“…Furthermore, prior literature indicated that people with similar economic backgrounds were more likely found in the same social network, which would utilize social capital to benefit themselves for a better financial outcome. Thus, in an investment context, income may serve as a mediator in a positive relationship between the social network and investment decisions (Pereira et al, 2017). Our findings confirmed that this association was mediated through income levels significantly (H2), as demonstrated in the decomposition analysis.…”

PurposeDrawing on the literature regarding the social network and stock investment, this paper aims to focus on the use of the social network on stock ownership decisions at individual levels. This paper also attempts to shed light on potential mediators of the relationship between the social network and stock ownership.Design/methodology/approachTo determine the relationship between stock ownership and using the social network, logistic regression was used. In order to isolate the effect of using hs on stock ownership, a decomposing method was adopted.FindingsThe findings provide evidence of the positive contribution of the use of social networks in stock ownership. Personal characteristics, such as household net worth, homeownership, education level and risk tolerance, may play a vital role in influencing individuals' decisions regarding stock investment. In addition, this study contributes to our understanding of income's mediating role in stock investment decisions.Originality/valueFirst, the authors contribute theoretically by drawing from the assumptions of social networking contagion theory, social influence theory, and social capital theory. Second, we explored potential mediators of the relationship between the social network and stock ownership. Third, this study complements the literature in incorporating the social network in business, financial professionals to be exact.

“…In the opposite direction, we include a variable measuring self-perceived discrimination. The proxies for social capital used are in line with other studies based on ESS data [12,[42][43][44]. We further consider interaction variables between the covariates male and informal network/civic engagement.…”

“…Understanding how these financial problems affect consumers is crucial to design financial services that respond to their needs. Especially when consumers are feeling credit constrained (Pereira, Coelho, & Lourenço, 2017) or lack of financial literacy, they are in need of financial advice (Gerrans & Hershey, 2017). Research also focuses on understanding how financially literate are women (Bucher-Koenen, Lusardi, Alessie, & van Rooji, 2017) and how parents' financial behavior affects their children's financial behavior (Tang, 2017).…”

The purpose of this chapter is to become a guide for future research agenda that allows researchers in marketing and other disciplines to find a way to drive research studies in consumer behavior. The text provides an interpretative analysis of the latest editorials, reviews and research articles published in top-tier consumer research journals. Journals such as the International Journal of Consumer Studies, Journal of Consumer Affairs, Journal of Consumer Behavior, Journal of Consumer Culture, Journal of Consumer Psychology, Journal of Consumer Research, and Psychology & Marketing among others were selected to offer a broad view of the challenges and research opportunities in this growing research area. Analyzed papers have been grouped by common topics into five theoretical streams (homoeconomicus, psychodynamic, behavioral, cognitive, and humanistic) and two methodological perspectives (positivist, interpretive). Results suggest strong affinity in recent papers to cognitive-humanistic-interpretive research focus, with online consumer behavior, transformative and culture consumer behavior and green consumption as main and commonly treated topics. Conclusions and future perspectives on consumer behavior research are, also presented.
