Hi my name is Brenton Scott. I would like to work my philosophy project to add to the Ego Depletion wiki page. Under the Consumer Behavior section I will add a paragraph about Free Will. As I research Free will and Ego Depletion, I have found that these to are related to business and I would like to add more to that section. I want to explain Baumeister's and Hofmann's approach to consumerism behavior. On how consumers has freedom of choice; meaning their self control on shopping. Also how the market will cause consumers to loss that free choice, forcing them to shop impulsively. For future research I want to look at the citations used in the articles I found for more understanding on the subject.

Baumeister, R. F., Sparks, E. A., Stillman, T. F., & Vohs, K. D. (2008). Free will in consumer behavior: Self-control, ego depletion,

          and choice. Journal Of Consumer Psychology, 18(1), 4-13. doi:10.1016/j.jcps.2007.10.002

This article explains the connection between ego depletion and free will in consumer behavior. It explains that free will are the choices we make based on our interest and like. In consumer behavior free will is making the choice to buy a product we want to buy and therefore buying that product. It also explains how ego depletion can be seen in consumer behavior. If a consumer is ego depleted, meaning the no longer have self control and can't form rational decision making, they will then become impulsive shoppers.

Hofmann, W., Strack, F., & Deutsch, R. (2008). Free to buy? Explaining self-control and impulse in consumer behavior. Journal Of

         Consumer Psychology, 18(1), 22-26. doi:10.1016/j.jcps.2007.10.005

This article explains the Reflective Impulsive Model and how it cant be seen from a consumer behavior point of view. That impulsivity from consumers comes from a form a stimuli that is the trigger to make people shop. The stimuli of consumers is mainly advertisement that presents wants and desire focus on a product. It also explains how free will is the possibility of choices and the action to achieve, along with control over one's own actions.

Hello!

This topic is very interesting! For my feedback, I feel that you are doing a great job specially when you back up the information you provide for the reader with sources. I do have a question though but I may be confused, the way you are citing the sources next to your sentences, is that the way your Wikipedia Page has been doing it the whole time? For example, I see that you put the authors last name at the end of your sentences, I know that in class we went over on how to cite the articles and basically have like a number next to it. For example, "Yaneli needs to add her rough draft on her talk page" [1] I hope my question makes sense. But overall you're doing a great job!! Keep it up!! (: Also, I have not gotten the chance to input my rough draft on my talk page so it's not your computer. I'm planning to get that done this week. GYaneli789 (talk) 02:28, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
