Abstract: Abstract This study develops an intertemporal efficiency model designed to accommodate unbalanced panel data. In an intertemporal efficiency evaluation, there is no guarantee that sample sets of panel data over continuous periods will be balanced, especially in a competitive industry. Therefore, the proposed model is offering a more flexible approach to intertemporal efficiency assessment. The other main contribution is the establishment of indicators, TPR and IPR, which are used to identify the influences of frontier shift and individual change on efficiency. The proposed model is used to evaluate a dataset of tourist hotels from 2007 through 2011, and the empirical results provide several findings for tourist hotel management.
