The generous databases provided by current internationalstatistics can be processed by means of statistical and mathematical methods and software, inorder to analyze different aspects of the tourism market in terms of size, structure and evolution. Atthe same time, the understanding of the tourists’ buying and consumption behavior can contributeto the shaping of a country's tourism profile, depending on a particular feature or economicindicator. In this study, the CFA method (Correspondence Factor Analysis) and the SPSS software(Statistical Package for Social Sciences) – used in data processing – provided the support forshaping the profile of each analyzed European country according to the size and structure of theexpenditures incurred by the domestic trips taken by resident tourists.
