Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subject of poverty traditionally has been overlooked by geographers. However, research in the broader area of consumer spatial behavior has revealed that the poor do behave differently from the higher income groups. Although various explanations have been put forward for this difference in behavior, it has generally been conceded that the poor form a distinct and different group within society. This thesis attempts to add to our understanding of human behavior by investigating the underlying determinants of the purchase decisions of low income or poverty level consumers. More specifically, this thesis analyzed the grocery and durable goods shopping habits of poor people in Edmonton and measured how satisfied they were with the stores they used. A sample group of consumers was interviewed in what was identified as being low income, inner city community. The sample group was found to contain both poverty level and non-poverty level consumers. This afforded the opportunity to observe the shopping behavior of two different groups who were being served by the same retail structure. Differences in shopping behavior were noted between the two groups. The low income respondents tended to patronize corner grocery stores while the higher income group travelled further for durable goods. These differences were found to be statistically significant. An analysis of the reasons given for their shopping behavior and their knowledge of the retail system revealed no significant differences between the two income groups. Rather, it was found that situational variables, particularly lack of mobility and the lack of adequate storage facilities, accounted for the differences in the shopping behavior. Attitudes towards the commercial environment by the two groups were measured on a semantic differential scale and were structured into five categories. These categories - selection of goods, quality of goods, quality of service, interior of store and prices - are those considered to be important to consumers in their patronage decisions. The scores indicated that the low income shoppers were as familiar with the advantages and disadvantages associated with the various stores and shopping strategies as were the higher income group. These findings supported the contention that low income shoppers are constrained by situational factors rather than behavioral factors and that the poor should not be considered as a separate sub-culture with radically different attitudes and values.
Book Synopsis Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences by : W. H. Shafer
Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by W. H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis seminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 24 (thesis year 1979) a total of 10,033 theses titles from 26 Canadian and 215 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 24 reports these submitted in 1979, on occasion, certain universities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

Book Synopsis The Physical Environment and Behavior by : Joachim F. Wohlwill
Download or read book The Physical Environment and Behavior written by Joachim F. Wohlwill and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of "Environment-and-Behavior" This bibliography is aimed at the researcher and advanced student working in the field of environmental psychology, as it has come to be designated over the past decade. A more appropriate term might be "environment-behavior studies," to suggest the important characteristic of this field as one that transcends the province of the psychologist, and brings together workers, as well as problems, methods, and concepts from a great diversity of disciplines and professional fields. Among these we may include geography and sociology, architecture, landscape architecture and planning, forestry, natural resource management and leisure and recreation research -- to name only the most important of the diverse fields from which material for this bibliography has been drawn. This is in fact one of the primary reasons for our belief in the value of such a volume. The literature in the environment-behavior field is scattered through the most diverse sources, including not only the major periodical and monographic literature in each of the above-mentioned disciplines and professions (and others as well), but also a variety of more specialized publications of varying degrees of accessibility. Thus it seemed to us helpful to the researcher, teacher and student in this area to bring this far-flung literature together in a single volume, that might be used as a guide to the field. We aimed at a comprehensive treatment, including both basic and applied aspects, and relations of behavior both to the man-made or artificial and to the natural environment.
