Abstract: | A model incorporating economic optimism (hereafter as: econ-opt.), personal pessimism (here as: p-pess.), and the related aspects of depression, and shopping (here as: sh-g.) indicators of conspicuous consumption, deal proneness, healthy sh-g. consciousness, and product trustworthiness is developed. Then, the model is empirically tested using structural equations on a sample of 667 consumers. It is concluded that both econ-opt. and p-pess. have significant and unique influences on consumer shopping behaviour (here as: c-s-beh.), implying orthogonal but vital contributions from economics and psychology to the understanding of the future of c-s-beh. |
