CONSUMER BUYING BEHAVIOUR A FACTOR OF COMPULSIVEBUYING PREJUDICED BY WINDOWSILL PLACEMENT
ABSTRACT
This empirical research investigates the impact of windowsill placement
on the compulsive buying behavior of consumers on three different types of
products i.e., convenience products, shopping products, and specialty products.
We hypothesized the positive effect of windowsill placement on all three types of
product categories. The categorical regression (Optimal scaling) was used to test
the hypotheses. The data was collected via self administered questionnaire from
Pakistan through systematic random sampling, and the sample consisted of 500
respondents. The results of data analysis supported only the 1 st hypothesis which
highlighted that placement of products in shopping centers has an impact of
unplanned buying of consumers for convenience products.
KEY WORDS: WINDOWSILL PLACEMENT, COMPULSIVE BUYING, CONVENIENCE PRODUCTS,
SHOPPING PRODUCTS, SPECIALTY PRODUCTS.
INTRODUCTION
This study is an insight into the compulsive buying pattern of individuals on the basis of
maneuvers used by marketers. The relationship between windowsill placement and the demand
of customers have been studied with respect to different consumer product categories.
Windowsill placement has been used as independent variable and types of consumer products
have been used as dependent variables namely convenience products, shopping products, and
specialty products. Unsought products have not been used for research purpose because of its
very nature. Operational definitions of the variables have been given below:

Consumer buying behavior a factor of compulsive buying 2
Consumer products are products and services bought by final consumers for personal
consumption. Marketers usually classify these products and services further based on how
consumers go about buying them. Consumer products include convenience products , shopping
products , specialty products , and unsought products . These products differ in the ways
consumers buy them and, therefore, in how they are marketed (Kotler, Armstrong, 2011).
Convenience products are consumer products and services that customers usually buy
frequently, immediately, and with minimal comparison and buying effort. Examples include
laundry detergent, candy, magazines, and fast food. Convenience products are usually low priced, and marketers place them in many locations to make them readily available when
customers need or want them (Kotler, Armstrong, 2011).
Shopping products are less frequently purchased consumer products and services that
customers compare carefully on suitability, quality, price, and style. When buying shopping
products and services, consumers spend much time and effort in gathering information and
making comparisons. Examples include furniture, clothing, used cars, major appliances, and
hotel and airline services. Shopping products marketers usually distribute their products through
fewer outlets but provide deeper sales support to help customers in their comparison efforts
(Kotler, Armstrong, 2011).
Specialty products are consumer products and services with unique characteristics or brand
identification for which a significant group of buyers is willing to make a special purchase effort.
Examples include specific brands of cars, high-priced photographic equipment, designer clothes,

and the services of medical or legal specialists. A Lamborghini automobile, for example, is a
specialty product because buyers are usually willing to travel great distances to buy one. Buyers
normally do not compare specialty products. They invest only the Time needed to reach dealers
carrying the wanted products (Kotler, Armstrong, 2011).
Unsought products are consumer products that the consumer either does not know about or
knows about but does not normally consider buying. Most major new innovations are unsought
until the consumer becomes aware of them through advertising. Classic examples of known but
unsought products and services are life insurance, preplanned funeral services, and blooddonations to the Red Cross. By their very nature, unsought products require a lot of advertising,
personal selling, and other marketing efforts (Kotler, Armstrong, 2011).
Windowsill placement refers to the placement of the product in the shopping center also known
as shelf placement. In this study word windowsill placement denotes favorable position in the
shopping center like placing it just behind the cashier or at the entrance of the store.
Three hypothesized statements have been made to check the relationship between dependent and
independent variable (s). Firstly the relationship of shelf placement on sales of convenience
products, secondly the relationship of shelf placement on sales of shopping products, thirdly the
relationship of shelf placement on sales of specialty products.
The impact of placement has been studied with the help of the statistical test by using Statistical
Package for Social Science (SPSS). The test used is categorical regression (Optimal scaling) to

interpret the findings that whether placement of products in shopping centers has an impact of
unplanned buying of consumers or not. If yes then it is on which types of products.
LITERATURE REVIEW
Consumer research on compulsive buying began with work by Faber, O'Guinn, and
Krych (1987), Faber and O'Guinn (1988, 1989), O'Guinn and Faber (1989), and Valence,
d'Astous, and Fortier (1988). Faber and O'Guinn (1988) defined compulsive consumers as
"people who are impulsively driven to consume, cannot control this behavior, and seem to buy in
order to escape from other problems". Edwards (1992) defined compulsive buying behavior as "a
chronic, abnormal form of shopping and spending characterized, in the extreme, by an
overpowering, uncontrollable, and repetitive urge to buy, with disregard for the consequences"
Research on compulsive consumption reveals a number of consistent findings. As discussed by
Faber, Christenson, de Zwaan, and Mitchell (1995), compulsive consumption behaviors are
associated with low levels of self-esteem, high levels of depression, and high levels of anxiety. In
their summary of the literature, DeSarbo and Edwards (1996) linked compulsive consumption to
a number of psychological traits, including "dependence, denial, depression, lack of impulsive
control, low self-esteem, approval seeking, anxiety, escape coping tendencies, general
compulsiveness, materialism (envy), isolation, excitement seeking, and perfectionism" . In their
research, DeSarbo and Edwards identified two clusters of compulsive consumers. They
identified an internal compulsive buying group that they argued is driven by deep psychological
problems, their personality structure, and family upbringing. The second group ofcompulsive
consumers appeared to be driven by personal circumstances rather than such deep-seated
psychological factors. The trait of impulsiveness was significant for both groups of respondents.

d'Astous (1990) investigated compulsive consumption among a population of "normal"
consumers. She obtained evidence that the same theoretical relations found in previous studies,
in which known groups of compulsive consumers were compared to the general population, are
found in the general population
In a recent critique of contemporary personality research in consumer behavior, Endler and
Rosenstein (1997) advocated an interactionist approach as a means ofincreasing the predictive
ability of personality traits. In another influential article, Buss (1989) made a similar argument.He suggested that researchers investigate manipulations and traits jointly, which he proposed is
similar to looking at the interaction between person and situation. In his article, Buss also
distinguished between two types of traits. Borrowing ideas from Allport (1961), he distinguished
surface traits from psychological traits. He suggested that surface traits are summaries of surface
behaviors. In contrast, psychological traits exist at a deeper level and act asthe foundation for the
more specific surface traits. Allport (1961) also used the term secondary traits to describe the
surface orstylistic trait idea.
In contrast to surface traits, cardinal and central traits are proposed to exist at a deeper level
(Allport, 1961). Few in number, cardinal traits identify basic dimensions on which individuals
diverge. We define cardinal traits as the basic, underlying predispositions of individuals that
arise from genetics and their early learning history. Allport (1961) proposed that the number is
likely to be between 5 and 10. If a limited set of cardinal traits can be identified, it will provide
parsimony in developing our models of individual differences in consumer behavior. As noted by

Morgan and Hunt (1994), parsimony is an important scientific principle. Although disagreement
is found in the psychological literature as to how manycardinal traitsmay exist, we tentatively
propose that consumer researchers should first turn to the Five-Factor Model of personality to
identify them (Costa & McCrae, 1985; Goldberg, 1993; Wiggins, 1996). In this article, we
employ the traits of extraversion, agreeability, stability, openness to experience, and
conscientiousness found in the Big Five model developed by Goldberg (1992) and refined by
Saucier (1994). Central traits represent the third category of individual difference variables found
in the hierarchical model. Based on Buss (1989) and Allport (1961), we conceptualize central
traits as narrower in application and emerging from the interplay of cardinal traits, the culture inwhich an individual lives, and the learning history of the individual. These individual difference
dimensions are more narrowly focused than the cardinal traits, and dozens may exist.
Although music is generally thought of as an entertainment medium, it can also be used to
achieve other objectives. In particular, music is employed in the background of production
facilities, offices and retail stores to produce certain desired attitudes and behaviors among
employees and/or customers. For example, background music is thought to improve store image,
make employees happier, reduce employee turnover and stimulate customer purchasing. Despite
the wide spread use of music in the marketplace, research documenting the effects of music is
limited, and the results of existing research are in conclusive regarding its effects on consumer
behavior. This is unfortunate because music is an atmospheric variable readily controlled by
management. Past decisions to use background music in the marketplace have generally been
based more on intuition or folklore rather than on strong empirical results. The purpose of this
paper is twofold: First, it critically reviews the existing literature on the subject, and second, it

presents the results of a study examining the effects of background music on in-store shopping
behavior (Milliman, 1982).
Much of the controversy suggested in this paper and by other authors pertaining to the question
of "can background music affect behavior?" still remains (Brayfield and Crockett 1955; Jacob
1968; McGehee and Gardner1949; Smith 1947; Uhrbrock, 1961). However, one consumer
behavior study, conducted in two large supermarkets, does not suffer from the limitations of the
research previously cited. The study examined the loudness of music (as the independent
variable) and its effects upon shopping behavior. In this case, music was varied from loud too
soft in eight counter-balanced experimental sessions.It was found that significantly less time was spent in the stores when the music was loud
compared to when it was soft, although there was no significant difference in sales or in the
customer's reported level of satisfaction (Smith and Curnow 1966).

3.1 Method of Data Collection:
Data has been collected from the public of the most crowded city of the Pakistan (i.e.
Karachi). Instrument used was questionnaire and the sampling technique used was systematic
random sampling.
3.2 Sampling Technique:
Probability based sampling technique (i.e. systematic random sampling technique) has
been used for selecting the sample out of the entire population. Sampling friction have been
calculated with the help of this formula
Sampling friction = sample size / population
On average almost one thousand individuals visit each superstore in evening and the target was
to select one hundred respondents from each store,
Sampling friction = 500 (100 respondents from each store * 5 stores in total) / 5000 (1000
individuals in each store * 5 stores)
=> 500 / 5000 => 1 / 10 (every tenth respondent is to be selected)
Hence every tenth respondent have been targeted for the purpose of data collection.
3.3 Sample Size:
A sample size of five hundred respondents has been used for the research purpose.
Hundred respondents were selected from every supermarket altogether five supermarkets were
targeted.

3.4 Instrument of Data Collection:
Self-administered closed ended questionnaires have been used for the purpose of data
collection. All questionnaires were standardized and each questionnaire was having sixteen
questions in total which were succeeding likert scale having 5 choices and they were coded in
this phenomenon. 1 for strongly disagree, 2 for Disagree, 3 for Neutral, 4 for Agree, 5 for
strongly agree.

DISCUSSIONS, CONCLUSION, IMPLICATIONS AND FUTURERESEARCH
5.1 Conclusion :
There is a positive relationship between convenience products and the independent
variable which is windowsill placement. Whereas there is no relationship of windowsill
placement of shopping, as well as specialty products in supermarkets. It was proved that people
prefer buying specialty products such as, electronics from their original stores.
5.2 Discussions:
The points we came across through our research were how the manufacturers advertise
their product (whether it be by windowsill placement or by salesperson or TV commercials).
Customers should know what they want to and do not want to buy. Customers should be aware
of the strategic techniques of the manufacturers.
5.3 Implications and Recommendations:
In order to attract more consumers to buy their products, manufacturers must put in a lot
of effort to make their product eye catching by windowsill placement , stores should be clean
proper advertisement of products should be done so the consumer becomes aware of the product.
5.4 Future Research:
The further can be carried on in other countries. As this has been done by taking in to
account a city of Pakistan. Furthermore it can be done on unsought products. In which ways we
can enhance the sales of unsought products because of its very nature.
