1.1 Background and Significant of Research
At the end of 2019 the world was faced with the COVID-19 which has spread to almost 140 countries in the world and had a major impact on various aspects of life, especially in the economic. COVID-19 affects various aspects such as politics, social, culture, economy, especially business. The emergence of new variants such as Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, Zeta and Eta made the number of victims affected by COVID-19 continues to increase, as does the number of deaths caused by COVID-19. According to the WHO, the COVID-19 outbreak has been classified as a pandemic starting March 11, 2020. People all over the world are still trying to adapt with conditions that require every individual to always follow health protocols. Such as practicing hand hygiene, consistently and correctly wearing a high-quality mask, improving ventilation, and keeping your distance, when possible, from the person who is sick or who tested positive.
Diele-Viegas (2020) showed therefore, quarantine, as well as social and economic isolation, was implemented in several countries, regions, and different economic sectors to curb its further spread. All of economic sectors also experienced difficult times. On the other hand, the advent of COVID-19 has made people pay more attention to cleanliness, health and safety in their daily activities. The population is also cautious when shopping for daily necessities. This pandemic has created a new pattern of behavior throughout the community to adapt to new habits in daily life. People are also trying to avoid contracting the COVID-19 virus by changing their shopping behavior through the use of e-commerce. It is known from previous research that e-commerce is one of the business areas of great interest during the pandemic as the community responds to the conditions caused by the COVID-19 virus.

CHAPTER 2 LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1 Definition of Consumer Behavior
Rajagopa (2020) analyzed Consumer behavior refers to the study of individuals or groups who are in the process of searching to purchase, use, evaluate, and dispose of products and services to satisfy their needs. According to Khoa (2020) People’s shopping behavior currently provides empirical evidence that people are starting to change their lifestyle from physical activities to virtual or online activities. Wildiyani (2016) explains that consumptive behavior is defined as excessive behavior without regard to rational considerations when purchasing things that are not necessities. Consumptive behavior can occur in all age groups and refers to an increase in the intensity of consumption of goods or services in order to get something new, gain possession satisfaction, or improve one's social status. Consumption behavior indicators can be used to determine a person's consumption behavior.
As stated by Chikhi, K. (2021) Consumer behavior tends to focus obsessively on the purchase of basic necessities, especially those related to virus prevention, such as personal protective equipment and cleaning gels. Rajagopa (2020) analyzed Consumer behavior refers to the study of individuals or groups who are in the process of searching to purchase, use, evaluate, and dispose of products and services to satisfy their needs. According to Khoa (2020) People’s shopping behavior currently provides empirical evidence that people are starting to change their lifestyle from physical activities to virtual or online activities. These changes directly or indirectly required changes in business strategy.
2.2 Rational and Irrational Consumption Definition
2.2.1 Rational Consumption Definition
Rational consumer behavior refers to the decision-making process of consumers in which they weigh the benefits and costs of a product or service before making a purchase. This behavior is based on the assumption that consumers are rational beings who make informed decisions based on their preferences and available information. According to this theory, consumers will choose products that provide them with the greatest utility or satisfaction at the lowest cost. This means that they will compare prices, quality, and other factors before making a purchase. Rational consumer behavior is important for businesses as it helps them understand how consumers make purchasing decisions and what factors influence these decisions. However, critics argue that this theory does not take into account other factors such as emotions, social influences, and marketing tactics that can also impact consumer behavior. Despite these criticisms, rational consumer behavior remains an important concept in economics and marketing.
The characteristics of consumers who are rational are:
a. Consumers will choose goods according to their needs.
b. Goods that consumers choose or buy provide optimal use for consumers.
c. Consumers will buy goods with guaranteed quality.
d. Consumers choose goods whose price is in accordance with the capabilities of consumers.
