“…Several factors contribute to the formulation of consumers' perceptions of products, including consumer ethnocentrism (Ma et al ., 2020), word of mouth (Balan and Mathew, 2020), the sustainable product (Lago et al ., 2020), accumulated knowledge of the consumer (Wyer Jr and Kardes, 2020), product design and packaging (Gil‐Pérez et al ., 2020), and business reputation (Anagnostopoulou et al ., 2020). In this paper, product judgment will be linked to purchase readiness. H4 = Product judgment has a positive and significant impact on purchase readiness. …”

This study aims to investigate the impact of Turkish–Kurdish political relations on Kurdish consumers' behavior toward Turkish products. The following variables were included as predictors: consumer animosity, boycott participation, boycott motivation, and product judgment. An online survey was conducted to collect the data; it attracted 1,100 participants. Seven hypotheses were tested using descriptive statistics, correlation coefficients, and structural equation modeling. The study findings show that consumer animosity has a significant impact on boycott participation, motivation, and product judgment. Purchase readiness is significantly affected by product judgment and boycott participation. Purchase aversion is significantly impacted by boycott participation and boycott motivation. This study gives insight into a conflict that has not been previously covered; to the best of our knowledge, it is the first to examine the consumers' perspective on the on the Turkish–Kurdish conflict.

“…On a scale from 1 to 11, the results reveal that with every one unit increase in the relative importance that consumers give to the quality score associated with seasonal food, they are 0.85 times less likely to consume jam enriched with IP. Food product quality includes aspects such as safety, healthiness, taste, appearance, and popularity [ 43 , 47 , 48 ]. European consumers generally have negative expectations with respect to the taste of edible insects [ 35 ].…”

Edible insects are being considered as a sustainable source of protein and are continuously appearing in markets in the West. The impact of COVID-19 on the willingness to consume (WTC) two products enriched with insect ingredients, jam and yogurt, was analyzed. A semistructured questionnaire was applied using the Qualtrics© consumer panel. Data was collected from 799 and 481 consumers before and during the COVID-19 lockdown in Catalonia (Spain), respectively. The multinomial logit (MNL) model was used to analyze the determinant factors affecting consumers’ WTC insect-based products and the impact of COVID-19 on such heterogeneity. Results showed that the outbreak of COVID-19 caused a significant decrease in the WTC. Findings also revealed that consumers who contracted the COVID-19, strictly followed the regulations during the confinement, and are well informed about symptoms were more likely to reject the consumption of the insect-based products. Both before and during the lockdown, results showed that young and employed consumers, with low-income level, who give importance to the environmental attribute in food are prone to consume insect-based food products. The COVID-19 outbreak had a homogenizing impact on consumers’ WTC with respect to the gender variable. Consumers’ affirmation towards strict food safety standards of the insect-based products should be remarked.

“…According to the authors, the positive views of young consumers towards environmental protection are not always reflected in their actions [121]. Nevertheless, young consumers, due to information and knowledge about sustainability, try to be more environmentally conscious [122]. Therefore, knowledge can be a factor in determining the purchasing behaviour of young people.…”

The Impact of Ecological Knowledge on Young Consumers’ Attitudes and Behaviours towards the Food Market

2021

The subject literature around the world puts a strong emphasis on the discrepancy between the positive attitude towards the idea of sustainability and consumer behaviour. These issues are the subject matter of this paper, which aims at both the identification and evaluation of selected aspects of knowledge, attitudes and eco-friendly behaviour of consumers connected with their choice of foods. The authors made an attempt of answering the question, to what extent do the level of knowledge and the declared eco-friendly attitudes have an impact on specific purchasing decisions. In the empirical observations, the conceptual model of the effects of the environment (knowledge, attitude, behaviour) on the customers' ecological awareness was used. The analysis conducted on the basis of this model indicated that stimulating the demand for ecological products is implemented mainly by the processes of raising awareness, which leads to expanding the consumers’ knowledge concerning ecological farming and eco-friendly foods. In such a way the consumer awareness is built, especially by educational campaigns and promoting/endorsing the ecological foods targeted at young consumers.
