Impulsive Buying dan Hoarding pada Mahasiswa

Abstract

The phenomenon of impulsive buying and hoarding among university students are two aspects of consumer behavior that significantly affect individuals' financial and psychological well-being. This study aims to explore the correlation between these two behaviors among college students. The research sample consisted of 97 college students who underwent a survey using two instruments, namely the Impulsive Buying Scale (IBS) and the Saving Inventory-Revised (SI-R) to measure the level of hoarding tendencies. The results of this study surprisingly showed no significant relationship between impulsive buying behavior and hoarding tendencies experienced by college students. These findings provide a deeper understanding of the diversity of consumer behavior among college students and emphasize the need for an individualized approach to addressing consumer behavior issues.
