This study examined the differences in the degree of perceived influence among teenagers regarding marketer- and nonmarketer controlled factors in the product categories of alcohol and clothing purchases. Results showed that personal choice and peer influence were crucial in both categories, especially during the pre--teen and early teen years; price was very important for current purchases; advertising was notably unimportant for alcohol but much more important for clothing.
