    Psychological and Behavioral Aspects.

    Online shopping, due to its convenience, has become a


    prominent habit, especially among students, impacting time allocation and focus. Research
    reveals that compulsive buying behaviors, influenced by self-control, attentional biases, and
    ease of access, could lead students to spend excessive time online, potentially affecting
    academic priorities (Wenzi, 2021; Jiang et al., 2017). Generational differences further illustrate
    how societal trends and internet adoption affect students' shopping habits (Lissitsa & Kol,
    2016). Motivations and Acceptance of Online Shopping.Students engage in online shopping
    driven by convenience, enjoyment, and efficient transaction processes. The Technology
    Acceptance Model highlights these factors and points out that younger users may prioritize
    quick solutions, though concerns around security and financial literacy remain, especially
    among high school students (Liu & Forsythe, 2010; Zhou et al., 2011). Impact on Academic
    Performance and Time Management.Online shopping offers advantages like time-saving and
    reduced physical shopping trips; however, it may also lead to over-engagement, potentially
    interfering with study time. Studies suggest that compulsive buying can disrupt students'
    academic schedules, leading to poorer performance (Putman, 2015; Smith & Jones, 2018).
    Additionally, ease of shopping may help students meet personal needs efficiently but could
    cause financial and time management issues if not moderated (Johnson et al., 2018).Financial
    Management and Independence.Online shopping offers budget-friendly options, potentially
    promoting financial independence by enabling price comparisons and discounts. Martinez and
    Garcia (2020) found that students benefit from competitive prices, fostering budgeting skills
    and money management. Conversely, lack of financial discipline in online spending can lead to
    debt, adding financial stress that might detract from academic focus (Brown et al.,
    2019).Mental Health and Well-Being.Compulsive online shopping can serve as a coping
    mechanism for stress and anxiety, potentially creating a vicious cycle where academic
    challenges and financial strain exacerbate stress. Johnson and Smith (2020) observed that high-
    stress students might turn to online shopping for temporary relief, which may further impair
    their academic performance.COVID-19 Influence on Shopping Habits.The pandemic accelerated
    online shopping habits, especially with lockdowns restricting access to physical stores. This shift
    led students to embrace online shopping as a daily activity, possibly reinforcing habits that
    could detract from academic performance if not managed properly (Nguyen et al., 2020; Sheth,
    2020).Security concerns remain prominent, particularly regarding payment fraud and data
    protection. Students, often less experienced in financial transactions, may face risks that lead to
    financial losses and related stress, diverting attention from academic responsibilities
    (Fernandez, 2016). Social Media and E-Commerce Influence.Social media has heightened the
    appeal of online shopping through influencer marketing and targeted advertisements, which
    may encourage students to spend impulsively. This dynamic promotes consumerism while
    simultaneously distracting students from academic responsibilities (Chiaz, 2016; Kestenbaum,
    2018).Educational Resource Accessibility.Despite potential downsides, online shopping aids
    educational access, with students easily obtaining textbooks, digital content, and collaborative
    learning tools. Such resources, highlighted by Anderson (2017), support academic growth and
    provide supplementary learning options.
