A drive is a strong internal stimulus that calls for action, and it becomes a motive when it is directed toward a particular stimulus object. Cues are minor stimuli that determine when, where, and how a person responds. If a consumption experience is rewarding, this behavior is likely to be reinforced.

How do psychological factors such as motivation, perception, learning, and beliefs, and attitudes impact consumer behavior?

Two popular theories of motivation are from Freud and Maslow. Freud assumed people are largely unconscious of the true psychological forces shaping behavior. A belief is a descriptive thought that a person holds about something. Based on knowledge, opinion, or faith. Attitudes are a person's relatively consistently favorable or unfavorable evaluations, feelings, and tendencies toward an object or idea. Attitudes put people into a frame of mind of liking or disliking things, of moving toward or away from them. Attitudes are difficult to change.

Understand how personal factors such as occupation, age/life stage, lifestyle, and personality and self-concept influence consumer behavior

A person's occupation affects the goods and services bought. Marketers try to identify the occupational groups that have an above-average interest in their products and services. A company can specialize in making products needed by a given occupational group. Tastes in food, clothes, furniture, and recreation are often age related, and may be shaped by the stage of the family life cycle - the stages through which a family might pass as they mature over time. The Neilson PRIZM Lifestage Group is one of the leading life-stage segmentation systems (includes 66 distinct segments). Lifestyle is a person's pattern of living as expressed in his or her psychographics. It involves measuring consumers' major AIO dimensions - activities, interests, and opinions. The lifestyle concept can help marketers understand changing consumer values and how they affect buyer behavior. Personality refers to the unique psychological characteristics that distinguish a person or group (e.g., dominance, agreeableness, sociability, etc.). A person's self-concept (also called self-image) is also made use of by marketers. The idea is that people's possessions contribute to and reflect their identities. "We are what we consume."

consumer buyer behavior

Buying behavior of final consumers.

Subculture

Group of people with shared value systems based on common life experiences and situations. Can include nationalities, religions, racial groups, and geographic regions.

How do social factors such as groups(membership, reference, and aspirational), social networks, family, and social roles and status impact consumer behavior?

Groups that have a direct influence and to which a person belongs are called membership groups. Reference groups serve as direct or indirect points of comparison or reference in forming a person's attitudes or behavior. An aspirational group is one to which the individual wishes to belong. Word-of-mouth influence refers to the impact of the personal words and recommendations of trusted friends, associates, and other consumers on buying behavior. An opinion leader is a person within a reference group who, because of special skills, knowledge, personality, or other characteristics, exerts social influence on others (also referred to as influentials or leading adopters). Buzz marketing involves enlisting or even creating opinion leaders to serve as brand ambassadors who spread the word about a company's products. Online social networks are online communities where people socialize or exchange information and opinions. Family members can strongly influence buyer behavior. Marketers are interested in the roles and influence of the husband, wife, and children on the purchase of different products and services. A person's position in each group can be defined in terms of both role and status, and these typically influence the products people choose.
