13、uy things through Internet. According to the 29th report about Chinas Internet Development of China Internet Network Information Center (CNNIC), by the end of 2011, the number of Chinese Internet users has smashed through 500 million. As far as recent years tendency is concerned, the number of Chine
14、se Internet users will keep increasing. That is to say, online shopping is getting better markets. According to , an authoritative website, garment products transaction volume is the biggest one among all sorts of online shopping goods. The total size of online shopping market of 2011 is expected to
15、 reach 772 billion. And garment online shopping market size is expected to reach 204.9 billion, which has a growth of 94.7% compared with 105.24 billion yuan in 2010, and in the next 2-3 years, it will maintain the rapid growth. Garment online shopping market is expected to reach 519.5 billion yuan
16、in 2014, then the overall online shopping market penetration will reach 27%, which means shopping online for garment products has a bright future.The definition of market segmentation is “the act of dividing a market into distinct groups of buyers who might need separate products and/or marketing mi
17、xes” (Kotler, 1984, p. 162). Taking sex and education into consideration, we can find out that female college students who are young and fashionable are a key segment of the population. In addition, female college students are one of main forces of garment consumption, so they are quickly becoming t
18、he focus of e-commerce sellers. The author of this paper will take female college students of Jiangsu Normal University as research subjects to explore consumer buying behavior of female college students online garment shopping.1.2 Significance of the studyThe enterprises concept of operations is in
19、creasingly concerned about the change of consumers. Since the 1960s, the concept of operations has changed from production orientation, sale orientation to marketing orientation. Driven by the marketing concept, consumer buying behavior research of the West gradually developed. (Yang, 2003, p. 56).
20、Nowadays, more and more entrepreneurs, in the fierce competitive market , who want to hold an invincible position, have to pay attention to consumer buying behavior and develop new products to meet the needs of specific groups of consumers.“Markets have to be understood before marketing plans can be
21、 developed.” Kotler (1984) writes, “before planning its marketing, a company needs to identify its target consumers and the type of decision process they go through”( p. 134). So study of consumer behavior plays an important role in generating market strategies. In addition, female college students
22、are a major garment consumption group of online shopping. If an e-commerce seller know female college students consumer buying behavior well and can make suitable marketing strategies, he will benefit from them greatly. Therefore, this empirical study on female college students consumer buying behav
23、ior of online garment shopping could be valuable to the garment producers or e-retailers. And this paper will make certain recommendations to help the garment producers and e-retailers build advantages in online shopping market.Our domestic scholars have taken a good number of researches on consumer
24、 buying behavior. However, the studies are mostly explorations in macroscopic angle quantitatively. Few of them do research from the angle combining the niche market of female college students, distribution channel of online shopping and garment products. This paper will take female college students
25、 of Jiangsu Normal University as research subjects, and take specific survey on consumer buying behavior of shopping online for garment products. This paper is expected to enrich the study in this field by using both quantitative and qualitative methods. 1.3 Overall structure of the paperThe present
26、 paper is divided into five chapters. Chapter one is an introduction, including a general statement, and the significance of the study both theoretically and practically. Chapter two is a literature review, which consists of the concepts of consumer buying behavior, buyer decision process and influe
27、ncing factors of buyer decision process. Chapter three describes the research methodology, including the research questions and data collection. Chapter four presents the results and discussions of the paper. The last chapter draws the conclusion of major findings as well as limitations of the paper
28、, and also gives the recommendation for future studies. Chapter two Literature Review2.1 Consumer buying behaviorThe study of consumer buying behavior originated in the 1950s. It plays an important role in enterprises marketing management.There are some major definitions of consumer buying behavior:
29、The general acceptable definition is made by American Marketing Association (AMA): consumer buying behavior is “the dynamic interaction of affect and cognition, behavior, and the environment by which human beings conduct the exchange aspects of their lives”(1995). Michael. R. Solomon (2006) says tha
30、t consumer behavior is a set of processes for individuals or groups to meet the needs and desires of the selection, purchase, use or disposal of products, services, ideas, or experience (p. 5). Consumer buying behavior can be regarded as two parts: one is consumer action, another is buyer decision p
31、rocess. These two parts together constitute the complete process of consumer buying behavior (Engel, 1978; Loudon, 1993). Wu Jianan (2007), a Chinese scholar, sums that consumer behavior is a study of buyer decision process and influencing factors of buyer decision process (p. 106). This paper takes
32、 this definition as working definition.With the development of Chinas economy and society, Chinese consumer buying behavior continue to change. Since 1990s, the problem has drawn scholars attention, especially HongKong and Taiwan scholars. They have carried out some research of characteristics of co
33、nsumer buying behavior, including the research of consumers lifestyle(Oliver, 1994) and the method of Chinese consumer buying behavior(Yang, 1997).So far, the study of consumer buying behavior has become telescope and microscope of enterprises marketing management, which helps enterprises make right
34、 marketing strategies.2.2Buyer decision processPhilip kotler (1984) divided the buyer decision process into five stages: problem recognition, information search, evaluation of alternatives, purchase decision, and postpurchase behavior(See Figure 2-1).Buyer decision processProblemrecognitionInformati
35、onsearchEvaluation of alternativesPurchase decisionPostpurchasebehaviorFigure 2-1Based on buyer decision process, Wu Xiaoyi(2005) did research on situation factors of buyer decision process. Hou Yanping(2009) developed Chinese consumers decision process model.2.3 Influencing factors of buyer decisio
36、n processConsumers do not make their decisions in a vacuum. Their purchases are highly influenced by cultural, social, personal, and psychological characteristics. In detail, cultural factors include culture, subculture, and social class. Social factors include reference groups, family, and social r
37、oles and statuses. Personal factors include age and life-cycle stage, occupation, economic circumstances, life-style, and personality and self-concept. Psychological factors include motivation, perception, learning, and beliefs and attitudes (kotler, 1984, pp. 109-124).The main factors affecting con
38、sumer buying behavior are: quality, price, trust, availability of alternative packaging, frequent advertising, sales promotions, imitations, availability, brand image, prestige, freshness and habits (Dolekoglu et al. 2008), Packaging (Wells, Farley&Armstrong, 2007), price consciousness, price-qualit
39、y association (Batra & Sinha, 2000), advertising-pricing (Karray & Martin-Herran, 2008). However, because of the big difference of consumption environment between China and Western countries, this classification of influencing factors of buyer decision is not suitable completely. Wu Jianan (2007), a
40、 Chinese scholar, sums that buyer decision process is influenced by personal, environmental, and marketing characteristics (pp.106-107). Chapter Three MethodologyThis chapter contains a description of research design in this paper. The first section proposes research questions; the second section presents data collection, containing subjects and questionnaire design. And EXCEL is used as an assistant tool to analyze the data.3.1 Re
