Further, the shopping behaviour of the different segment youth shoppers has been described in terms of their visit frequency, amount spent and time spent at the mall. Findings reveal that on the basis of shopping motives youth shoppers could be segregated into four segments viz. entertainment seekers, value seekers, escapist and adventure seekers and on the basis of psychographic profile three segments emerged namely - influential, survivor and experiences.
