English Abstract
Abstract: The discipline of consumer behavior comprises the study of individuals, groups, or organizations and the methods that they use to choose products and services to satisfy their needs and wants. The field of consumer behaviour (CB) started in the 1940s through 1950s and it originated as a sprout of the marketing discipline (Shin, 2013). Over the years the field has evolved and undergone a transformation and has since developed into a trans-disciplinary social science field. The field now straddles across many areas; it now integrates traits of sociology, ethnography, social anthropology, psychology, anthropology, marketing, and behavioural economics.
