Although, sustainable consumption is gaining in relevance for consumers and retailers in Germany, pro-social consumption is still often neglected. Therefore, this study investigates factors influencing the purchase intention of German flower buyers in relation to Fairtrade-cut roses based on an online survey of 1,201 flower buyers in retail shops in 2017. As a basic theoretical framework, the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) was utilized and extended with two additional constructs. The addition of emotions and perceived consumer effectiveness reveals a strong explanatory power of the model proposed. Data analysis via partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) suggests that emotions and subjective norm are the two most influential determinants of intention to purchase Fairtrade roses. However, emotions also significantly influence all determinants of behavioral intention introduced to the extended model. The findings of this study can be used to fine-tune marketing and communication activities related to pro-social and Fairtrade products.

Gibt es robuste Phloxe? Ergebnisse der aktuellen Sichtung. Wie lassen sich Phloxe mit Begleitern unter Aspekten des Klimawandels verwenden? (2022) Grünberger Staudentage 2022 .
Socially responsible investment (SRI) is an investment strategy which complies with ethical, social, environmental or corporate governance criteria. Investments in renewable energies are commonly regarded as complying with SRI principles. This study aims to deepen the understanding of individuals' intentions to invest in wind energy. As an underlying framework the Theory of Planned Behavior's constructs attitude, subjective norm and perceived behavioral control were used and statistically tested with an online-survey of 592 participants in 2014. Further, this theory was extended by adding the constructs consumption profile and investor profile to the framework. With the inclusion of the two additional constructs the theoretical model turns to be very suitable as it doubled the share of explained variance of behavioral intention from 25% to 50% compared to the Theory of Planned Behavior. The analysis further shows that subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, consumption profile and investor experience have statistically significant influence on investment intentions in wind energy. However, attitudes towards wind energy investments are not a significant predictor of investment intentions. We conclude that, apart from the scientific implications of our results, our findings have practical applications for the conceptual design of wind energy investments.
