Abstract

This study explores the psychological factors influencing consumer spending, focusing on emotional drivers, cognitive biases, and the impact of marketing and lifestyle choices. Key findings reveal that emotions such as happiness and stress can lead to impulse buying, while marketing strategies, including emotional appeals and social proof, significantly shape consumer behaviour. Lifestyle choices and personal values also play a critical role in financial decision-making, affecting spending, saving, and investing priorities. The research underscores the need for businesses to leverage psychological insights in marketing and for policymakers to enhance financial literacy, promoting responsible consumer behaviour and informed financial decisions.
