eBay Studies Psychology of Giving and Targets Emotional Gifters

eBay commissioned a survey on the psychology of gifting that shows the majority of American women identify with one of four types of holiday gifters: Emotional, Practical, Convenience or Last Minute. More women consider themselves to be Emotional Gifters, whose shopping behavior focus on planning, personalization and finding unique, thoughtful gifts for everyone on their list. This is in contrast to the 21 percent who often give gift cards or cash, and the 16 percent who feel holiday shopping is something that needs to get done, rather than a joyful experience.
