PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to understand how identities drive customer values, attitudes toward organic foods and satisfaction, all of which influence world or mouth (WOM).Design/methodology/approachQuestionnaire surveys were administered to the purchasers of organic foods. In total, 512 completed responses were obtained for data analysis.FindingsStrongly defined social identity and role identity are significant antecedents of consumers’ health consciousness and socially responsible consumer behavior (SRCB). This finding explains why organic shoppers value their health and the environment (i.e. self- and others-oriented values). Additionally, health consciousness and SRCB significantly influence attitudes toward organic foods. The study reveals that attitudes toward organic foods positively influence organic shoppers’ satisfaction, and their satisfaction increases positive WOM. Finally, the moderating effects of involvement and mass media are examined. When organic shoppers are strongly involved with organic foods, their health consciousness has a more positive effect on their attitudes toward organic foods. However, organic shoppers’ involvement did not moderate the effect of SRCB on attitudes toward organic foods. Likewise, the mass media did not moderate the effect of health consciousness and SRCB on attitudes toward organic foods.Originality/valueThis study incorporates critical factors such as the antecedents of the customer values to develop a comprehensive model for understanding of organic shoppers’ consumption of organic foods.

The fashion industry has expanded at the expense of the environment. Consumption and environmental pollution both serve as a wake-up call to the global endeavour to adopt more socially and environmentally responsible behaviours. It implies, in particular, a paradigm shift in consumer behaviour away from conventional to green products. Understanding the factors that influence consumer purchasing decisions is critical in developing the demand for and commitment to sustainable apparel consumption. In support of the United Nation’s efforts to promote sustainable consumption in Malaysia, a study was conducted to determine the motivating factors that influence consumers’ purchase intentions for sustainable apparel. The moderating effect of fashion consciousness on the outcome was also examined. An extended model of the Motivation-Opportunity-Ability (MOA) Theory and Self-Determination Theory (SDT) was developed and tested using 324 responses collected from the Malaysian millennial generation in six major urban locations. The results of the structural equation modelling analysis indicated that the elements of motivation, opportunity, and ability were all positively linked with the sustainable apparel purchase intention. Fashion consciousness had a moderating effect on the relationships between the three drivers (motivation, opportunity, and ability) and purchase intention. The research findings provide valuable insights for businesses to formulate a sustainable and unified business model that incorporates environmental, social, and consumer considerations into core business practices. These insights would also help designers to advance the development of sustainable products as an area of innovation and support policymakers in achieving the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The rise in the world’s demand for fish is increasingly met by aquaculture. However, this sector still shows various criticalities in terms of sustainability of practices, first and foremost, that of feed availability. Nowadays, the use of insect meal represents one of the potential sustainable solutions, but consumption intention of fish fed with insect meal and the factors affecting it have not yet been adequately understood. This study investigates 318 Italian consumers’ intentions to buy fish fed with insect meal using an extended version of the Theory of Planned Behavior, including consumers’ moral attitude and sustainability consciousness as additional constructs. The results of structural equation models show that consumers’ high sustainability consciousness (6.16 on a scale from 1 to 7) does not influence their consumption intention of this product. Also, the two moderating variables involved in the model, i.e., the country of origin and price sensitivity, do not significantly affect consumers’ intentions. Since the analysis demonstrates that, for consumers, insect meal-fed fish conforms to their moral principles and a significant positive attitude toward this practice it could be argued that fish fed with insect meal can match the demand from consumers who feel responsible for their consumer behavior. Although the limited area of investigations and the high education of interviewed do not allow for generalizing of the results, this paper provides pivotal food for thought for companies, policymakers, and academics responding to previous research calls on understanding the role of some constructs of consumption intention and highlighting the levers on which to act to foster the consumption intention of insect-fed fish.

The article aims to analyse the worldview theories, which have become the basis for the concept of sustainable energy transformations. A number of ideas explaining the close connection between energy and environmental transformations, economic and technological progress of society and the state of the environment are considered. Energy transformations have become the research object due to the processes such as, on the one hand, the understanding of the future energy resources crisis, and on the other, the awareness of environmental problems that can lead to the real threat to humanity. The purpose of the article is to investigate philosophical concepts that lead to a new paradigm of satisfying human, and community needs in energy in the context of international and national economic strategies. The civilizational importance of the problem mentioned above and the urge to solve it at the global and local levels stimulates the curiosity of scientists and the activity of scientific and practical research in various fields. The object of scientific exploration is the economic and environmental effects of implementing renewable energy sources, the investment attractiveness of such projects; the innovative processes of renewable energy implementation and development are studied; environmental impact of various infrastructure elements is evaluated, in particular - in local systems; possibilities of the efficient architecture of the energy and ecological components of the urban environment, territorial communities, etc. are analysed. The concepts of environmental philosophy regarding the need for a harmonious combination of human and environmental needs are increasingly being taken into account in the development of state economic strategies and programs. The article states that an aspect of environmental consciousness change, building a new, socially responsible thinking of an economically and socially active part of society, and, ideally, most of humanity will remain of high importance for achieving sustainable development goals, in particular, sustainable modes of energy consumption.

PurposeConsumers are becoming increasingly socially conscious when making their purchasing decisions, which in turn is providing an incentive for firms to integrate social responsibility considerations into their product offerings. Explaining the various categories of socially responsible consumption (SRC) is therefore important. The purpose of this paper is to explain the various categories of socially responsible consumption.Design/methodology/approachGrounded in the theory of planned behavior (TPB), this paper surveyed a sample of 1,202 Hong Kong consumers.FindingsThe findings indicate that attitude towards the behavior, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control are all significant predictors of three categories of SRC (i.e. intention to purchase from firms based on their CSR performance, intention to practice recycling and intention to try to avoid or minimize their use of products based on their environmental impact). Intention to engage in SRC was then shown to be a significant predictor of SRC behavior.Research limitations/implicationsThis paper relied on only the single-factor test as a measure of socially desirable responding. Furthermore, while the quota sampling was designed for broad representativeness, it is difficult to verify if the well-controlled quota controls entirely removed the possibility of a biased selection of respondents within each cell.Practical implicationsRecommendations are made for public policy-makers and marketers to devise ways to shape consumer behavior to facilitate more responsible consumption.Originality/valuePrevious research relating to SRC has not explained the various categories of SRC and often failed to test the relationship between intention and behavior, representing a considerable gap in the literature. This paper applied the theory of planned behavior (TPB) to explain intention and behavior with regards to the various categories of SRC.

This study examines factors related to socially responsible consumption based on a sample of 636 Spanish consumers. The results indicate that socio-demographic factors such as sex, age, education level, and economic activity affect responsible consumption. In addition, it was found that in order to assess the antecedents of socially responsible consumption it is necessary to specify the type of consumer behavior (for example, purchasing specific products or initiatives against the purchase of certain products). It is found that perceived efficacy, affective commitment, and materialism explain different levels of variance in socially responsible consumption. Purchasing cause-related products is most influenced by affective commitment and perceived efficacy. Materialism affects purchasing motivated by firm behavior and the volume of consumption. The study finds that the referents to the responsibility that consumers adopt can be explained independently. In conclusion, with the aim of supporting a more sustainable society, the need for studies on anti-consumption behaviors as an instrument for sustainability is stressed.

This paper uses the experiential marketing concept to explain some of the motivations for socially responsible consumption. It is argued that practising responsible behaviour helps consumers to perceive five different types of experiential value: emotional, cognitive, sensory, relational and behavioural. A web-based survey on a panel of more than 1,000 North American respondents confirmed the presence of an average level of each experiential value type in responsible decisions. We also found evidence for gender and age differences in the perception of those experiential benefits. This study provides guidelines to better promote socially responsible consumption through enriching consumers' experiential motivations. The findings of this study also provide ideas for demographic-based targeting of responsible goods/services.

For many years, the free-market economy has promoted consumerism, which has been closely linked to rapid economic growth. Growing social exclusion, climate change, air pollution, rising landfill, and poverty are all linked to reckless and irresponsible consumption. These problems affect consumers' decisions, as consumers have become more critical of businesses, more reflective, and more responsible in their purchasing and consumption decisions. Based not only on corporate social responsibility but also on personal interests and the long-term benefits for the environment and society, consumers are determined to change their consumption behaviour towards a more socially responsible one. A questionnaire survey was carried out to find out how socially responsible consumption manifests itself in Lithuania and which stages of consumption are dominated by socially responsible consumption. Therefore, in this research, based on a devised theoretical framework and questionnaire, we attempt to reveal the concept of socially responsible consumption by identifying the stages of consumption as a process and assessing the expression of socially responsible consumption at different stages of consumption in Lithuania from the consumers' point of view.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the extent to which collaborative consumption (CC) enthusiasts are significantly more likely to engage into specific forms of socially responsible consumption (SRC), in contrast to regular consumers. Design/methodology/approach The authors administered an online questionnaire survey to a panel of 1,006 consumers. A cluster analysis combined with analyses of variance then determined the extent to which CC enthusiasts were more likely to engage in the focal SRC behaviors as opposed to others. Findings CC enthusiasts differ positively from other consumers concerning sustainable transportation, citizen consumption and composting but negatively from other consumers concerning recycling; they do not differ significantly with regard to environmental, animal protection and local consumption. Originality/value Conflating CC and SRC remains debatable. This study provides some preliminary evidence about the complex associations that exists between the two constructs.

Socially responsible consumption, that is the incorporation by individuals of social and environmental concerns in their consumption choices, is growing. Is this new tendency a consequence of a new way of considering consumption? The aim of this research is to verify the existence of different profiles of socially conscious consumers and to study their social representation of consumption. In order to meet these objectives, a study was conducted with 392 respondents. The free association technique was used to induce social representations while involvement in socially responsible consumption was measured with the François-Lecompte (2005) scale. Data analysis shows the existence of four groups of socially responsible consumers with different social representations of consumption.

Purpose – There is a need to promote socially responsible consumption which would accelerate the efforts of economic upliftment and sustainable development initiated by the government and corporates through corporate social responsibility initiatives. This study aims to explore the factors that contribute to socially responsible consumption across demographic factors. Design/methodology/approach – The socially responsible consumption behaviour (SRCB) scale developed by Antil and Bennet was used to gather responses on a five-point Likert scale along with information on demographic profile from the residents of Delhi National Capital Region. Findings – The factor analysis revealed a striking finding that personal contribution is the most important factor that governs socially responsible consumption, and this factor also emerges across demographic variables to have significant contribution for the consumption. Gender wise, there is no significant difference, while education bears an inverse relationship with SRCB. People in the middle-income group with lower incomes and younger in age are more likely to exhibit SRCB. Research limitations/implications – The implications for marketers is to use the results of this study in their promotion for targeting consumers by focusing on the joy/pride of personal contribution in being socially responsible while they fulfil their product purchase needs that could create a loyal segment of consumers who would buy such products and further spread a positive word of mouth to convert non-consumers into buyers, leading to sustainable economic development. Policymakers and the Government need to promote SRCB by subsidizing goods that are generated from such sources to enhance their usage. Younger Indians, in the early years of their career and people in middle-income groups, are promising customers with higher inclination to be socially responsible in their purchase behaviour. This paper presents a practical dimension of personal contribution that could be used to develop promotion strategies to motivate consumers towards socially responsible consumption. Practical implications – These incorporate usage of the results of this study to promote cause-related marketing, wherein a company donates a portion of each purchase made by its customers during a specific period to a socially responsible cause. Marketers can enhance the purchase of socially responsible products by creating awareness among their target consumers about the consequences of their purchase and their personal contribution in community development. Creating confidence among customers and goodwill by providing awareness of the contribution made by firms in the social development of the country will encourage customers to patronize products of such firms, as they would feel a sense of personal contribution in nation development by supporting buying from such firms. Social implications – The adoption of socially responsible consumption by the vast majority of population shall uplift the economically backward sections of society, thereby creating employment opportunities and incomes at the bottom of the pyramid, ultimately, leading to sustainable economic development and attainment of millennium development goals. Originality/value – This is a maiden attempt to gain an insight into the Indian SCRB. This can be a base for further studies in the area of socially responsible consumption which is relatively unexplored in the Indian context.

Tourism consumption has been steadily increasing in China, as has its impact on society, the economy, and the environment; thus, it is necessary to promote socially responsible consumption among tourists. Our primary objective was to develop a scale to measure tourists' socially responsible consumption intention in China. We identified 5 dimensions that we labeled as safeguarding rights and interests, moderating consumption, promotion of local residents' income, respecting local cultures, and conserving resources. Our scale has the same basic principles as more general socially responsible consumption: maximizing the positive impacts of tourism on the environment, economy, and society, and minimizing the negative impacts. The scale was designed mainly for use at the tourism destination, which is an unfamiliar environment for the tourist. Implications of the findings and suggestions for future research are discussed.

Purpose The purpose of the present study is intended to fill a research gap, by advancing a conceptual model which brings novel insights on the relationships between socially responsible consumption and consumer’s need for uniqueness. Design/methodology/approach Relying on a questionnaire-based survey for data collection, the proposed model was tested using the partial least squares (PLS) algorithm for structural equation modeling (SEM), which allows the assessment of the models containing both formative and reflective constructs. Findings The research found that 73.7 per cent of the variance in the consumer’s belief in the importance of personal power to make a difference through socially responsible choices is explained by the proposed model. Moreover, four of the five factors of socially responsible consumption fully mediate the positive effect of the consumer’s need for uniqueness on the importance attached to personal socially responsible choices in driving positive change. Research limitations/implications The study avails a phenomenological perspective by offering novel insights from a Romanian sample. The limitation associated with a country-centric vision is compensated through the contextual analysis and integration of a new point of reference in the overall framework of socially responsible consumption. Practical implications The evidence is indicative of new consumption insights and should be closely considered by companies. Originality/value The study draws upon a conceptual model integrating the relationships between socially responsible consumption and a psychological characteristic – the consumer’s need for uniqueness – which has been never tested as such before.

The main objective of this study is to characterize socially responsible consumption (SRC) through the lens of social welfare and degrowth proposals. The central research questions are (i) whether SRC can contribute to the realization of the foundations of a degrowth society and (ii) whether SRC fits into the critique of the economic growth paradigm. These are essential questions because SRC is often treated as an “invention” of affluent societies that seek more sophisticated methods of consumption (such as conspicuous, green, and ethical consumption) due to the prevailing cultural system. We challenge this viewpoint by drawing on studies from the intersection of social and environmental sciences. For this purpose, Talcott Parsons’ extended AGIL paradigm is introduced, referred to as AGIL+DE, as is our proposal of nature-based social welfare. Although this study is preliminary, its task is to develop new interpretative possibilities for the sociology of degrowth and innovative approaches to consumption in particular. The results suggest a change of approach in the study of the consumption phenomenon from the side of redefined social welfare, with a focus on moderate (SRC) and more radical (degrowth) solutions respecting the environmental impact. This change of approach to consumption requires rethinking and incorporating new empirical indicators.

The issue of socially responsible consumer behavior has been of great interest to researchers for years. It seems important to acquire knowledge about consumer behavior, especially among young people, who are a special group of consumers. In recent years, it is not only the purchasing power of young people that has been growing, but also the range of market choices they make. In this context, it is important to identify the determinants of consumer behavior to predict the directions of changes in the behavior of young people as consumers. One of the interesting research areas is determining the role of prayer, or more broadly, human spiritual development, in shaping consumer behavior. Some research suggests that there is a relationship between religion, or more precisely, religious practices and consumption. This work presents the most important definitions of a socially responsible consumer, presenting the most important aspects of this attitude. This work also presents previous research on the relationship between religiosity, prayer and consumer behavior. This research on the SRC attitude among young people was conducted using an online survey. The collected data were tested using the χ2 test of independence. Owing to the obtained results, it was possible to indicate the aspects of SRC in which the attitude to prayer is important.

The fight against the environmental and social problems faced by humanity requires a change in the consumption system. A new consumer is required, who takes into consideration that their acts are part of the cause of these problems, but also part of the solution to them. In order to design effective campaigns to promote socially responsible consumption, it is valuable to understand the profile of consumers who are most likely to act in this way. The objective of this work is to identify and describe segments of consumers according to their degree and type of socially responsible behavior. To do this, a survey of 415 Spanish consumers was conducted, using a multidimensional scale to measure socially responsible consumption. Four segments were identified: highly responsible, sensitive to origin, moderately responsible, and indifferent. Moreover, the individuals from these segments do not differ from each other due to their sociodemographic characteristics, but rather due to their attitudes towards these problems. Emotional engagement and the perception of personal effectiveness are the variables that differentiate the individuals in each segment, whereas the perception of personal gain is insignificant.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to find evidence of construct validity in a Mexican population for a socially responsible consumption (SRC) measurement scale originally proposed for Colombia. Design/methodology/approach Using a quantitative approach and a correlational scope, factorial invariance and differential item functioning analyses were performed on the SRC measurement scale based on data from 323 Colombian graduate students and 456 Mexican students. Findings The empirical evidence confirms that the factor structure of the SRC measurement scale applied in Colombia remains valid in the Mexican context. Research limitations/implications Limitations pertain to the attitudinal measurement scale and the non-representativeness of the chosen samples. Practical implications When identifying a structure for SRC, particularly considering the formulation of marketing strategies and business reputation, companies should consider the new criteria of buying consumption. Originality/value For the first time in Latin America, an SRC measurement scale is constructed, and its construct validity is evaluated for two countries: Mexico and Colombia. The authors thus provide empirical evidence for the hypothesis that SRC measurement is contingent on the expression of measurement considering the socioeconomic and cultural context in which the study is conducted.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to pursue the following two objectives. First, this study examines how social capital indicators (reciprocal norm and social network) cause ethical consumption behavior by conceptualizing it as value co-creation specific to socially responsible firms. Second, it aims to verify whether corporate trust, which is another core indicator of social capital, mediates between social capital indicators and ethical consumption behavior. Design/methodology/approach For study subjects, the author selected general public located in the city of Seoul. A total of 307 respondents were used for statistical analysis after discarding unusable questionnaires. For the purpose of judgment sampling, the author selected those respondents who had prior purchase experience of the products or services provided by socially responsible firms. Findings This study tested core elements of social capital (reciprocal norm, social network and corporate trust) as predictors of ethical consumption behavior. In particular, the study newly conceptualized and validated ethical consumption behavior as one encompassing the civic engagement behavior whose premise is well encapsulated by value co-creation principle. The results demonstrate that the social network and reciprocal norm significantly influence ethical consumption behavior directly as well as indirectly through corporate trust. Research limitations/implications The significance of this study may be that it adds to current literature on ethical consumption behavior by validating an empirical model of ethical consumption behavior from the perspective of consumer engagement paradigm. No previous studies of ethical consumption behavior empirically tested this model previously, only offering conceptual similarity between ethical consumption and consumer engagement. The study’s result may provide some insights as to the utility of value co-creation strategy for socially responsible firms as a useful way to promote ethical consumption behavior. Practical implications This study’s result may provide some useful insights as to how socially responsible firms can improve their performance by understanding what makes their customers voluntarily engage in favor of the firms to create shared values. In particular, the finding on the corporate trust mediating between bonding network and ethical consumption behavior sheds useful insights for the firms on how they should garner customer trust to trigger ethical consumption behavior. In this sense, socially responsible firms need to focus their resources on publicity or endorsements by highly respected celebrities designed to stress the firms’ trustworthiness and create favorable corporate image. Social implications The finding that reciprocal norm has a significant impact on ethical consumption behavior also provides strategic implications on how to enhance the effectiveness of corporate messages. That is, the socially responsible firms should implement some corporate strategies designed to raise authentic corporate image of the firms by hiring the socially disadvantaged and returning some portion of profit back to society. By doing this, the socially responsible firms can expect to instill some sense of reciprocity into their current as well as potential customers. Originality/value Despite this conceived linkage, no previous research has empirically approached ethical consumption from the perspective of civic engagement to examine whether ethical consumers voluntarily engage in firm-specific engagement behavior that fulfills their civic responsibility. Therefore, the present research embarks on a new approach to conceptualize ethical consumption as a construct that embodies civic engagement that is conceptually encapsulated by the principle of value co-creation.

Purpose. This project involved the formative and effectiveness evaluation of a program aiming to enable working, nondependent drinkers to consume alcohol in a healthy and socially responsible fashion. Design. A baseline survey (n=387) of employee needs and interests was followed by a formative evaluation testing accessibility, interest/resistance, and potential effectiveness. The formative evaluation used successive iterations of focus groups. The subsequent effectiveness evaluation (n=268) used a randomized pre-post design with three conditions: alcohol program, placebo (nutrition) program, or no program. Settings and Subjects. The program was implemented in a multi-branch, blue-collar, shiftworking organization (n=813) in four Quebec cities with many mobile workers. Intervention. The worksite alcohol program consisted of two, half-hour sessions delivered one week apart by a health professional during paid time. The program provided information on the social and personal costs of alcohol, on strategies for promoting socially responsible drinking, and for the prevention of negative consequences of intoxication for oneself and one's family and friends. Measures. Constructs measured using self-administered questionnaires were: alcohol knowledge, socially responsible attitudes, perceived self-efficacy for drinking management, and self-reported drinking behavior. Results. Despite the lack of interest in the topic (as found in the needs and interests survey), the program was effective in promoting socially responsible attitudes and reducing self-reported weekly consumption among participants. Some placebo effects were also present. Participants were not completely representative of all employees. Conclusion. Worksite alcohol health promotion programs can be effective especially when promoting socially responsible attitudes.

Social and environmental responsibility of apparel sector has been drawing rising attention of policymakers and researchers in recent years. One possible solution to curb the detrimental effects caused by the clothing industry is to invoke more responsible demand of its heavy users, such as young clothing customers. This study aims to examine a model of the determinants of environmentally and socially responsible clothing consumption of young adult customers in a developing economy. The study has been performed on a convenience sample of 439 respondents in Serbia, by means of structured online survey. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA), followed by two-step structural equation modeling procedure (SEM)—implying an examination of a measurement model, followed by testing of structural relationships—has been performed within data analysis. Results of the study indicate green consumption values as the most influential determinant of responsible apparel consumption, followed by conscious consumption and receptivity to green communication. Findings of the study contribute to the body of knowledge on responsible consumption and provide directions for practitioners and policymakers. Study limitations are noted and future research directions are provided.

The study of moral and ethical grounds for socially responsible behavior of representatives of business community and NGOs in Volgograd showed that the predominant importance in the implementation of socially responsible activities for the designated category of citizens have ethically colored individual motives. However, due to these motives, informal initiative cannot completely replace the institutionally organized (systemic) forms of social responsibility, the problem of the lack of which in the region is quite acute. Public dissemination of samples of socially responsible behavior in order to consolidate them in the mass consciousness and transform them into sustainable practices, a certain kind of propaganda (in the narrow sense of the word), will create a systemically organized, institutionalized environment for the implementation of socially responsible behavior. Business structures will be involved in the described environment in appropriate cases. In addition, the institutionalization of social responsibility, through standardization, will become a "resource-saving technology" for organizations implementing a variety of socially oriented programs, allowing to avoid spending extra effort on the "invention" of individual forms of implementation of socially responsible behavior, and distracting from the form, focus on the content. In the future, the institutionalization of social responsibility will help to create the basis for constructive dialogue between government, business and civil society on the basis of increasing self-reflexivity of each of the subjects of social interaction, understanding fully its active role in respect of social and economic change and responsibility for chosen strategy and its implications. Promotion of models of socially responsible behavior, based primarily on moral and ethical grounds, will contribute to the gradual development and improvement of public relations in the region. Media and social networks serve as channels and platforms for broadcasting samples of socially responsible behavior. The means of broadcasting include advertising, socially significant actions of various scales. The transformation of social responsibility into a trend will change the thinking of both the initiators of socially oriented activities in the face of the heads of organizations and its addressees.

In the era of innovations business operation on the principles of socially responsible marketing is becoming more and more important. Socially responsible marketing is the responsibility for business activities to society. In Ukraine, the use of socially responsible marketing is free choice. In foreign countries, socially responsible marketing is a self-regulating norm of doing business. Most foreign companies understand this type of marketing as being honest with the company's mission, values and business principles, compliance with the law, taking into account national and cultural values, as well as socio-political events; responsibility for product consumption, prohibition to associate product consumption with personal or professional success; compliance with codes of practice, rules and norms of behavior, providing product samples. The principles of behavior in the market of large well-known companies from the standpoint of socially responsible marketing are analyzed in this paper in detail. The analysis is carried out on the basis of marketing concepts – traditional, socio-ethical, social, environmental, as well as A. Maslov’s theory of needs, M. Friedman’s theory of corporate selfishness of. There is the need to focus modern domestic management on the business structures management system based on the concept of socially responsible marketing. Its creation will bring the process of business structures management to a qualitatively new level. As an element of strategic management, social responsibility implies obtaining economic, social and environmental performance in the context of corporate sustainability. The introduction of the principles of socially responsible marketing in business entities activities should result in the improvement of its reputation, increase of its image and recognition; should contribute to brand strengthening, new markets entry, increase of innovative activity, consumer confidence, share value and investment opportunities, attraction of new consumers. In addition, it should result in the growth of economic and social efficiency, competitiveness.

This paper investigates how two fundamental consumer characteristics, self-esteem (inner-self) and status seeking (outer-self), influence consumers’ purchasing behaviors of CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) products via two mediating effects: brand image and self-enhancement. In particular, we analyze these effects in two different CSR domains: environmental and social. By doing so, we are able to verify the underlying mechanisms of how different types of consumers respond to various CSR promotions. We propose a distinctive CSR consumption model incorporating both inner-self and outer-self components. We collected data from two countries, the US and China, using two commonly used online survey platforms: Amazon M-Turk and Loop Information Technology. Using structural equation modeling, our analysis in the environmental domain revealed that both inner-self and outer-self components play a significant role in consumers’ desire to purchase CSR products. Additionally, this process is mediated by the brand image of the firm and the tendency to enhance self-value. Interestingly, we found that in the social domain, self-enhancement mediated consumer characteristics and purchasing behavior of CSR product, whereas brand image did not. This indicates that environmental CSR activities increase brand value and its impact on purchase intention, while social CSR activities do not. Additionally, we found similar patterns for both US and Chinese consumers.

The purpose of the current paper is to present a theory-driven approach to developing Consciousness of Self, an individual value of the Social Change Model of Leadership, among emerging adults. Specifically, we discuss the development and execution of an intervention involving a large-group retreat with interactive activities and an emphasis on discussion. Grounded in theory, the intervention focused on identifying values, describing strengths, and practicing mindfulness and was evaluated based on the learning objectives. Program evaluation efforts revealed notable participant gains in all targeted objectives six months after the intervention. By providing a theoretical framework, in-depth description of the intervention, and evaluation strategy, the current paper encourages student affairs practitioners to utilize this curriculum to facilitate a Consciousness of Self intervention or create theoretically-grounded curriculum.

Since the Chinese government advocated a Harmonious Society, socially responsible consumption has increased and companies are responding to the trend. However, our understanding of the attitude and behaviour of 1.3 billion Chinese consumers on socially responsible consumption is almost blank. The primary objective of the present study is to develop a scale to measure socially responsible consumer behaviour (SRCB) in China's Taoist context. The secondary objective is to identify whether Chinese consumers share the same ecological and social concerns with their western counterparts as previous research suggests. This paper starts with a new definition of SRCB based on a literature review, then identifies the dimensions of SRCB in China on the basis of in-depth interviews and previous findings. Finally, a nine-factor, 34-item scale is developed through a widely used scale-building process. Differences with findings from the US and France are discussed and marketing implications are elaborated.

Background and Aims: With the need for social profits and benefits in social development, Thailand needs to train their future leaders to possess leadership value-based, participated, purposed, and non-authoritative to resolve emerging social issues like social inequity, environmental pollution, democratic development, etc.; consequently, socially responsible leadership is a sort of tool can solve the problems and make better for society in Thailand; the research would conduct the five objectives in the researcher to propose a suitable model for enhancing socially responsible leadership for undergraduate students in Thailand: 1) to find what levels of socially responsible leadership are for university students in Thailand; 2) to find what levels of involvement frequency in activities can advance socially responsible leadership for university students in Thailand; 3) to determine whether there is a significant difference between student demographics and socially responsible leadership for university students in Thailand; 4) to determine whether there is a significant relationship between leadership activities and socially responsible leadership for university students in Thailand; 5) to propose a suitable model for developing socially responsible leadership for university students in Thailand. Materials and Methods: The researcher conducted the three theories: the social change model of leadership, the four types of leadership activities that can enhance socially responsible leadership for undergraduate students, and demographics of students; the research quantitative analysis and modeling; the duration of collecting data was in 6 months; there were 600 valid data from five representative universities in Bangkok, Thailand; then, the researcher would conduct model validation by five scholars from the universities in Bangkok, Thailand and an evaluation model as the CIPP. Results: The research includes the following findings: 1) there were eight dimensions of socially responsible leadership in higher education context in Thailand: commitment, controversy with civility, congruence, change, consciousness of self, collaboration, common purpose, citizenship; 2) there were the four types of leadership activities can enhance socially responsible leadership in higher education in Thailand: game related activities, student organizational and interesting club activities, classroom activities and leadership workshops; 3) there were three types of students who need to enhance the leadership: males, aged less than 18, and first-year level; 4) the researcher found almost the four types of leadership activities can be associated with the eight dimensions of socially responsible leadership (p<.05) ; 5) according to the results of model validation, the five scholars approved the model has possibilities to enhance socially responsible leadership for undergraduates in Thailand by given scores (≥0.60). Conclusions: The model advises enhancing socially responsible leadership for undergraduates, males aged under 18, and first-year students in higher education in Thailand and higher education institutions in Thailand, which could lead to the four types of leadership activities appropriately. Furthermore, the model can provide practical paradigms for developing socially responsible leadership for related stakeholders concerned with student development in higher education in Thailand.

The Object of the Study. Quality of life of low-income population The Subject of the Study. Consumer basket of subsistence minimum as a social standard of quality of life of low-income population The Purpose of the Study. Development of the methodological basis for the formation of a socially acceptable consumer basket of the subsistence minimum. The Main Provisions of the Article. Currently, in Russia, the society faces large-scale tasks dictated by the taken course for breakthrough scientific, technological and socioeconomic development of the country, enshrined in the decree of the President of the Rossiyskaya Federatsiya No. 204 of 07.05.2018. The Designated national projects are aimed at qualitative changes in the living conditions of the population, the creation of conditions for increasing life expectancy, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, education of a harmoniously developed and socially responsible person, in particular. A large role is allotted to up-to date technology and highly qualified personnel, which implies the availability of human resources at the appropriate level. The achievement of these goals requires a new approach to the standards of quality of life of the population, which act as criteria and instruments of state social policy. The current methodology for determining the subsistence level is based on limited access to food, non-food products and services. Despite the fact that regular reviews of the consumer basket, carried out in accordance with Russian legislation, have brought some positive qualitative changes, the subsistence minimum can not act as a full-fledged social standard of quality of life. The transition from the normative approach to the definition of the consumer basket to the calculation approach, when only the minimum product set remained normative, has also had a negative impact since 2013. Today, we need a different, namely, socially acceptable current consumption standard, which would allow us to respond to the challenges of our time. The methodological basis of a socially acceptable consumer basket should be based on a normative approach to all its constituent sets – food, non-food goods and services. It should take into account domestic and foreign experience in the formation of regulatory consumer baskets for low-income population, the possibilities of the Russian consumer market of goods and services to meet the needs of the population, consumer behaviour and consumer expectations in a market economy.

With the development of a market economy, there are problems of balancing the interests of all participants in production, consumers, and society as a whole. This arouses interest in the concept of socially responsible marketing, which allows companies to focus on sustainable development and social values in solving business problems. The purpose of the article is to study the implementation of the concept of socially responsible marketing by business entities. The article considers the main aspects of the concept of socially responsible marketing, its importance for businesses. Related areas of research related to socially responsible marketing are identified based on bibliometric analysis of articles published in the Scopus database from 2010 to 2019 using VOSviewer software. It was found that the largest number of publications on the subject is available in the United States, Great Britain, Spain, and Australia. The basic principles of socially responsible marketing are grouped and its characteristic features are singled out. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of its basic tools. The tools of socially responsible marketing are broader than classical marketing and include marketing; consumer research; study of social and environmental consequences of production; consumption of manufactured goods and services. The authors noted that with traditional analytical methods in implementing the concept of socially responsible marketing, given the strategic direction of modern marketing, it is necessary to use multidimensional methods of analysis: SPACE-analysis, PEST-analysis, ETOM-analysis, QUEST-analysis, SNW-analysis, SWOT analysis, KPI analysis. The key features of the introduction of socially responsible marketing at the enterprises of Ukraine are analyzed. The paper substantiates that socially responsible marketing is a concept of marketing management, according to which the company's goal is to determine its own needs, needs and interests of target markets and meet them more effectively than competitors, ways to maintain or improve the welfare of both consumers and society in general. Keywords: marketing, principles of socially responsible marketing, socially responsible marketing, sustainable development.

Socially responsible investing (SRI) is fast catching the imagination of the ever increasing social consciousness of the investor community. Emergence of SRI can be traced back to the 1970s to few socially conscious investors who wanted to invest in bonds other than war, arms and ammunition and alcohol. Traditionally, SRI has focused on the economic social and governance (ESG) areas. Dieckmann (2007) who authored; Microfinance an emerging investment opportunity as a part of the Deutsche Bank Research, indicates that the SRI sector is witnessing the emergence of novae entrants like the microfinance (MF). The report also states that MF is scanning the environment for new funding opportunities by securitising MF opportunities and moving to the extent of going public. The scenario suggests microfinance to be robust, low risk profiled and growing investment avenue, which is fast emerging in the field of SRI. The purpose of the present article is to explore into the different dimensions of this emerging phenomenon and understand the emerging opportunities for banks in creating value using the synergy of SRI and MF.

The success of building sustainable consumption and production depends on creating a sufficient awareness and above all the involvement of all countries in the process of improving the environmental performance of products throughout their life cycle. Awareness and understanding of the social and economic dimension, influences building of sustainable consumption and production in the widest scale and makes it possible to encourage and motivate to socially responsible behavior. The article focuses on summarizing the basic attributes of sustainable consumption and production, as well as on the comparison of the progress of V4 countries in meeting the goal of "Responsible consumption and production" forming part of the Sustainable Development Agenda until 2030. We focus on indicators with quantitative target, where insufficient progress towards the EU target was achieved or there was a movement away from the target. The indicators are Primary energy consumption and Final energy consumption.

This article is a first step in examining reward-based crowdfunding in tourism as a socially responsible investment where individuals collaborate with projects that contribute to the development of their communities in economic, environmental, and/or sociocultural terms. Thus, the present study develops a model where social consciousness and perceived risk are postulated to influence individuals’ attitudes toward and intentions to participate in a project of crowdfunding. Based on a simulated crowdfunding project of “enotourism” that contributes to the development of a region in Spain, results reflect that the main drivers of individuals’ overall attitude toward crowdfunding are social consciousness and platform risk. Additionally, individuals’ intentions to fund the tourism project are influenced by their specific attitude toward the project and their overall attitude toward crowdfunding.

Globalization is a broad-spectrum concept in its content and scope. It is not a fashionable word only. There are many causes of globalization. Human desire for cognition and transformation of living conditions can be considered as the main causes. Globalization has its economic causes; it enables higher forms of linking the material and non-material values together. The influence of science and technology is also the cause of the evolution of globalization. Globalization also has communication, human and technical dimensions. Last but not least, globalization requires and enables social and ethical approaches as a decisive condition of social existence and human life. History shows that adequate attention is not paid to people. The two world wars in the last century and the wars waged in this century bear witness to that, often thanks to the so-called advanced societies. The important international organizations such as the UNO, the EU and NATO have been established to foster cooperation and peace relations between states and continents to build a responsible global society In recent years, there has been an effort to create socially responsible companies. The whole society as for the world, continents, countries, regions, municipalities, companies and families must be socially responsible. Management belongs to human consciousness and being. Skilful management is science and art; it is a basic condition for the survival of civilization. Science and technology, and its implications, have advantages and also considerable risks. They have a share in the safety or danger of a society. Our society is increasingly determined by environmental factors such as health, air, water, soil, food, raw materials, energy and transport.

The article explores the logic of the emergence and differentiation of the paradigm of socially responsible business. Both individual and organizational measurements of the problem are highlighted. The explicit and latent factors of influence on the problem situation on a global scale and possible options for its solution, taking into account the experience of developed countries, are considered. It is noted that an effective solution of social and environmental issues involves the application of joint efforts of representatives of the state, business, civil society, scientific community, leaders of public opinion, etc. The expediency of typology of socially responsible business is substantiated, in particular, the American, European and Asian models are highlighted. At the same time, it is noted that there is also the possibility of singling out other universal system-forming criteria for typologization of socially responsible business, namely external and internal. The relevance and heuristic potential of these approaches for the sustainable development of modern Ukrainian society is indicated. Taking into account socially differentiating factors, the generational dimension of this problem is briefly covered i.e., the perception of socially responsible business through the prism of mass consciousness, especially youth. It is noted that in a global society, such practices are especially favored by millennials, perhaps due to their somewhat romantic worldview and developed social marketing, which is quite common in countries with a high human development index. At the same time, the paradigm under study emphasizes successful practices in the application of event marketing as certain derivatives for the implementation of social marketing. Particular attention is paid to social, scientific, legislative practices on research and implementation in the daily life of environmental marketing, the content and characteristic derivatives of which in the developed world have become a "visit card" of modern socially responsible business. The situation regarding socially responsible business in Ukraine is analyzed. It is noted that both external and internal businesses of this kind are of the utmost importance in Ukrainian society. Such initiatives allow, on the one hand, partially solving the most pressing social, environmental, economic problems of national and global scale, to focus on them the attention of the public opinion, and on the other – to effectively capitalize a commercial brand, but only if its representatives will sincerely and systematically use the basic principles and values of socially responsible business.

Traditionally, the field of anticonsumption tends to be focused on consumers who collectively, in varying degrees, express their opposition by engaging in nonpurchase or responsible purchasing practices. In this article, the author is interested in anticonsumption starting at the end stage of consumption, when people become aware of and opposed to one of the corollaries of consumption—namely, wastage—which in turn influences their purchasing practices. A concept is introduced: anticonsumption consciousness is defined as consumers’ knowledge of wastage of objects in end stage of consumption practices. Visits to homes, combined with qualitative interviews, showed that anticonsumption consciousness manifests itself (1) not at all or very little, because of unawareness of wastage; (2) through experiences that have resulted in wastage; (3) through gradual acquisition of knowledge of oneself and one’s skills; and (4) through moral considerations and respect for past and future generations. This article also provides an explanatory factor for the gap between prosustainability attitudes and behavior that does not always match them. The implications for public policy are discussed.
