“…Rombach and others found that the moral awareness of German cut-flower consumers' concern about labor and the environment affected their attention to fair trade as an attribute of cut flowers, which further affected their purchasing behavior [34]. Graham-Rowe [35] and Ju [36] explored the psychological obstacles of British and South Korean consumers to the adoption of electric vehicles, respectively. Kautish and others emphasized to pay attention to the influence of consumers' values and inner consciousness on their external reactions [37].…”

Research on the Connotation and Dimension of Consumers’ Quantified-Self Consciousness

et al. 2022

Quantified-self practice has penetrated into people’s daily life. Academic circles have begun to study it, but at present, scholars have not raised quantified-self practice to the level of consciousness. In order to explore the structural connotation of quantified-self consciousness and then provide management reference for enterprises offering quantified-self services, this study conducted in-depth interviews with self-trackers with the method of grounded theory. The conceptual model of quantified-self consciousness is formed through step-by-step coding, and the theoretical saturation is tested by reserving original sentences and crawling relevant online comments. The model shows that quantified-self consciousness can be divided into three dimensions: individual thinking, social projection, and data sensitivity.

“…With the concern for environmental conservation in the face of global warming and other climate change effects, and the increasing health consciousness in the aftermath of COVID-19 dominating the current global debate, governments and businesses alike are responding with environmental conservation strategies. The automobile industry, for instance, is geared towards the production of electric cars alongside internal combustion cars whose engines are powered by fossil fuels (Ju et al, 2021). Achtnicht (2012) as well as Gallagher and Muehlegger (2011) also note that car manufacturers are now producing cars that use less fuel and emit less emissions per mile to react to the call for environmental conservation.…”

Eco-cars have been promoted as a viable solution to global environmental concerns and energy crises. This motivated the study to focus on establishing the effect of the motorists’ attitudes and culture orientations on their intention to adopt Eco-cars. A total of 384 motorists from Kampala City were taken using a two-stage sampling design including stratification between public and private motorists and convenience sampling within the strata. Primary data was collected using a structured questionnaire that was both self and interviewer administered. Data were analysed using correlation and regression analyses. The study revealed that motorists with a positive attitude especially regarding environmental conservation, and the possibility of easy access to facilitating conditions, like charging stations and their performance, were more ready to adopt Eco-cars. The motorists possessing a collectivist culture were more likely to adopt Eco-cars. Furthermore, the influence on adopting Eco-cars because of the motorist’s attitudes was found to be stronger among those with a collectivistic culture. In essence, motorists who felt accountable for their country’s agenda of environmental conservation and believed that their actions mattered regarding the concerns of the majority, were most likely to adopt Eco-cars. As such, both public and private players in the motor industry need to send out messages focusing on the communal benefits of driving an eco-car

“…The desire for environmentally friendly vehicles to run on alternate fuels is increasing significantly. As a result, the automobile industry is rapidly transitioning to something that is more environmentally sustainable, and the world's main automobile makers, as well as many countries, are attempting to gain a competitive advantage in electric vehicles and innovative technology [11]. The increased sales trends for EVs in the foreseeable future are possible.…”

Toward Net-Zero: The Barrier Analysis of Electric Vehicle Adoption and Transition Using ANP and DEMATEL

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Global greenhouse gas emissions must be reduced to achieve net-zero carbon emissions. One of the solutions for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions is the adoption and transition from conventional vehicles to electrical vehicles (EVs). Previously, most research on EVs have been from a consumer adoption perspective, few of them are from industry transition and consumer adoption perspectives simultaneously. This also highlights the importance of SDG 12 (responsible for consumption and production). Additionally, the analyses were mostly obtained using one methodology and demonstrated only by weighting without relationships among factors. To consider the problem of adoption and transition, a systematic method should be developed. Therefore, this study intends to identify, prioritize, and display the relationship between EV adoption barriers from an automotive industry perspective using an analytic network process (ANP) and the decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) method. The research results show two contributions: First, the identified and prioritized barriers that automakers encounter in EV transition also explored the interrelationships among these barriers. Second, a model comparison of two multicriteria decision-making approaches was conducted to prioritize and identify the interlinkages among EV uptake barriers.
