This can significantly impact their decision-making processes. However, there is currently insufficient comprehensive understanding regarding how information overload influences consumer purchasing decisions in the agri-food sector and whether differences in personal cognition and knowledge moderate this effect. This study aims to address this knowledge deficiency. Drawing on the stimulus-organism-response (S-O-R) theory, an influence mechanism model is developed to examine the impact of information overload on consumers' decision deferral. A situational experiment involving 430 agri-food consumers is conducted to empirically test the proposed model. The results show that information overload significantly affects the level of consumer confusion. This, in turn, causes a deferral of purchase decisions. Furthermore, both cognitive need and consumer knowledge negatively moderate the relationship between information overload and consumer confusion.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":47976,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Consumer Affairs","volume":"59 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145469514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A qualitative methodology was employed, involving financial professionals and members of the general population. The theory of planned behavior was inductively used as an analytical framework. The results suggest that detrimental financial behaviors are shaped by (1) attitudes such as financial apprehension, rigid financial mindsets, and lack of awareness; (2) social influences including relational pressure, sociocultural norms, geographic context, social media, and marketing; (3) perceived behavioral control factors such as limited knowledge, environmental conditions, financial ecosystem, and insufficient education; and (4) ingrained financial habits, including avoidance, cognitive biases, overconsumption, and lifestyle orientation. The originality of this research lies in the new insights it offers into the cognitive and psychological processes shaping financial behaviors.

We investigated three types of financial behaviors: (1) short-term management (e.g., saving and spending), (2) long-term management (e.g., investing), and (3) financial enabling (e.g., over-giving or oversharing). Additionally, we explored the mediating role of money scripts—emotionally charged beliefs about money—and their organization into distinct profiles. Based on cross-sectional data from 1000 Hong Kong youths in low-SES households, we found that higher-level parental financial sacrifice was associated with healthier short- and long-term money management but lower-level financial enabling. These associations were mediated by money script profiles—the diverse combinations of money-related beliefs. These results underscore the distinctive financial socialization experiences of youths in low-SES households while highlighting the value of understanding money script profiles to mitigate their challenges.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":47976,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Consumer Affairs","volume":"59 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144905583","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Perceived financial well-being (FWB) has been linked with proactive behaviors and financial decision-making that can help people build a bridge to higher levels of mobility, financial satisfaction, and life satisfaction. However, finding factors that positively affect FWB has proven elusive for people from HMCs. Our contributions to addressing this gap are: (1) examining the role of perceived economic mobility (PEM), a new factor in the FWB literature; (2) incorporating the psychosocial variable trait hope, the first time a positive psychological resource variable is introduced into this domain; (3) understanding the importance of financial capability (FC); and (4) obtaining a large sample of primary data from households in poor neighborhoods headed by racial or ethnic minorities. Based on structural equation modeling, PEM has a positive influence on FWB, which is mediated by FC. Moreover, trait hope moderates the relationship between PEM and FC. Importantly, PEM and trait hope can be shaped by public-policy interventions, suggesting avenues for enhancing perceived FWB among people in HMCs.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":47976,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Consumer Affairs","volume":"59 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144869849","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
