Marketing and society studies aiming to better comprehend consumer debt are of quite relevance as they effectively contribute to public policy making within regulatory agencies of credit, and also to consumer protection agencies that focus on financial consumer protection. In order to encourage research in this field, the objective of this study consisted on analyzing debt constraint factors. Accordingly, a theoretical framework was presented and a structural model of debt propensity, along with its antecedents found in the literature, specially the international one, was elaborated. Attitude towards money, attitude towards credit card, self control, compulsive buying, impulsive buying and debt propensity were the constructs analyzed in this research. As being a quantitative study, descriptive statistical analysis, psychometric analysis and multivariate analysis of structural equation modeling (SEM) were performed. The study s sample was constituted by 301 respondents, questionnaires were administered online using googledocs and its disclosure was made through e-mailing and social networks. Results show that there is a direct relation between self control and impulsive buying, and that power-prestige pursuit influence compulsive buying. The hypothesis concerning the direct influence of credit card attitude and consumer debt propensity was accepted. A need for marketing actions aiming to comprehend and help consumers to better understand credit card usage and rules was identified.
