Abstract:The assumptions of 'homo economicus' are seriously offended by impulsive buying (hereafter as: i-b). Several perspectives on i-b. are presented, which have been suggested in clinical, consumer, economic, and social psychology. These include e.g. heuristic information processing, time-inconsistent preferences, personality traits and values,..., and compulsive buying. These perspectives may from time to time lead to contradictory or paradoxical findings. I-b. is argued to be able to be seen in terms of psychological functioning, especially as a form of self-regulation. It is discussed whether there i. should be protection and ii. are consumers able to get protected against impulsivity.
