Abstract
This paper aims at studying the homogeneity of the young European consuming patterns. Designed for both educational and research objectives, the study is based on a simplified model of young people purchasing behaviour, including decision determinants, influencers and personal values. A common survey was sent by e-mail to young Europeans in France, Germany, Italy and Spain in order to investigate the various decision patterns. A range of different analyses were made to determine if nationality is still a relevant issue in understanding young consumers decisions across a more and more integrated Europe. The results confirm a significant impact of national culture on the young people purchase-decision patterns and this effect is globally stronger than the influence of the type of purchased product.
