on an individual’s needs, wants, and
behavior, since all facets of life are carried
out against the background of the society
in which an individual lives. Cultural
antecedents affect everyday behavior, and
there is empirical support for the notion
that culture is a determinant of certain
aspects of consumer behavior.
