    Abstract : Decision making for fast-moving consumer goods involves a choice between numerous similar alternatives. Under such demanding circumstances, a decision is made for one product.

    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; decision-making; visual attention; process tracing; consumer behaviour;

  4. 4. Is consumer decision-making out of control? : non-conscious influences on consumer decision-making for fast moving consumer goods

    Author : Jens Nordfält; Handelshögskolan i Stockholm; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

This is a bit funny since one of the most obvious aspects of decision-making for fast moving consumer goods (FMCGs) is that most products are never considered. READ MORE

  5. 5. The household decision making process in replacement of durable goods

    Author : Agneta Marell Molander; Per Davidsson; Tommy Gärling; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Household decision making process; replacements; durable goods;

    Abstract : As durables are essential in many households, the level of ownership is high and, due to the high degree of penetration, a vast proportion of the current sales are replacement purchases. Even though a lot of research attention has been paid to decision making and decision processes many models are oriented towards non-durable goods and although a majority of purchases of many durable goods are replacements, few studies seem to make a distinction between a replacement purchase decision and a decision to buy an item for the first time.
