“…The main factors listed in prior research are health and the environment (Hansen et al, 2018) and consumer values (Yadav, 2016). Previous literature has also examined a limited set of studies regarding LOHAS consumption, mainly on slow fashion (Sung and Woo, 2019), sustainable consumption (Matharu et al, 2020) and tourism (Seo canac, 2019). Yet, there is scant research in examining the psychological factors which could impact the trust or purchase intentions of consumers for organic food (Park-Poaps, 2015).…”

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to examine the impact of scarcity and the Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability (LOHAS) consumption tendency on the purchase intention of organic foods. The study used the protection motivation theory and the stimulus-organism-response theory to understand the impact of comparatively new variables like “perceived scarcity” and “perceived consumer effectiveness” (PCE) on the consumer's organic food purchase intentions.Design/methodology/approachThe study is using structural equation modeling with 402 organic food consumers. The participants are regular consumers who bought organic food from specialized shops and supermarkets in the previous few months. The data has been collected at organic food specialized shops and supermarkets that sell organic foods.FindingsThe results showed that LOHAS consumption tendency (LCT), scarcity and PCE positively affect attitude. Similarly, LCT and PCE direct affect trust. Scarcity and PCE directly positive impact on purchase intention of organic food products. Interestingly, LCT had no direct impact on the purchase intention of the product. Trust and attitude were found to be significant mediators impacting purchase intention.Originality/valueThe study contributes to the past theoretical literature on LOHAS consumption by analyzing new constructs like scarcity and PCE in the context of organic food consumption. These findings will be crucial for marketers planning to launch organic products in new markets.

This paper aims to identify the importance of organizing green events from the perspective of different stakeholders, as well as possible solutions that event organizers can use to make their events greener. The large number of people who gather, the short duration, and the significant impact they have on the environment in which they are held, have led to the fact that events are often considered the "antithesis of sustainability". This paper seeks to review the literature to determine the relationship between events and sustainability, and then, on the example of the Belgrade Beer Fest, to identify ways that, even events that are not primarily organized for this reason, can contribute to improving the sustainability of the destination.
