Until now, most of the studies about the impulse buying have focused mainly on the product of off-line shop, while there have relatively been very few studies about the product in internet shopping mall. The goal of this study was to understand Impulse Buying Behavior(IBB) for digital contents in the internet. Data has been collected from 278 respondents. The questionnaire method was adopted to collect the data for this study. The research was conducted by using SPSS 12.0 and AMOS 5.0. It was found that as follows: First, marketing stimulation factors, such as price, product, promotion was related positively to FLOW. Second, marketing stimulation factors was related partly positively to IBB. Third, FLOW has mediating effects in the relations between marketing stimulation factors and IBB. Finally, Self-Behavior Control and Sensation Seeking Tendancy has moderating effect in the IBB process. Thus, It also provides a core strategic Implication with Digital Contents Marketers.

Consumers tend to perceive the shoes as just their footwear to protect and comfort foot and fashion products to decorate and express their self-images. Even though online market research analysis indicated shoes consumption is important in daily life of consumers, there is limited research that was conducted specifically on shoes e-market. The research investigates the process of shoes' e-impulse buying focusing on the effects of shopping orientation, marketing stimulus and consumers' perceived risk in shoes market at Internet. A total of 408 self-administered questionnaires were obtained from universities students, who had experienced the e-impulse buying of shoes at least once for the last six months. Results confirmed that consumers who had higher hedonic shopping orientation or brand shopping orientation were more likely to consider the marketing stimuli (e.g., promotion stimuli and product stimuli), whereas consumers who had higher economic shopping orientation were consider the lower marketing stimuli and the more perceived functional risk in the e-shopping context of shoes. For shoes, marketing stimulus had directly positive effects on e-impulse buying, while consumers' perceived risk had no significant effects on e-impulse buying. The findings suggest that the market stimulus, which is affected by consumers' shopping orientation, is an important factor in triggering e-impulse buying of shoes.

The purposes of this study were to examine the conceptual structure of consumer characteristics and marketing elements affecting impulsive buying behavior of the CATV home-shopper on fashion products, and to compare the differences of consumer characteristics and marketing elements between impulsive buying shoppers and non-impulsive buying shoppers in CATV home-shopping. We collected data from 263 females of CATV home-shoppers in Busan. Data were analyzed by factor analysis, t- test, $\chi$2-test, and discriminant analysis. The results showed that the exploratory tendency of CATV home-shoppers was consisted of Patronage-orientation, and Product- orientation. The marketing elements perceived by CATV home-shoppers were composed of Promotion, Product and Payment method. There were differences of consumer characteristics and marketing elements between impulsive buying shoppers and non impulsive buying shoppers. Especially, impulsive tendency of shoppers and promotion factor of marketing were significant variables in the impulsive buying behavior of CATV home-shopping. The results provide information about impulsive buying behavior in CATV home-shopping, useful to consumer behavior researchers and retailers.

Prior research on consumer psychology has primarily focused on when and why consumers exhibit impulsive behavior, such as impulse buying. This study focuses on physical stimulation during an impulse purchase as another meaningful factor. Specifically, this study examines whether thirst depletes cognitive resources. The results of two experiments show that impulse purchase tendency increases when consumers are thirsty (Exp. 1), and that the loss of self-control is based on the relationship between thirst and impulse purchase tendency (Exp. 2). These findings suggest that physical stimulation, such as thirst, may be a useful indicator of impulsive behavior in consumers.

Impulsive buying has been considered as one of the major negative shopping behavior. Indeed, it happened more easily in the Internet shopping area. This study attempted to examine the influence of personality on the compulsive buying tendency of college students who are actively shopping clothing and apparels through Internet. The results of the current study showed that there are four types of compulsive buying tendency such as 'diversion', 'no-plan', 'buyer/ product-stimuli' and 'promotion-stimuli.' It seemed that personality such as sensation seeking, need-for cognition, self-esteem, and face-consciousness had influence on the impulsive buying tendency. More specifically, people with low self-esteem and high face-consciousness tend to have more impulsive buying tendency. The relationship between each of the impulsive buying tendency and personality had been discussed.

국가들 간의 차이는 국제적 소비자행동 연구의 근간이 되며 글로벌기업의 전략 구상에 중요한 변수로 작용한다. 본 연구에서는 의복충동구매에 대한 국가간 이해를 증진시키기 위해 한국과 미국의 대학생들을 대상으로 의복충동구매와 구매에 영향을 미치는 쇼핑감정에 차이가 있는지를 살펴보고 쇼핑감정이 의복충동구매에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 살펴보고자 한다. 선행연구를 바탕으로 질문지를 개발하였고, 한국(N = 412)과 미국(N = 290) 각각의 대도시에 위치한 대학교를 무작위 선정하여 정규강의시간 전후에 자원자들을 대상으로 자료를 수집하였다. 분석 결과, 미국대학생들에 비해 한국대학생들은 구체적 구매의도가 없는 상태에서 점포를 둘러본 후에 구매할 것을 결정하는 등의 계획적 충동구매나 다른 목적으로 점포에 들렀다가 계획에 없었던 필요한 것 혹은 기억나는 의류제품을 구매하는 등의 상기된 충동구매를 더 많이 하는 경향이 있었다. 그러나 미국 대학생들의 경우, 구매의도는 없었으나 새로운 스타일이나 최신 의류제품을 보았을 때 충동적으로 구매를 하는 패션지향적 충동구매가 한국대학생들에 비해 더 많이 나타나는 경향이 있었다. 또한 소비자들이 쇼핑할 때 느끼는 쇼핑감정 중 긍정적인 쇼핑감정은 미국대학생들이 한국대학생들보다 더 많이 느끼는 것으로 나타났다. 한국과 미국 대학생들은 모두 쇼핑과정에서 긍정적 감정을 느낄 때 여러 유형의 의복충동구매 가능성이 높게 나타났으나 부정적 쇼핑감정이 발생했을 때는 한국 대학생들만이 패션지향적인 충동구매를 하는 경향이 있었다. 이러한 결과는 의류제품을 쇼핑할 때 두 나라 대학생 모두에게 쇼핑감정 특히, 긍정적 감정은 구매의도를 자극하여 충동구매를 조장하는 중요한 역할을 담당함을 보여주었다. 이러한 연구결과는 의복충동구매와 쇼핑감정 간의 관계를 이해하고자하는 연구자들과 리테일러들에게 필요한 정보들을 제공해준다.

In recent years, with the continuous integrative development of e-commerce and social media, social commerce, as a trust-centered social transaction mode, has become an important performance form of e-commerce. The good experience of online community and abundant user-generated content (UGC) attract more and more users and businesses to participate in the community contribution. In this context, the cost of accessing information is continuously decreasing, which not only makes the purchase process more concise and efficient, but also greatly increases the possibility of consumers' impulsive consumption. However, there are very few empirical studies on the internal influencing mechanism of consumers' impulsive consumption based on the characteristics of UGC for social commerce. In view of this, based on S-O-R model, this study constructs a model of consumers' impulsive consumption in the context of social commerce from the characteristics of UGC, with perceived risk as the mediating variable and tie strength as the moderating variable. The results show that content authenticity, content usefulness, and content valence of UGC have significant negative impacts on consumers' risk perception in the process of purchase decision-making, and consumers' perceived risk has a significant negative impact on consumers' impulsive consumption. Meanwhile, the tie strength between UGC producer and UGC receiver plays a moderating role between content usefulness and perceived risk, as well as between perceived risk and impulsive consumption. Finally, combined with the above findings, this study provides effective suggestions for relevant participants in social commerce in terms of business management.

Consumer's impulse buying behavior is extensive in everyday contexts. Credit cards promote spending by making the transaction simpler and by removing the immediate need for money. College students grown up in a credit card society attain cards at college's time and keep cards for 10 years over. In an effort to extend understanding of consumer behavior across cultures, this paper examines the cultural differences of impulse buying behavior and credit card use between Korean and American college students, and to investigate the relationships between impulse buying behavior and credit card use in each group. Data were obtained from student credit card users attending universities in metropolitan areas in Korea(N=154) and America(N=194). Data were analyzed using by Confirmatory Factor Analysis, MANOVA, MDA, and Regression. The results indicated there are significant differences of fashion-oriented impulse buying and credit card use between American and Korean college students. The impulse buying behavior is likely to increase for both Korean and American students who use credit cards for spending. Findings suggest that credit card use is important in predicting impulse buying behavior across these two cultures. Implications are drawn for the increasing global phenomenon impulse buying behavior and credit card use.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of social face sensitivity on impulse buying tendency and satisfaction. This study was also to investigate the effects on the mediating effects of the impulse buying tendency in the relationship between social face sensitivity and satisfaction. For this purpose, this study was conducted to 266 subjects living in Busan, Korea. And the data was analyzed by SPSS 22 and Amos 25. The results of the study were as follows. First, others conscious social face and formality social face were related to impulse buying tendency. However, shame conscious social face was partially related to impulse buying tendency. Second, suggestion impulse buying and reminder impulse buying had significant effect on satisfaction, however stimulus impulse buying and pure impulse buying had not significant effect on satisfaction. Third, the empirical results showed others conscious social face had significant positive effect on satisfaction. But, formality social face and shame conscious social face have not significant effect on satisfaction. Finally, this study also found the mediating effects of the suggestion impulse buying and reminder impulse buying in the relation between others conscious social face and satisfaction. Based on the empirical results, implications focused on the social face sensitivity, impulse buying tendency and satisfaction were discussed.
