resources (time, money, effort).
– Includes: what they buy, why they buy it, when they
buy it, where they buy it, how often they buy it, and
how often they use it.
• How do individuals dispose of their once-new
purchases.
– Includes: do they store it, throw it or give it away, sell
it, rent it, or lend it out?
Consumer Behavior’s
Interdisciplinary Roots
• Consumer Behavior borrows from psychology,
sociology, social psychology, anthropology.
• All factors combine to form a comprehensive
model that reflects both the cognitive and
emotional aspects of consumer decision making.
A Simplified Model of Consumer Decision
Making

three interlocking stages:
– The input stage:
• marketing efforts
• sociological influences
– The process stage:
• psychological factors
– The output stage:
• purchase behavior
• postpurchase evaluation

Ethics in Marketing
• Unethical practices occur at every level of the
marketing mix:
– in the design of the products, in packaging, in
pricing, in advertising, and in distribution
• There are two different types of theories:
– teleological theories and deontological theories

considers the moral worth of
a behavior as determined by
its consequences.
Utilitarianism

summarized best by the idea
of “the greatest good for the
greatest number.”
Deontology

places greater weight on
personal and social values
than on economic values.

principles of social responsibility in
marketing of their goods and services.

well-being of consumers and
society as a whole.
