household consumption patterns  

Definición

  • At the core of household consumption patterns is the interrelation between scale and composition of the household, income, savings, expenses, and enculturation patterns. There are many psychological factors that influence the household consumption sensibility—from the willingness to achieve and/or reproduce a specific social status, to demonstrating material culture in a competition between neighbors who have to have more and better.
