Factors Influencing Clothing Interest and Purchase Intention A Study of Generation Y Consumers in Malaysia

Sampling Method 
 
The target respondents of this study were consumers of Generation Y. Data were 
collected in four major shopping malls of the capital city (Kuala Lumpur) of Malaysia. The 
capital city is the largest city of Malaysia and has the highest number of shopping malls. 
Furthermore, it has attracted a large number of Generation Y consumers because of its 
availability of job opportunities and its strategic location for universities and colleges. A 
quota sampling was employed to collect data from a total of 300 Generation Y shoppers
evenly spread among the four shopping malls with 75 respondents each.
Questionnaires were 
distributed using mall intercept method to the target respondents; and completed 
questionnaires were collected personally by the researcher on the spot during the survey 
period. Personal administered survey is considered an effective method to improve the 
response rate, to reduce any uncertainty and to create a co-operative atmosphere among the 
target respondents (Malhotra, 2004).

The present study employed two
screening criteria in selecting the respondents: (1) 
the individual must be born within the period of 1977 to 1994, and (2) the person has 
purchased at least one clothing product in the past one month. Out of the 300 distributed 
questionnaires, only 292 questionnaires were usable and eight were rejected due to 
incompleteness. The sample size of 292 for the present study is considered sufficient to 
represent a big population (Saunders, Lewis, and Thornhill, 2012) and for structural equation 
modeling analysis (Hair et al., 2010).
Data Analysis
Sample Characteristics
 
As seen in Table 1, 45.2% of the respondents were male and 54.8% were female. 
About half of the respondents were Bachelor’s degree holders (44.5%) and working fulltime 
(59.9%) with an earning between RM3,001 and RM6,000 (47.6%). About two third of the 
respondents shopped for clothes between 1 to 6 times a month (76.4 percent).
