Electronic Money, Materialism, And Social Media: The Triple Threat Reshaping Student Spending Habits
This study addresses the changing consumption patterns of university students driven by electronic money usage, materialistic values, and social media exposure, with the objective of examining how these factors influence student consumption behavior among students of the Faculty of Economics and Business at Tanjungpura University. Using a descriptive causal quantitative approach, data were collected through an online survey of 100 respondents and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) by AMOS. The research findings reveal that electronic money usage has no significant effect on consumption behavior. In contrast, materialism, social media intensity, and attitudes toward social media content had a significant beneficial effect on student consumption behavior. These results emphasize the importance of money management skill and financial inclusion strategies in shaping healthy consumption patterns and supporting sustainable development.

This study aims to determine the use of shopeepaylater, lifestyle, and financial literacy on the consumptive behavior of students in the Management Study Program, Faculty of Economics and Business, Al-Qur'an University of Science, Class of 2021. The lifestyle of today's students mostly imitates the style of someone seen through social media and always follows the existing trends. Lack of financial literacy can also be one of the causes of students to behave consumptively.

Interest and additional fees from late payments will increase their financial burden. This study uses a quantitative approach with multiple linear analysis methods. The population in this study were FEB students of Al-Qur'an University of Science, Class of 2021. The research sample used purposive sampling technique with a total of 60 people. The data collection technique used in this study was a questionnaire. The instrument used in this research is a questionnaire.

This study contributes to the emerging literature on the negative effects over consumption that social media users may develop as a consequence of being engaged on social media platforms. The authors tested materialism’s direct and indirect impacts on compulsive, conspicuous, and impulsive buying, adding two novel mediators: attitudes toward social media content (SCM) and social media intensity (SMI). The study uses a convenience sample of 400 Thai social media users analyzed using structural equation modeling. The results confirmed the well-established positive relationships between materialism and each of the three-negative consumption behaviors also in the social media domain. A novel finding showed the important role played by SMI which was found to be a strong predictor of each of the three negative consumption behaviors and it was also found to significantly mediate the relationship between materialism and the three-negative consumption behaviors. An additional contribution of the study was found on the role of attitudes which, contrary to what is commonly believed, were often not significant in predicting any negative behavior.

Tobacco consumption among adolescent students in Nepal has grown to an alarming proportion, raising serious concerns about associated factors. The study aimed to describe the tobacco consumption behavior of in-school adolescent students and its associated factors. A cross-sectional survey design was followed to conduct the study. Students of community schools in Class 10 of a municipality in Saptari, Nepal, were the population of the study. All students who were present on the day of data collection participated in the study. Two hundred and twenty-five students participated in the study with a response rate of 95.74%. A validated, self-administered anonymous questionnaire was used to collect data. Frequency, percentage, and binary logistic regression were used to analyze the data. The proportion of students who consumed tobacco was 24% (boy: 18.7%, girl: 5.3%). Sex of students (OR = 5.529, 95% CI 2.375–12.872, P = .000) and tobacco consumption behavior of students’ fathers (OR = 3.358, 95% CI 1.308–8.617, P = .012) were significantly associated with tobacco consumption behavior of adolescent students. I concluded that the sex of students and the tobacco consumption behavior of students’ fathers are the main associated factors of the tobacco consumption behavior of adolescent students. Anti-tobacco policies should be developed and implemented with the coordination of school administration, the school management committee, and the local bodies targeting students, especially boys and students’ fathers.

BackgroundA prior randomized controlled trial of social media exposure at Circulation determined that social media did not increase 30‐day page views. Whether insufficient social media intensity contributed to these results is uncertain.Methods and ResultsOriginal article manuscripts were randomized to social media exposure compared with no social media exposure (control) at Circulation beginning in January 2015. Social media exposure consisted of Facebook and Twitter posts on the journal's accounts. To increase social media intensity, a larger base of followers was built using advertising and organic growth, and posts were presented in triplicate and boosted on Facebook and retweeted on Twitter. The primary outcome was 30‐day page views. Stopping rules were established at the point that 50% of the manuscripts were randomized and had 30‐day follow‐up to compare groups on 30‐day page views. The trial was stopped for futility on September 26, 2015. Overall, 74 manuscripts were randomized to receive social media exposure, and 78 manuscripts were randomized to the control arm. The intervention and control arms were similar based on article type (P=0.85), geographic location of the corresponding author (P=0.33), and whether the manuscript had an editorial (P=0.80). Median number of 30‐day page views was 499.5 in the social media arm and 450.5 in the control arm; there was no evidence of a treatment effect (P=0.38). There were no statistically significant interactions of treatment by manuscript type (P=0.86), by corresponding author (P=0.35), by trimester of publication date (P=0.34), or by editorial status (P=0.79).ConclusionsA more intensive social media strategy did not result in increased 30‐day page views of original research.

The research method used is a quantitative method using anaccidental sampling technique. The data analysis technique applied is the Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) test of SPSS 19.0. The results show that income has a positive and significant effect on student consumption behavior by 29.8%, lifestyle has a positive and significant impact on student consumption behavior by 27.6%, and social environment has a positive and significant effect on student consumption behavior by 24.1%. Income, lifestyle, and social environment simultaneously have a positive and significant impact on student consumption behavior with a significance value obtained reaches 0.000 <0.05, and Fcount is greater than Ftable (26.398> 2.47). Religiosity has a significant impact on consumption behavior with a significance value obtained of 0.036 <0.05, and tcount is greater than ttable (2.123> 1.985). Religiosity does not strengthen income, lifestyle, and social environment against consumption behavior.
