Determinants of tourist spending – in cross-section studies and at Danish destinations

Forfatter: Carl Henrik Marcussen.

This article begins with a meta-analysis style review of the determinants of tourist spending according to more than 50 cross-sectional studies published in academic journal articles during the period 1995-2009. The studies are grouped using factor analysis based on the determinants included or not included in each study. Following the structured review, a conceptual model of the determinants of tourist spending is proposed.
