“…Regarding sustainability and the environment, the TPB has been successfully applied in identifying the factors that determine sustainable behaviour in various fields: (a) Reducing contamination and natural resource conservation, such as the intentions to adopt a search engine that promotes sustainable water management [32], using biodiesel by car drivers [33] reducing fine particulate matter emissions [34] and willingness to pay for air quality improvement [35]; (b) recycling and reusing, such as people's intention to separate waste at home [36], reducing waste [37], recycling plastic waste [38], paper waste [39], electrical and electronic waste [40] and industry intentions to recycle food waste [41]; (c) purchasing intention of green products [42], traceable products [43], choosing a sustainable restaurant [15] and staying in green hotels [44].…”

“…También se ha añadido como variable explicativa el conocimiento del producto, resultando ser en muchos casos un poderoso predictor de las intenciones (Lane y Potter, 2007). Aún más, en el análisis de productos novedosos, por ejemplo, el conocimiento del mismo es el único elemento del que disponen los consumidores para diferenciar sus atributos (Gracia et al, 2018). Además, los modelos también suelen incorporar predictores adicionales de intención que reflejan las características socio demográficas de los individuos (Rise et al, 2010).…”
