Item type:Publication, Influence of Social Media on Consumers' Green Purchase Intention of Air Conditioners: The Mediating Role of Behavioral Attitude(2025-01-01) ;Zheng, Zhong; This study explores the factors influencing green purchase intentions among Chinese consumers in the context of air conditioners, focusing on the roles of behavioral attitudes and social media. The research examines three key hypotheses: the relationship between favorable behavioral attitudes and green purchase intentions, the influence of social media on shaping these attitudes, and the mediating role of social media in enhancing green purchase intentions. The findings support all three hypotheses, demonstrating a significant positive relationship between behavioral attitudes and green purchase intentions, a strong influence of social media on shaping favorable attitudes, and the mediating effect of social media in amplifying these attitudes' impact on purchase intentions. These results underscore the importance of leveraging social media for effective marketing strategies and fostering positive behavioral attitudes to promote environmentally friendly products. The study offers practical implications for businesses and policymakers aiming to enhance consumer engagement and drive green purchases. Future research directions include longitudinal studies, cross-cultural comparisons, and investigations into emerging technologies' impact on consumer behavior. This research contributes to the growing body of knowledge on digital consumer behavior and provides actionable insights for optimizing marketing strategies in the digital age. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Exploring the Impact of Digital Platform on Energy-Efficient Consumption Behavior: A Multi-Group Analysis of Air Conditioning Purchase in China Using the Extended TPB Model(2025-06-01) ;Zheng, Zhong; Energy-efficient consumption has become a strategic priority to mitigate global climate change and enhance national energy security. While social media has reshaped online consumption behavior, the mechanisms through which these digital platforms influence energy-efficient purchasing remain underexplored. This study extends the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) by integrating price perception variables and applies multi-group structural equation modeling to examine how social media shapes Chinese consumers’ intentions to purchase energy-efficient air conditioning. The results show that (1) social media exposure strengthens energy-efficient purchasing intentions indirectly via behavioral attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioral control; (2) price perception is negatively associated with purchase intention; and (3) these effects vary by age cohort, gender, and income—Generation Z and female consumers are more susceptible to social media influence, while low-income groups exhibit heightened price sensitivity. These findings advance TPB theory and offer guidance for digital platform policies aimed at promoting energy-efficient consumption.
