Using this feminist ethnographic method, this paper will look at women's problems and poverty as they experience it. This paper a described the forms of gender relations that occur within the household. Women always experience a double burden, especially natural Toba Batak family that adopts patriarchy. On the one hand, they have to take care of the household well, on the other hand. They also have to work to help the family income. This double burden causes his whole life to be centered on family and others. Likewise, for some women in Lubuk Raya Village, did not make them as women who resign and accept the situation. On the contrary, this double burden pushes them to fight and get out of their poverty.

Measuring Love Languages and Relationship Quality

This research is part of our on-going project to improve couple’s resiliency. There were two parts of the study. The first part is measuring love languages or individual types on what makes them feel loved between two age groups. Second study is assessing relationship quality. Measuring these variables on larger scale will aid the project on better understanding the whole concept of couple resiliency and strengthen love languages/relationship quality scale validity. Late adolescents and early adults participated in Study 1 (adjusted number of participants; n = 626) and married participants filled in online survey (n = 259). Two scales were developed to gather data measuring love languages and relationship quality. Results indicated there were differences of love languages between age groups.

Online Buying Decision Process among Gen Y Instagram Users

The rapid growth of cosmetic industry give an opportunity for companies to acquire and engage consumers by using a new e-commerce paradigm called social commerce (s- commerce). One of the most prominent s-commerce among Gen Y is Instagram as this social networking site enables users to browse online stores through its visual interface via mobile device. They are also used to online shop through this platform. Recent researches have shown interests in investigating factors that affect the online shopping behavior in social networking sites but very little is done to understand the process of online buying decision, notably Instagram. In this study, the data were collected by interviewing four participants who have experienced the buying of lip product through Instagram. Online buying decision process framework by Karimi (2013) was adapted for this purpose. The interview was carefully transcribed and analysed using qualitative content analysis (Mayring, 2000). The result of this study shows that the process of online buying decision process on Instagram differs from e-commerce or other social networking sites (SNSs), in terms of how they function this SNS as a platform to search and make buying decision. Major factors affecting its process are habitual Instagram usage and trust to Instagram storeowners. The result also signifies consumers impulse buying tendency. As there is no adequate research on this phenomenon, consumer behavior implications and further research directions are discussed in this study. Keywords: Online Buying Decision, Instagram, Gen Y
