Abstract

States that although the concept of “stress” has received increased attention in the behavioral and social sciences throughout the past five decades, it has been virtually ignored by consumer researchers. Presents conceptual and theoretical underpinnings of stress research, which suggest that many changes in individuals’ consumption behaviors are efforts to cope with stressful life circumstances. A study was conducted to test specific hypotheses about the effects of stress on consumption‐coping strategies of older adults. Results suggest that when older consumers experience stressful life circumstances, they may initiate, intensify, or change consumption activities to handle stress. Specific coping strategies were found to differ by gender. Implications for future consumer research are discussed.
社会化影响为以后的生活做准备
尽管在过去的五十年中,“压力”的概念在行为科学和社会科学中受到了越来越多的关注,但它实际上却被消费者研究人员所忽视。介绍了压力研究的概念和理论基础,这表明个人消费行为的许多变化是为了应对压力生活环境的努力。我们进行了一项研究,以检验有关压力对老年人消费应对策略影响的具体假设。结果表明,当老年消费者经历有压力的生活环境时,他们可能会发起、加强或改变消费活动来应对压力。具体的应对策略因性别而异。讨论了对未来消费者研究的启示。
