Abstract

Identifying the particularities of each country in terms of domestic trip structure and length ofstay contributes to studying the domestic tourism market and understanding the behavior ofresident tourists. This study shows that although the CFA statistical method (correspondence factor analysis)entails quantitative results, their interpretation provides support for qualitative assessmentsrepresented (in the current situation) by the resident tourists’ profile, shaped according to thelength of stay during their domestic trips. At the same time, the processed data provide the basisfor identifying, on the one hand, similarities and, on the other hand, differences between thetourism profiles of the 27 analyzed countries and implicitly related to the behavior of residenttourists. In our perspective, this quantitative research could be continued with a qualitative one thatwould identify the reasons why the residents in each country prefer certain lengths of stay.
