Consumer behavior is influenced by intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. Besides coming from an individual, it is also influenced by social environment. Understanding consumer behavior motivated by psychological needs from consumer-self is necessitated, because motivation coming from within ‘self’ can instigate consumer’s well being. It can be viewed from consumer intention to perform a certain behavior. Based on Self-Determination Theory (SDT) and Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), this research attempts to understand the role of self-determination and social cognition in consumer behavior when they buy fashion products from online retailers. This research was conducted on 240 internet users in Indonesia. The data were obtained from questionnaires, analyzed using variance-based SEM, and processed using PLS.Research findings show that TPB variables, such as attitude and behavioral control and self determination motivation as SDT variables influence purchase intention. However, subjective norms do not influence purchase intention on fashion products in online retailers.

This study determined the factors that influenced purchase intention of young consumers in the BPO industry specifically on organic local food. The participants were 18-30 years old in selected cities in the National Capital Region (NCR). The study applied the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) and Self-Determination Theory (SDT) as its theoretical framework wherein the researcher extended the TPB by adding (1) value for money and willingness to pay (VM-WP); and (2) consciousness and environmental knowledge (CEK). Purposive sampling method was used in the selection of 5 participants for the in-depth interview which was based on the total sample size of 725 who responded on the online survey using stratified random sampling. Quantitative data were analyzed using PLS-SEM model and Spearman correlation analysis in support of the qualitative data. The findings of the study showed that young consumers in the BPO industry considered purchase intention as an important factor towards green purchasing.
