The COVID-19 pandemic brought the attention of researchers to impulsive buying behaviors and the purchasing of local products, as they are fundamental for the economic recovery of the countries. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to identify how the consumer’s impulsive buying tendencies influence their choices for foreign products. We applied the Impulsive Buying Tendency Scale and the X-Scale of Xenocentrism to 300 young and adults. To analyze the data, we conducted a PLS-SEM analysis to test five hypotheses. Our results from the path analysis indicate that the affective aspects of impulsive buying tendency decrease the cognitive IBT (β= -0.345), and increases the foreign admiration (β= 0,265) and domestic rejection (β= 0,226). Moreover, the cognitive aspect of IBT can also increase domestic rejection (β= 0,196). Our results follow the theory regarding xenocentrism, as consumers cognitively will consider foreign products as superior, thus rejecting the domestic ones. Furthermore, affective has also a significant impact on domestic rejection, which indicates that consumers may disregard local products because of individual frustrations.  Overall, businesses need to take into account that to conquer those impulsive buyers, they need to show that they are more global and reinforce the product features. Research on the seek for foreign products and impulsive behavior will be fundamental as this purchasing can help the countries in the economic recovery after the COVID-19 crisis.

Impulsive buying behavior has been the subject of a large amount of empirical research, but little research exists that actually examines the significant predictors of impulsive buying behaviors in adolescents. The purpose of this study was to investigate the attitudes of adolescents towards credit and money and the personal financial planning practices they follow, and to examine how these attitudes and practices influenced their impulsive buying behavior. Data were collected from 906 adolescent Taiwanese college and university students. A logistic regression model was used to identify which students were more likely and which were less likely to make impulsive purchases. The significant predictors were the following 8 variables: gender, age, having taken a course in personal finance, use of money as a reward, family of origin, affective credit attitude, cognitive credit attitude, behavioral credit attitude, and money attitude.

Online impulsive buying behavior has drawn an increasing amount of attention from researchers and marketers as well; however, little research has explored how cognitive aspect and emotional aspect effect online impulsive buying together. The study examines the role of product involvement (cognitive aspect) and anticipated regret (emotional aspect) on the online impulsive buying behavior of the consumer. The results indicate that consumers who experienced downward anticipated regret showed more online impulsive buying behavior than those who experienced upward anticipated regret. Moreover, anticipated regret moderates the relationship between product involvement and online impulsive buying behavior, for participants who experienced downward anticipated regret showing more online impulsive buying behavior than those who experienced upward anticipated regret in the low product involvement group, but there is no differential between downward and upward anticipated regret in the high involvement product group. These findings suggest that anticipated regret helps consumers make more deliberative online shopping choices. The implications for both future research and online consumers are discussed.

Prior research has presented the moderating role of normative evaluations in the relationship between the impulsive buying trait and consumers’ buying behaviors. In this article the authors show that consumer tendency to buy something spontaneous, unreflectively and immediately can be perceived as a factor which describes buying impulsiveness. This article also shows conceptual and empirical evidence that there is some support for the moderating role of normative evaluations in the relationship between buying impulsiveness and impulse buying behaviors. Significance occurs when consumers believe that act on impulse is suitable. The result suggests that consumers’ normative evaluation can moderate the link between the trait and behavioral aspects of impulse buying.
