His guardian farm is located at an ocean monument, and his raid farm is on top of the ocean, close to a savanna biome where there is a pillager outpost. He has also made a highly productive Wither Skeleton farm. The top-most floor consists of his bed, valuables chest and a back-up gear chest. A end crystal was placed by Grian as a prank, the crystal was defused by an arrow shot also by Grian, but fortunately impulseSV had placed water to protect his belongings.
He also build a simple iron farm design, two bee farms and there is a ladder down to bedrock for his double chunk slime farm. First he hid it in a secret pathway which was accessible trough a lava trashcan, this TEGG was taken by Grian. The second time impulseSV created a 5-question quiz for the hermits to solve.

In another aspect, Watson and Tellegen maintain that negative affect may stimulate consumers to pursue for immediate gratification through self-compensation mechanism.
Under the circumstances, consumers tend to perform impulsive buying to release their negative feelings of stress, fatigue, and upset Youn and Faber, When exploring the relationship between impulsive consumer style and unhealthy eating, Verplanken et al.
During the purchase process, consumers experience a significant mood change toward positive affective states Rook and Fisher, ; Dittmar, a , b. This is why it is difficult to resist the impulsive purchase urge, especially while people are in the negative affective states. Goffman points out that when people successfully gain face, they will experience positive feelings, such as pleasure and pride; when they lose face, negative emotions, like embarrassment and anxiety, will be generated.
Redding and Ng also propose that when people lift face in social interactions, they obtain high level of satisfaction; while when they lose face, they may think they are rejected by others or excluded by reference groups, and then feel worried and uncomfortable.
Considering the significant relation between face and social influences, we speculate that the negative emotional states generated by face loss would enhance impulsive purchase.
Individuals often suppress instant desires by controlling themselves in order to obtain delayed over immediate gratification.
Without self-control, people tend to perform desired behaviors without resisting sudden temptations. They may act instinctively rather than pursue long-term goals. For example, individuals with low self-control are more likely to overeat Vohs, , misuse credit card Pirog and Roberts, , and drink heavily Hagger et al.
By contrast, high self-control is found to be linked with a host of positive outcomes, such as better monetary management Romal and Kaplan, , consumption of virtue products Ein-Gar et al. Self-control may buffer the effect of face loss on impulsive consumption because it can help consumers to restrain immediate impulse.
Hoch and Loewenstein regard self-control as the outcome of a conflict between desire and willpower. When desire for a product suddenly increases overwhelms deliberated consideration on associated future problems, self-control fails to inhibit impulsive purchase. Therefore, some scholars suggest that impulse buying behavior results from a lack of self-control Baumeister, ; Faber and Vohs, In other words, self-control helps consumers to resist immediate temptations.
When self-control is enhanced through repeated physical and cognitive exercises, impulse buying tendency consequently reduced Sultan et al. However, one needs to spend a lot of internal resources to compensate the negative emotions. Because of the limited cognitive resources, self-control may break down when people are lack of sufficient resources to regulate themselves Baumeister et al.
As such, we propose that self-control can mitigate the influence of face loss on impulsive consumption. Specifically, compared to their counterparts, individuals with high self-control have more self-regulating resources to adapt to unfavorable situation, such as face loss Fehr et al.
Accordingly, they are better at controlling their impulses, inhibiting undesirable intentions, and reacting rationally when they are going through face loss. In contrast, for those people with low self-control ability, when they feel they are losing face, they are more likely to conduct impulse buying behavior to repair face loss because they lack self-regulating resources. Therefore, this paper argues that self-control can moderate the impact of face loss on impulse buying behavior. H3 : Self-control moderates the relationship between face loss and impulse buying.
Specifically, the influence of face loss on impulse buying is stronger for the consumers with low self-control than those with high self-control.
Ethical review and approval was not required for the study on human participant in accordance with the local legislation and institutional requirements. A total of undergraduates from a university located in southern China were employed in this experimental vignette study.
Numerous prior studies have recruited college students as respondents to test hypotheses e. Besides, college students are relevant sample in our study because the scenarios are familiar to college students. We randomly assigned participants to one of two experimental conditions, namely face loss condition and control condition. In both conditions, we ask participants to write an essay, in which we manipulated the levels of face loss. After that, the participants were instructed to complete the survey measures of emotion, impulsive buying, self-control, and manipulation check.
All the participants got a small gift worth 5 yuan as a reward for participating in the experiment at the end of the experiment. In this study, we finally obtained valid responses. There were 72 in the face loss group and 72 in the control group, respectively.
The participants included 74 Among them, 20 Their mean age was Participants were randomly assigned to one of two experimental conditions, namely face-loss condition and control condition.
Participants in both groups were instructed to recall their consumption experience and then describe their experience. Specifically, in the face-loss group, we asked participants to recall their consumption experience that makes them feel loss face, and then write an essay nearly words about this experience as specific as they can. Particularly, we instructed the participants to describe in detail why they think they lost face in that situation, especially how they felt at the time.
As for control group, we asked the participants to recall what they did during the day, and then write a running diary nearly words of all their activities for the day. We instructed the participants to describe what they did, when they did it, and where they did it objectively, and avoid using emotion-related statements.
The item was then reversed coded to indicate negative emotion state. In this study, sneaker was selected as the product because it is public consumption and is affordable to college students. Specifically, we asked participants to imagine the following scenario: You caught your eye on a pair of sneakers when you are shopping today. However, you have no plan to buy a pair of sneakers in the near future, so you are hesitant to buy it today. Self-control was measured with 13 items taken from Tangney et al.
In order to check whether our manipulation was successful, we asked the participants whether they felt face loss in the situation they described using a four-item scale. Before the formal experiment, we recruited 40 undergraduate students from the same university to participate in a pre-study to check whether our manipulation was effective. Following the same procedure as formal experiment, participants were randomly assigned to two groups face-loss group and control group.
They were asked to complete the same face-loss manipulation task, and then evaluate to what extent they felt face loss in the situation they described. The results indicated that our manipulation on face loss was effective. We propose that individuals are more likely to make impulsive purchases when they encounter face-loss in Hypothesis 1. Therefore, Hypothesis 1 was supported.
Furthermore, Hypothesis 2 suggests that negative emotion mediates the relationship between face loss and impulse buying. Thus, Hypothesis 2 was supported. Hypothesis 3 suggests that self-control moderates the relationship between face loss and impulse buying. Prior to test Hypothesis 3, we centered all the relevant variables in advance in order to prevent multicollinearity Cohen, Figure 1 depicts the interaction pattern.
The results suggested that the influence of face loss on impulse buying is stronger for individuals low in self-control than those high in self-control. Therefore, Hypothesis 3 was supported. Figure 1. Impulse buying as a function of face loss face loss group vs. The current study conducts an experiment to test the impact of face loss on impulse buying and its decision-making mechanism.
The result shows that when one encounters the situation of face loss, he or she will show stronger tendency of impulsive purchase.
It is a temporal resource that could be both gained and lost. When consumers find they do not meet social standards or expectations, they believe they might not be able to get respect from others or be excluded from peer groups, which is a threat of losing face. Under this circumstance, consumers are likely to be irrational and eager to make up for the lost face. In addition, when people are in the state of face loss, they are stressed, anxious, and depressed.
They need to consume a large amount of internal resources to regulate their impulses Vohs and Faber, The depletion of resources might generate their failures of self-control, which make them surrender to buying impulses. The result is consistent with our speculation — for individuals with high self-control, face loss has no significant effect on impulse buying; whereas individuals low in self-control tend to perform impulsive buys when they suffer from face loss.
This study makes several theoretical contributions to marketing and psychology research. Firstly, existing studies explore the influences of some cultural factors on impulsive buying Zhang and Shrum, ; Zhang et al. Hence, we include the indigenous cultural concept of face in impulsive buying research. After a comprehensive review, we focus on the aspect of face losing in the current study instead of face enhancing which is stressed in most of the previous research.
Moreover, we treat face loss as a situational variable rather than a dispositional value orientation and test its role in impulse buying. Last but not least, the moderating role of self-control on the relationship between face loss and impulse buying further validates the viewpoint that dispositional and situational interaction variables are significant predictors of impulsive purchase behavior Xiao and Nicholson, ; Amos et al.
This reminds researchers should pay more attention to the interactive effects of psychological factors and environmental stimuli in enacting impulse buys.
In practice, the current research could benefit both practitioners and consumer groups. Firstly, the findings could provide useful consumer insights for industry participants.
Marketing managers should lay stress on the factor of face when designing relevant strategies. For example, when designing advertisements, they can highlight the situation of face loss for those who do not buy specific items and emphasize the role of face repair in the products. In terms of consumers, this study can help them better understand the decision-making process of impulse buying.
Several studies demonstrate that impulse buying will bring about a series of negative social, financial, and emotional consequences Rook, ; Dittmar et al. Through the result of this study, consumers could realize the role of self-control in the process of impulse buying formation and regulate themselves to achieve delayed gratification rather than instant pleasure. This study also has some limitations. Firstly, this study examines the influence of face loss on impulse buying with the mediation of emotion and the moderation of self-control.
However, we believe there might be other relevant variables that should be incorporated in the future research. For instance, some marketing stimuli and retail environmental factors might intertwine with the variables in the current research and affect impulse buying behavior.
So scholars should build a more comprehensive model that provides novel findings to the research in the impulse buying area. Secondly, this paper focuses on the antecedents of impulse buying behavior. As some scholars suggest, it is worth exploring the consequences of impulse buys in the near future Xiao and Nicholson, Thirdly, as mentioned above, face is a universal concept that exists not only in Eastern but also in Western societies Goffman, , Future research should be conducted to test the theory in other cultures and, if possible, make a cross-cultural comparison to build a cultural-universal theory.
