The study investigated the intention of working women to buy green cosmetic products. In addition, it also analyzes the relationship between motivational factors, purchase preferences, and tendency towards health consciousness on the purchase intention of green cosmetic products. A model was developed to understand the effect of independent variables on the dependent variable. Motivational factors, purchase preferences, and tendency towards health consciousness were considered as independent variables and purchase intention of green cosmetic products as the dependent variable. The survey was conducted using an online questionnaire and collected data from 119 working women. Multiple linear regression in SPSS software was used to analyze the collected data. The results show that motivational factors have no significant effect on the purchase intention of green cosmetics. Meanwhile, purchase preferences and tendency towards health consciousness significantly affect purchase intention of green cosmetics. This study focuses on a group of working women. Future research may involve demographic variables, spending on buying green products, and lifestyle variables. Further research can also use in-depth interviews and focus group discussions on finding out more details regarding the use of green products. The green product is also closely related to the high-involvement product. It becomes interesting to involve it in further research.

Against the backdrop that universities are required to generate and disseminate relevant and applicable knowledge for the general good, and with the understanding that social media can be an effective vehicle for such knowledge sharing practices, this study explored the use of social media for knowledge sharing by academics at a university college in Ghana. The study thus examined how instructors use social media for sharing academic knowledge, the factors that promote such knowledge sharing practices, and the barriers to effective knowledge sharing in the academic environment. 47 instructors participated by completing an online questionnaire, whilst 7 participated in focus group discussions. Findings reveal a regular, though not daily, use of social media platforms for academic knowledge sharing. Personal, technological and institutional factors were determined to be contributing in fostering as well as hindering such activities. Implications of these findings as well as suggestions for future research are accordingly discussed.

 This paper aims to study a set of motives favoring purchase behavior while testing the mediating role of purchase intention within the context of green consumption. The literature review enabled us to distinguish mostly the following motives: health consciousness, environmental concern and the consumer’s social influence. The moderating roles of perceived consumer effectiveness and price sensitivity are also examined. The findings of a quantitative study involving 480 Tunisian consumers of green products indicate that protecting their health, supporting their environment and expressing their social affiliation are important motives of the consumers’ intention to buy green products. The intensity of these relationships is significantly moderated by the ‘consumer perceived effectiveness’. Thus, for the Tunisian consumer, a purchase intention is not consistent with a purchase behavior. It is indeed affected, in particular, by price sensitivity. The present study provides managerial insights for green marketers to operate in fast growing emerging markets.

The sample size was 161 students from the university. The hypotheses were tested using Smart PLS 3 and the results for the inner and outer model were presented in the study. The results showed 10 significant hypotheses however it was limited to the sample of university students because it is supposed that university student is more focused towards their health as well as environment.

In Globalized level, policy makers, marketers and general public also pronounce environmental protection and its benefits. In line with above arguments, green marketing was selected as theme to ground the research. In the green marketing paradigm, green consumerism was selected as the main theme. In line with above facts, the integrated conceptual model was developed to predict the purchase intention and behavior towards green products. Altogether, seven antecedents as environmental attitude, environmental concern, perceived consumer effectiveness, health consciousness, social influence, media influence and perceived government initiatives were incorporated in to the proposed model. Therefore, the proposed model is considered as the comprehensive one to predict the intention towards green products. Further, this model can be applied in globalized level among consumers to predict the purchase intention and behavior towards green products. </p><p> </p>

People around the world realize that environmental concerns are one of the urgent problems facing every community. Green marketing practice is now expanding to the Asian region where environmental threats are disturbing governments and citizens. Environmental management and protection take a prominent place on the globe, where environmental pollution already harms the bio – diversity. The lack of adequate environmental legislation, weak policy decisions together worsened the situation. Therefore, immediate action is needed to protect the nation's environmental resources for the benefit of current and future generations. Since consumption is unavoidable for human existence, the green product is regarded as a means of reducing the environmental effects of human consumption. The introduction of green products in the consumer market has offered a better direction of consumption by decreasing the negative environmental effects of consumer products. Therefore green marketing was chosen as the theme to underpin the study. Green consumerism was chosen as the central theme in the green marketing paradigm. As a result, the integrated conceptual model was constructed to predict purchase intention and behavior towards green products. Altogether, eight antecedents as environmental attitude, environmental knowledge and awareness, perceived consumer behavior, habit, subjective norms, price, brand image, marketing information were incorporated in to the proposed model. Thus, the suggested model is regarded as the extensive model to predict intention towards green products. Furthermore, this model can indeed be introduced among customers at a global level to assess purchase intention and behavior towards green products.

This study investigated the factors influencing consumers' purchase intention from online stores in Qatar. Moreover, it tried to verify if payment method moderates the relationships concerning the suggested factors and online purchase intention. This research extended the theory of reasoned behavior (TRA) with trust as a predictor and payment method as a moderator. A total of 283 valid responses were collected from Qatari residents through an online questionnaire and analyzed the data to test the research hypotheses. The findings of this research indicated that all proposed factors significantly influenced online purchase intention. Results also indicated that there is no moderation effect of payment method on the proposed hypotheses. Further investigations revealed that all proposed factors significantly affect the online purchase intention for customers who prefer to use credit card payment. Managerial implications and recommendations were presented in addition to the study limitations and suggestions for future research.
