“…The results of the study did not show a significant impact of age on consumer empowerment, contrary to several research findings that suggested age played a significant role in consumer empowerment [4,45,52]. Similarly, gender did not have a substantial effect on consumer empowerment, contradicting other studies that indicated gender was a significant factor in empowerment [21,34].…”

“…Previous research has indicated that factors like greater skills, assertiveness, and knowledge of one's rights can increase consumer empowerment [11]. Furthermore, studies have shown that specific socio-demographic characteristics, such as geographical location [4], level of education [19,20], age [45], and gender [21,22], can also influence consumer empowerment. Additionally, research by Simanjuntak and Tesiana suggests that socio-demographic characteristics like education and income can affect the consumer empowerment index [18].…”

This study aims to examine how sociodemographic characteristics contribute to consumer empowerment in Indonesia. Systematic random sampling was used to pick 4200 respondents from 28 of the 34 provinces in the nation. The study examined the connections between sociodemographic traits such as income, location, age, gender, work status, and educational attainment and consumer empowerment. In-person interviews were conducted using structured questionnaires, and multiple linear regression and independent t-tests were utilized for statistical analysis. The overall consumer empowerment index for Indonesia was 32.06, according to the data, with rural areas having a lower rating than metropolitan areas. Significant differences were also seen between the two locations in terms of complaint behavior and legal and consumer protection organization expertise. The highest index, however, was seen in preferences for local products. According to the study, consumer empowerment was significantly impacted by just three of the six independent factors (income, education level, and geographic region). Consumer empowerment indexes were higher among respondents who lived in metropolitan areas and had more incomes and educational attainment. These results highlight the necessity for consumers to take an active role in their empowerment to guarantee that their obligations and rights are fulfilled.

“…Which may be young or old, woman, man or child, hardworking or lazy, white or black, religious or non-religious, educated or not, but he is still human. Various efforts to empower and protect consumers have been made by the government and various non-governmental consumer protection organizations (Simanjuntak & Umiyati, 2020). So, a refugee is also a human being and is no different from us, only in that he cannot live freely in his homeland, due to military conflicts and so on.…”
