Consumer Decision Making Scales
233 validated scales · all free to use
Scales measuring the individual differences and processes that shape consumer choice. This domain includes widely used trait measures such as the Need for Cognition Scale, Consumer Ethnocentrism Scale, Materialism Values Scale, Personal Involvement Inventory and General Self-Control Scale, alongside measures of variety seeking, novelty seeking, compulsive buying, information search, goal pursuit, social influence and consumer values. It also holds core outcome measures such as the Purchase Intention Scale and a number of response-style instruments, including the Balanced Inventory of Desirable Responding, that are commonly used as controls in survey research. These scales are a natural starting point when you need a moderator or individual-difference variable for a consumer study, or a validated measure of intention, involvement or self-regulation.
