Abstract
Shopping addiction is a destructive behavioral addiction characterized by compulsive purchasing with negative consequences for one's finances and social well-being. In the current study, we conducted a literature review aimed at identifying difficulties in the self-monitoring of shopping behavior using existing technological solutions. Based on these results, we developed a guide for designing an online survey to explore the challenges and opportunities in applying social sensing to the problem of shopping addiction. The potential results of the online survey are expected to shed light on designing social sensing solutions to reduce shopping addiction.
