This research aimed to develop social emotions related to consumption behavioral factors of students. The sample was separated into 2 groups as follows; the group in exploratory factor analysis (EFA) which was 1200 Thai undergraduate students and the another group with multi-stage sampling was 1480 in confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The instrument used in the study was the social emotions related to consumption behavior questionnaire. The data obtained from the exploratory factor analysis were analyzed for principal component analysis (PC) and using the orthogonal rotation in varimax method. The findings found that there were 5 factors of the social emotions related to consumption behavior which were emotional assessment, social consciousness, symbolic perception, valuable in public sight, and the perception of social roles. The analysis model was consistent with empirical data and the chi-square was 1516.20, df = 898, GFI=0.956, AGFI=0.952, RMSEA=0.022
