Synthesis and Plan



My research so far has been focusing on the psychology of buying. I was originally perplexed as to why some people were attracted to certain things and not others? What makes a product attractive? What brain senses are involved when shop? All of these topics I am diligently researching. After consulting my peers I have found some interesting new topics of interest in my area of study.

Some of the topics suggested by my peers include:

  • Focusing on individual cases of over shopping.
  • Research why people go out of their way to over shop.
  •  Is there a disorder for over shopping?
  • How can a person with low income still want to exceed their budget?
  • What possess people to spend on things they cannot afford?
I will use these newly purposed topics of research to broaden my search on the psychology of buying. At the same time I will also try to use these topics to eventually narrow down my search into more of a condensed subject. Perhaps it will be why people over buy.
