TL;DR
Teachers should classify shoppers according to a typology to determine their clients' personal needs and interests and tailor the educational or counseling message to meet those specific needs.
Abstract
Food selection is a key factor in the nutritional management of diabetes mellitus. Since up to 80% of food purchase decisions are made at the supermarket, the purpose of this study was to identify the criteria which influence point-of-purchase decision-making in women with NIDDM aged 40-60 years. A qualitative approach with individual interviews and in-store observations was used. Analysis of the interviews identified four decision-making typologies based on the extent nutrition, price and family needs were emphasized. The four typologies included (1) the Overloaded Shopper, (2) the Budget Shopper, (3) the Nutrition Savvy Shopper, and (4) the Out-of-Touch Shopper. Cluster analysis confirmed the typologies for 71% of the sample. Educators should classify shoppers according to a typology to determine their clients' personal needs and interests. Then, educators can tailor the educational or counseling message to meet those specific needs.
