SUMMARY:CyberPsychology, Behavior & Social Networking - Virtual Consum
 erism Special Issue
DESCRIPTION:Ushered in by Amazon and fueled by the COVID-19 pandemic, 
 virtual consumerism (VC) is more than simply the act of buying product
 s on the Internet. The term encompasses entire economies and the study
  of each facet of these intricate new systems. Modern technologies, bu
 oyed by current world conditions and trends, have enabled the creation
  of a seemingly inexhaustible parade of consumer products and services
 , forming new markets, and effectively blurring the boundary between â
 €śvirtual” and “real” consumerism.\r\nSpecial consideration will
  be given to articles that go beyond documenting a current state of af
 fairs in VC to those taking a data-driven approach to understanding vi
 rtual consumerism in a rapidly changing digital environment. \r\nWe a
 re seeking high-quality original empirical articles and review article
 s on the following topics (though other topics will be considered):\r\
 n\r\nVirtual Consumerism as an evolving and essential topic \r\nUsing
  virtual reality (VR)/mixed reality (MR)/extended reality/augmented re
 ality (AR) in online purchasing\r\nCurrent state of online shopping (i
 n the post-pandemic/peri-pandemic environment of 2021) \r\nConsumeris
 m in online games\r\nVirtual consumer health and supportive technologi
 es\r\nUsing data to study the needs, motives, and buying behaviors of 
 consumers\r\nThe influence of online marketing tools on customers' de
 cision-making processes and choices\r\nNew theoretical perspectives th
 at enable getting ahead of the data given a rapidly changing VC enviro
 nment. \r\n\n\nFor more information visit https://iactor.ning.com/eve
