Advice !
This is a challenging assignment, in that it requires reflection on the material presented in the module and its
relevance to guiding practice. There are no right or wrong answers, and this is an opportunity for reflection and
imaginative thinking. However, you should present clear and convincing explanations of the importance of the
issues you identify.
You will be assessed primarily on the logic of your argument, the appropriateness of the issues you include, and the
quality of the accompanying evaluation of the significance of these issues. Good answers will present a coherent,
integrated perspective of the issues you cover rather than simply identifying a set of independent issues. You do not
need to cover all of the material provided within the lectures. The question allows you to focus on specific issues or
to attempt a more general overview if you wish.
Nature of Assessment: This is a SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENT. See ‘Weighting’ section above for the percentage that
this assignment counts towards your final module mark.
Word Limit: +/-10% either side of the word count (see above) is deemed to be acceptable. Any text that exceeds an
additional 10% will not attract any marks. The relevant word count includes items such as cover page, executive
summary, title page, table of contents, tables, figures, in-text citations and section headings, if used. The relevant
word count excludes your list of references and any appendices at the end of your coursework submission.
You should always include the word count (from Microsoft Word, not Turnitin), at the end of your coursework
submission, before your list of references.
Title/Cover Page: You must include a title/ cover page that includes: your Student ID, Module Code, Assignment
Title, Word Count. This assignment will be marked anonymously, please ensure that your name does not appear on
any part of your assignment.

on time as all late submissions are subject to a late penalty. We would recommend you allow 30 minutes to upload
your work and check the submission has been processed and is correct. Please make sure you submit to the correct

assignment for plagiarism before you submit your final version. See “Viewing Your Originality Report” for guidance.

Requirements:
This assessment requires you to reflect on your own recent purchases and to analyse your behaviour using consumer psychology models, theories and techniques etc. learnt during the course of the module. To begin, choose two recent purchases (in the last year), one from each of the two categories below:
1. A product or service that you bought for yourself.
2. A product or service that you bought for somebody else.
For each of these purchases you must reflect on why and how you made the purchase using the theories, models and areas we have covered in the module. For each purchase highlight and apply, models/theories/areas that explain your purchase the best. Make sure you choose different theories/models for each of the purchases. Through the application of models/theories etc. you will be able to dissect and scrutinize various aspects of your decision making processes and should be able to comment on various aspects such as conscious or unconscious influences, planned or impulsive/ irrational aspects, emotional or cognitive components and ethical or unethical elements etc. You are not required to conclude on whether your decisions or purchases were correct or incorrect.
Theories/models which were discussed in the lectures do not need explanations or descriptions in your assignment. The focus is on application on these in your reflection. You must use at least one theory/model covered in the lectures in your assignment. You can also include other theories/models and examples of consumer research from your additional reading from journal articles. If you use a theory/model, which has not been covered in the lectures, you will need to explain this briefly in the assignment. However, be aware that lengthy descriptions or inclusion of too many new theories or results of too many studies of consumer research will use your word count quickly. You can also draw on non-academic literature such as industry examples and case studies.
A word count breakdown is suggested below along with the general structure of the assignment. However, this breakdown of words and structure is simply a guide; you may choose to present your assessment in a different format if you feel this is appropriate. For each assignment section use both numbers and a heading/subheading and signpost that you have covered both types of purchases and which theories you are using to explain each one.
1. Introduction: approx. 100 words 2. Background for the product/service you bought for yourself (when did you buy it, what specifically did you buy, where were you when you made the purchase, where you alone etc.): approx. 150 words 3. Reflection of the decision making process for the product/service you bought for yourself. This reflection must include a reflection on issues related to ethics or sustainability aspects of your product/service and your own decision: approx. 750 words. 4. Background for the product/service you bought for somebody else (when did you buy it, what specifically did you buy, where were you made the purchase, where you alone etc.): approx. 150 words 5. Reflection of the decision making process for the product/service you bought for somebody else. This reflection must include a reflection on issues related to ethics or sustainability aspects of your product/service and your own decision: approx. 750 words.           6. Conclusion: approx. 100 words.

2. Daily Log/ Journal (30 points)
3. Evaluation (30 points)
Part 1- Introduction:
With a little information, knowledge, and practice you can make the kind of choices that
will positively affect your future. For the next 21 consecutive days you will focus on a
goal to improve one specific area of your life. Maybe you want to improve your nutrition
and give up junk food. Maybe you need to exercise more.
Healthful nutrition/dietary practices( cutting out junk food, reducing salt,
drinking more water, losing weight, gaining weight…)
OR
Physical Fitness ( starting an exercise program, lifting weights, adding muscle
mass…)
Remember: In order for behaviors and habits to change you must first have a plan of
action and second be 100% committed to work at it.
1. Identify the problem your goal will be centered around.
2. Keep track of your food or Exercise habits for three days.
3. Enter data and perform computer analysis; print required reports. Use the
printouts from your dietary analysis to complete the assignment.
4. What is your goal- be specific.The goal must be S.M.A.R.T.
Specific
Measurable
Attainable
Realistic
Timely
5. Describe your plan in detail: What support or food or equipment will you
need? What will your toughest obstacles be? What is your plan to get through
the obstacles? What are the costs of not changing this particular behavior (5
years from now, 10 years from now, 20 years from now).How do you see this
benefiting you (5 years from now, 10 years from now, 20 years from now).
Part 2- Daily Logs- must track 21 days, only submit 3
days. Use an App or Supertracker.org to track your
behavior.
Attach Your Food Record and 3-Day Average print-outs.
FREE APP:
MyFitnessPal: Tracks your calories ( My favorite)

Purpose: To provide you with an assessment of the nutritional adequacy of the
foods you eat and to help you plan a dietary change that could potentially benefit your
health.This assignment gives you a wonderful opportunity to become aware of your
eating and the nutrients you consume. You will be graded on the quality of your work,
not the nutritional quality of your diet. The purpose of this assignment is to help you
make the connection between your diet and what you learned in class. The assignment
is divided into 3 parts.
Part 1. Keep track of your food intake for three days.
Part 2. Enter data and perform computer analysis; print required reports.
_______________________________________
Record all the food and drink that you consume throughout the day for three days;
record one weekend day and two weekdays. The daysdon’t have to be in a row. It’s
most important that they are “typical” days and represent how youcommonly eat.
Food Recording Basics:
Be specific – Please record all the foods you consume throughout the day. For
example, if you eat a hamburger, please record each part of the sandwich (i.e. the bun,
the meat, the toppings, etc.).
Be exact – (as much as possible). Remember to include sugar and cream added to
coffee or tea; butter, margarine, jam orjelly on toast or sandwiches; sauces and gravy;
salad dressings; mayonnaise, mustard, andrelish. Include coffee, tea and diet sodas.
Be diligent- Try to stick to the food recording protocol as closely as possible. Try to set
aside a certain time each day to enter your foods into the Computer.
Be prepared – If you are going to be away from a computer for an extended period of
time, record foods in a small notebook.Do not wait until the end of the day to try to
remember what you ate previously. Recordwhat you eat throughout the day
Be honest – You are not going to be criticized or judged on the foods you eat. All
information regarding your food intake is confidential, so report honestly and accurately.
Part 3- Evaluation, reflection and analysis of journals.Use the printouts
from your dietary analysis to complete the assignment. Once you have gathered
your journal entries, sit back, reflect and review them. You are looking for clues
to why and how you engage in the behavior. How satisfied are you with your
performance? Have you achieved your goals, why or why not? What obstacles
did you face? What is your prediction for the future? How will you change or
continue to self-regulate your behavior? What did you learn about yourself
throughout this process?
Assessment of Journal Questions
