Hemen hemen her ürünün alternatifinin olduğu günümüzde, tüketiciler istek ve ihtiyaçlarını karşılamak için oldukça zengin bir çeşitliliğine sahiptir. Bu istek ve ihtiyaçların farklılaşması ve fazlalaşması, ürün arz eden firmaların işini her geçen gün zorlaştırmaktadır. Artan rekabet ortamında başarılı olmak isteyen firmalar, tüketici taleplerini doğru analiz etmeli ve en üst seviyede müşteri memnuniyeti sağlamalıdırlar. Her bireyin satın alma davranışını ayrı ayrı analiz etmenin imkânsız olduğu düşünüldüğünde, bireyleri ortak özellikleri açısından gruplandırmak, tüketici davranışlarını anlamak açısından firmalara kolaylık sağlayacaktır. Birey davranışlarının daha kolay anlaşılabilmesine yardımcı olabilmek amacıyla; kişilik kavramının ortak özellikler açısından beş faktör altında birleştirilmesi, pazarlama biliminde tüketici davranışlarını anlamak için, araştırmacılara kolaylık sağlayabilecek bir yöntemdir. Bu çalışmanın amacı; kişilik özelliklerinin, genç tüketicilerin satın alma tarzları üzerindeki etkilerini belirlemektir. Araştırma amacına ulaşmak için araştırma kapsamında, beş faktör kişilik özellikleri (BFT) ve tüketici satın alma tarzları envanteri (CSI) kullanılarak, genç tüketicilerin kişilik özelliklerine göre satın alma davranışları incelenmiştir. Analiz sonuçlarına göre, farklı kişilik tiplerine sahip genç tüketicilerin satın alma tarzlarında da değişiklikler olduğu belirlenmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular; bireylerin kişilik özelliklerine göre farklılaşan satın alma tarzlarını anlamlandırmak açısından literatüre katkı sağlamaktadır.

Today, it is virtually impossible to find a product without alternatives. Thus, the consumers enjoy a wide range of options to meet their wants and needs. The diversity and growth of such wants and needs, on the other hand, make the job of the suppliers harder and harder. Any firm which seeks success in an environment of growing competition should engage in an accurate analysis of consumer demand and maximize customer satisfaction. Given the impossibility of analyzing the purchasing behavior of every consumer on an individual basis, focusing on groups of individuals based on their shared characteristics would make consumer behavior easier to understand and comprehend for the firms. An analysis of the behavior of individuals based on five personality traits, in this context, could make it easier for the researchers to understand consumer behavior. Against this background, the present study aims to identify the impact of personality traits on the purchasing styles of young consumers. To do so, the Big Five Traits (BFT) model and the Consumer Style Inventory (CSI) were employed to analyze purchasing behavior among young consumers, with reference to their personality traits. The analysis led to the conclusion that young consumers who have different types of personality exhibit different styles of purchasing behavior. The findings reached contribute to the literature seeking to understand the changes in purchasing styles with reference to the personality traits of individuals.
