“…Few studies examined the moderating role of FC. For instance, FC was tested as a moderator in the adoption of safe motherhood (Rai & Biswas, 2022). In Saudi Arabia, FC can facilitate the usage of technology and an encouraging factor for such usage.…”

The Internet of Things (IoT) is an innovative technology that has the potential to help public hospitals better meet the demands of hospitalization. However, only a small portion of the research looked at patients' behavioural intentions (BI) to utilise IoT healthcare devices (IoTHD). This study intends to investigate the variables that influence the BI's use of IoTHD. The research suggests that the BI may be explained by factors of UTATU. The patients of public hospitals make up the population. A questionnaire was used to obtain the data using convenience sampling. Participants in this research totalled 161. Smart Partial Least Square results demonstrated that social influence (SI) has an impact on performance expectancy (PE). Technological complexity (TC) and playfulness (PP) had an impact on effort expectancy (EE). Additionally, the BI to adopt IoTHD was impacted by PE, EE, perceived security (PS), and perceived privacy (PV). The impact of PE and EE on BI to use IoTHD was not moderated by the facilitating conditions (FC). In order to improve patients' perceptions of IoTHD usage in public health organisations, simple process and more positive word of mouth is required.

“…Social marketing approaches that incorporated the SCT has mostly focussed on parental experiences (Maas et al , 2022; Rai and Biswas, 2022); health behaviour and or food consumption (Harris et al , 2022; McDivitt et al , 2011; Ryan et al , 2022); and more recently, technology related subjects (Saleme et al , 2020). When the SCT has been incorporated regarding pro-environmental behaviours, it has been in conjunction with other theories, such as goal-framing theory (Rohenkohl et al , 2023).…”

Purpose This paper presents a unique conceptual model that promotes behaviour change with the goal of creating a more sustainable conscious society. It aims to provide social marketers with insight on how to influence consumers' buying behaviour, which is often guided by their misperception of what is a good Quality of Life (QoL). Design/methodology/approach By means of a comprehensive, analytical review of relevant literature, this paper took a conceptual approach that included the thematic analysis of data sources such as accredited journal articles, books and other credible published materials. Findings Against the backdrop of South Africa's socio-economic conditions, this model emphasises the crucial role of individual's social and personal environment in shaping behaviour. The role of social marketers is to capitilise on consumers immediate environment to persuade them to consume more sustainably. It further gives way to the long-term, positive consequences of behaviour change on consumer's Quality of Life. The basic premise underlying the conceptual model is eudaimonia, the long-term subjective well-being of consumers, as a result conscientious consumption practices. The authors integrate Bandura's Social Cognitive Theory (1986) and Christie's Nested model of Quality of Life (2018) and presents the Social Cognitive Model of Quality of Life. Research limitations/implications Such an integrative conceptual model can be used to justify policy implications, social marketing strategies and behavioural change for the individual consumer to promote their own subjective QoL while addressing and perhaps mediating the broader social and environmental concerns. However, the application of this concept within an emerging economy, remains to be a challenge, as the awareness around sustainable consumption is still in its infant stage. Originality/value With the rise of globalisation, consumers in emerging economies aspire to portray wealth through the acquisition of materialistic possessions. This is even though the majority live in poverty and cannot sustain a lifestyle that is driven by conspicuous consumption. As a result, social marketers have a significant responsibility to inRuence consumers buying behaviour towards sustainable consumption. This paper presents a model that guides social marketers on how they can encourage pro-environmental behaviour and create a more sustainably conscious society.

“…Triandis (1979) also suggested that external conditions impact behaviour. Researchers have applied TIB to understand different behaviours, including safe motherhood (Rai & Biswas, 2022), food waste (Jabeen et al, 2023), mobility (Mifsud et al, 2019) and water use (Ibrahim et al, 2018).…”

The preference structure of consumers remains a perplexing issue for sharing platforms. This study aims to broaden the understanding of shared consumption (SC) adoption. It employed the theory of interpersonal behaviour (TIB) and the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) to propose a conceptual model integrating cognitive, affective and normative beliefs to explain sharing intention. A cross‐sectional survey was conducted using a self‐administered questionnaire to gather responses. Using partial least square structural equation modelling (PLS‐SEM), the assessment of 298 valid responses revealed that economic incentives, normative beliefs, environmental concerns and perceived moral norms are significant predictors of sharing intention. The results of this study offer insights into the fact that consumers are cognizant of the sustainability concern and are ready to amend their consumption patterns driven by moral norms. Additionally, non‐cognitive factors like freedom from ownership hassles and availability uncertainty influence sharing intention. The study's theoretical contributions include extending the application of TIB to shared consumption behaviour and integrating non‐cognitive factors with TPB factors to understand shared consumption intention better. Accordingly, the study offers guidance to marketers for promoting shared consumption.
