Analysis of the consumptive behavior of Muslim consumers: A study on social, psychological, and financial literacy

Abstract

This research aimed to examine how social, psychological, and financial literacy factors influence the online shopping behavior of college students. The study included 350 undergraduates from Jakarta who were selected using a convenience sampling method. The data was analyzed using regression analysis, which revealed that social and psychological factors significantly negatively impact students' online shopping behavior. On the other hand, financial literacy has a significantly positive impact. This study gives students and the community important insights into managing finances effectively and avoiding impulsive purchases of unnecessary items.
