Abstract
Consumer online group buying has become a daily deal group buying format. However, the received literature remained primarily focused on certain specific issues pertaining to the older format, whereas the decision-making characteristics of the participants were largely ignored. This study develops a relationship model between consumer decision-making styles and their intention-to-participate in the daily deal online group buying format. Using structural equation modelling, the study finds significant relationship between the 'perfectionistic, high-quality conscious', 'novelty-fashion conscious', 'price conscious and value for money conscious' consumer decision-making styles and their intention-to-participate in online group buying. Implications for theory and online group buying firms are discussed.
