II.1.1. Factors Influencing Consumer Behavior Shinta (2009) states that consumer purchasing behavior is influenced by cultural, social, personal and psychological factors. Some of the factors that influence consumer behavior are as follows1. Cultural factors. Culture, subculture and social class are very important for purchasing behavior. Culture is what determines the most basic desires and behaviors. Each culture is made up of a series of subcultures that are most revealing of identification and socialization specific to its members. Fundamentally, all human societies have social stratification. Stratification is most often found in the form of social class division of society, which is relatively homogeneous and permanent, is hierarchically organized and members have similar values, interests and behaviors. Social class has several characteristics. First, people from the same social class tend to behave more uniformly than those from two different social classes. Second, people find themselves occupying lower or higher social class positions. Third, social class is characterized by a set of variables – such as occupation, income, welfare, education and value orientation rather than by a single variable. Fourth, individuals can move from one social class scale to another over the course of their lives.2 . Social factors.
