar/CIMBAGE/article/view/1341/1990 https://ojs.economicas.uba.ar/CIMBAGE/article/view/1341/2239 Cuadernos del CIMBAGE; Vol. 1 No. 21 (2019): Cuadernos del CIMBAGE; 27-64 Cuadernos del CIMBAGE; Vol. 1 Núm. 21 (2019): Cuadernos del CIMBAGE; 27-64 1669-1830 1666-5112 análisis de redes clustering gastos de cruceristas métricas Network Analysis Clustering Cruise Expenses Metrics Study of expenditure on cruise tourists in Uruguay for the 2010-2011 season using network analysis Estudio del gasto en turistas de cruceros en Uruguay para la temporada 2010-2011 mediante el análisis de redes info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=cimbage&d=1341_oai
