Purpose: The study was done to influence of family function and degree of depression on impulsive behavior in adolescents. Method: Using convenience sampling 780 adolescents were recruited from October 29 and November 9, 2011. Data were collected using self-report questionnaires which included items on general characteristics, family function, depression, and impulsive behavior. Data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe test, Pearson Correlation Coefficient, and hierarchical regression analysis. Results: The major findings of this study were as follow; 1) There was a significant negative relationship between family function and impulsive behavior (r=-.236, p<.001) and a positive relationship between depression and impulsive behavior (r=.342, p<.001). 2) Factors with a significant negative association with impulsive behavior were higher school records (${\beta}$=-.112, p<.001) and family function: positive resolution of family problems (${\beta}$=-.213, p=.008), while a significant positive association was found for unsatisfactory school life (${\beta}$=.103, p=.016), family function: emotional reactivity (${\beta}$=.159, p=.028), and depression (${\beta}$=.301, p<.001). These variables explained 20.1% of variance for impulsive behavior. Conclusion: The results of this study identify a relationship between family function, depression, and impulsive behavior in adolescents indicating variables to be addressed to reduce impulsive behavior. These variables can be used in developing intervention programs.

Impulsive buying behavior is an important aspect of consumer behavior and is of significant interest to researchers and retail management alike. It is a familiar from of in-apparel store behavior because of its social-psychological characteristics. The objectives of this study were to find out the variable(5) influencing impulsive and non-impulsive buying behavior, as well as to investigate the causal relationships between variables related to impulsive buying behaviors in boutiques. A questionnaire was completed by 345 boutiques customers in Busan, Korea. Demographics showed that consumers were more educated and had higher incomes than average consumers in Korea. Data was analysed by discriminant analysis and path analysis. Results showed that "Clothing involvement" was the most influencing variable determined impulsive buying behavior. "Self-monitoring" proved negatively influencing on impulsive buying behavior in boutiques. Consumers with low interest in apparel reacted positively to the in-store purchasing situation, and did negatively to their affective factors. As a result, they provided the useful information for consumer behavior researchers and boutiques retailers.

Prenatal nicotine exposure over an entire pregnancy has been associated with an increased prevalence of hyperactivity, anxiety-like behavior and depression-like behavior in mature rats. However, the effects of maternal nicotine exposure in late gestation and lactation on the psychology and behavior of adolescent rat offspring are unclear. Thus, we investigated the effect of nicotine exposure during late gestation and lactation on anxiety-like and impulsive decision-making behavior in adolescent offspring of rat. Female rats were orally exposed to nicotine which is within range of plasma level of human chronic smokers during the period of third last period of gestation and lactation. When the offspring were weaned, we observed alterations in the anxiety-like behavior and decision-making ability of adolescent rat offspring using light/dark box test and T-maze delay-based cost-benefit decision-making task. The maternal consumption of nicotine reduced both the time spent in the light compartment and the number of transitions compared to nicotine-free rats. Moreover, such nicotine exposed adolescent offspring rats showed impulsive decision making which chose the instant reward in a decision-making situation. We found that nicotine exposure during late gestation and lactation induces an increase in anxiety-like and impulsive decision-making behavior at this developmental stage. These findings suggest that maternal nicotine-exposed offspring are at an increased risk of developing anxious and impulsive behavior.

This study examined how financial education, impulsive buying, and socio-demographic factors affect saving behavior of 500 Korean college students. The descriptive results show that students who received financial education reported more positive saving behavior compared to students who did not receive financial education in school. The OLS results indicate that all else being equal, students with financial education reported more positive saving behavior than those without financial education. As predictors of saving behavior among Korean college students, the OLS results also reveal that impulsive buying, gender, and age were statistically significant. This study concludes that receiving financial education early, such as in elementary school, plays an important role in determining the saving behavior of Korean college students.

Purpose While the popularity of C2C auction platforms such as eBay is gradually decreased, this domain is still undermined to explain online bidding behaviors. Online bidders sometimes engage in impulsive bidding due to some of the online auction characteristics. Therefore, this study develops and tests a model of the impulsive bidding exhibited by online bidders in C2C auction platforms. Based on S-O-R framework, our model posits that both perceived time-pressure and competition intensity affect cognitive absorption which ultimately influences the impulsive bidding. Design/methodology/approach This study collected survey data from 214 C2C auction participants, who have prior experience on impulsive bidding and tested both measurement model and structural model by using CB-SEM (covariate-based structural equation modelling) technique. In this study, by using AMOS 20.0, we tested the measurement model for its overall fit, item reliability, and validity and further conducted the structural model to test our proposed hypotheses. Findings Based on our results, we found that perceived tim-pressure and competition intensity were positively related to cognitive absorption. We also found that the cognitive absorption was positively associated with impulsive bidding behavior. In this study, by developing our research model in S-O-R framework, we provide an alternative theoretical mechanism to describe online impulsive bidding behavior.

This study examined the practice of the impulsive purchase and the factors influencing it among college consumers. The data were collected from 481 college students in Busan and Gyeongnam areas through a self-administered questionnaire. Frequencies, Cronbach's alpha, factor analysis, Pearson's correlation analysis, and regression analysis were conducted by SPSS Windows. The results from this study were as follows: First, the level of the impulsive purchase of college consumers was not that high. Second, as a result of regression analysis for the group of the high level of impulsive purchase, the allowance amount, price-discount factor, credit card use, psychological factor, and attitudes towards money (ostentatious way, and symbol of success), affected the impulsive purchase. These results suggest that consumer education regarding values about money and strategies to resist impulsive purchase should be conducted at home and in school.

본 연구는 CATV홈쇼핑에 관련된 충동구매행동에 관한 연구로서 특히 의류제품의 CATV홈쇼핑에 관련된 소비자 특성, 마케팅 요인이 충동구매행동에 미치는 영향에 대하여 알아보고자 하였다. 이러한 연구 목적을 위하여 부산시내 거주의 CATV홈쇼핑 방송을 시청하거나 CATV홈쇼핑을 통해서 구매경험이 있는 20~50대 성인 여성을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였으며, 263부의 설문지를 최종분석에 사용하였다. SPSS을 이용하여 요인 분석, t-test. $\chi$2-test, 판별분석을 실시하였고, 연구를 통해 밝혀진 결과 및 결론은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 소비자들은 CATV홈쇼핑을 탐색할 때 '애고적 탐색행위' , '상품중심적 탐색행위'로 구성되어, 소비자들은 자주 이용하는 홈쇼핑채널을 이용하여 홈쇼핑 프로그램을 즐기고 있었으며, 새로운 상품이나 상표를 보기 위해 CATV홈쇼핑을 탐색하였다. CATV 홈쇼핑에 관련된 마케팅 요인은 '촉진요인' , '제품요인' , '대금결제방식요인'으로 구성되어, CATV홈쇼핑에서 제시하는 사은품, 긴박한 상황조성, 구매재촉 등에 충동구매행동이 많은 자극을 받았으며 제품의 디자인이나 색상, 상표의 유명도 등 제품특성과 신용카드 사용여부 등 대금결제방식요인이 충동구매행동을 자극하였다. 둘째, CATV 홈쇼핑에서 충동구매집단과 비충동구매집단간에는 소비자특성에 차이가 있었으며, 마케팅요인으로부터 받는 영향력도 달랐다. CATV 홈쇼핑의 충동구매여부는 소비자의 충동성향, 마케팅자극의 촉진요인에 의해 판별되며 애고적 탐색행위, 자기통제력, 대금결제방식요인, 제품요인에 의해 판별되는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 소비자들은 CATV홈쇼핑을 시청할 때 프로그램을 즐기며 새로운 상품을 찾았으며, 마케터가 제시하는 다양한 자극들로부터 영향을 받았다. 충동구매를 하는 사람들은 소비자특성, 마케팅자극으로부터 받는 영향에 차이가 있었으며, 소비자의 충동성향과 마케팅 촉진요인은 CATV홈쇼핑에서 패션제품의 충동구매여부를 판별해주는 중요한 변수로 나타났다.
