To explore why people buy things, and examine how products, services, and consumption activities contribute to shape people's lives. To understand theories, concepts, and models that help to explain consumer behaviour and why these are relevant to marketing practice.

The module will cover consumer decision-making including the use of decision rules. The module will focus on understanding the consumer as an individual, including topics such as learning, attitudes, identity, emotions, and personality. But the module will also concern group behaviour and the role of culture in shaping consumption. Finally, it is important to consider the impact of marketing activities on consumers' well-being.
