Abstract
influence the outcome of online shopping. According to study, shopping is something that a person does when they are anxious since it aids in the achievement of other hedonic goals, such as self-gratification and mood restoration. The participants are Trinity University of Asia college students in Semester B of the academic year 2021-;2022. The research aimed to determine the levels of stress, work readiness, and online shopping behavior; to identify the socio-demographic profile with the three variables; to describe the relationship between stress, work readiness, and online shopping; and to better understand the tendencies of the participants who engage in online shopping. The Perceived Stress Scale, Work Readiness Scale, and Compulsive Online Shopping Scale were used by the researchers, and they were distributed via a Google Form. For data analysis, the researchers used IBM SPSS. Participants demonstrated low levels of compulsive online shopping, moderate levels of stress, and high or exemplary levels of work readiness. Non-parametric tests that determine differences between the sample and the variable include the Kruskal-Wallis H and Mann-Whitney U. The Kruskal-Wallis H Test revealed no significant differences between the variables in terms of socio-demographics. Furthermore, the gender demographic and perceived stress were found to be significantly different using the Mann Whitney U Test. However, there was no significant difference between online shopping and work readiness, or between work readiness and perceived stress. With the use of Spearman's rho, there is a significant positive correlation between online shopping and perceived stress. As for online shopping and work readiness, there was a significant negative correlation between them. Lastly, they demonstrated a significant negative correlation between work readiness and perceived stress.
