This article examines the relationship between online hedonic shopping motivations and obsessive–compulsive buying of online buyers. The useable data of 503 respondents are analysed through structural equation modelling (SEM). The results indicate that online buyers exhibit adventure seeking and idea shopping, which have a positive effect on obsessive–compulsive buying, whereas role shopping and value shopping are found to be negatively significant to obsessive–compulsive buying. Surprisingly, gratification seeking and social shopping are found to be insignificant. The implications of the study for researchers and managers are discussed.

The purpose of this study to analyse whether compulsive buying in teenagers is related to gender and alcohol and cannabis use in a sample of 573 students aged 14–17 from secondary education schools in Burgos (Spain) (M = 15.65; SD = 1.04). Random cluster sampling was performed to select the sample. The Compulsive Buying Questionnaire was used together with two extra promts: ‘Indicate how much alcohol you consume’ and ‘Indicate how much cannabis you take’. Descriptive statistics were used in data analysis, while MANOVA was used to study gender differences in alcohol and cannabis use, compulsive buying and their interaction. The results show higher scores for female compulsive buyers than for men, higher scores for alcohol and cannabis users’ compulsive buying than for non-users, respectively, and higher scores for female users than for male users. A certain interaction was also observed between alcohol and cannabis use. A higher alcohol consumption entailed a higher score in compulsive buying, with cannabis users who did not consume alcohol obtaining the highest scores. Thus, prevention programmes should consider teenagers’ gender and the risk of taking toxic substances.
