Abstract


Millennials are indeed a hot topic that has been studied recently because they have unique characteristics. This generation is known as a generation that is synonymous with hedonic and consumptive lifestyles and tends to seek luxury. Therefore, this study seeks to understand the role of several factors that are likely to shape status consumption in the millennial generation, especially new ones. The survey was conducted on more than 200 millennial generation respondents who lived in several areas of Tasikmalaya City and its surroundings, were already working and financially independent using a questionnaire as the main data collection tool. To find out what factors can actually be constructs from the Status Consumption variable, Confirmatory Factor Analysis is used by using the approach of maximum likelihood estimation. The descriptive test results show that the construct of consumption status consists of self-directed symbolic / expressive value, other-directed symbolic / expressive values, experiential / hedonic values, utilitarian / functional value, and overall cost / sacrifice value are in good classification.

Keywords: Millennial; Consumption Status.
