“…This means that individuals with higher religiosity levels tend to have more control over their behaviors. This finding is in line with other studies that claim that individuals with higher religiosity tend to believe they have more power and control over the situations they face (Jackson and Bergeman, 2011; Fiori et al , 2006; Joiner and Bergeman, 2018). Subjective norms was found to be the only variable that represented a significant effect on luxury purchase intention, while contrary to the literature, attitudes and perceived behavioral control were positive but insignificant predictors for the luxury purchase intention.…”

“…These religious beliefs affect one's perceived control beliefs (Jackson and Bergeman, 2011). Perceived behavioral control has been found to be affected by individual's religious orientation; religious individuals are believed to have more perceived control than less religious individuals (Fiori et al, 2006;Jackson and Bergeman, 2011;Joiner and Bergeman, 2018). A possible explanation is that individuals with higher religiosity tend to believe they have more power and control regarding their behavior toward different situations (Jackson and Bergeman, 2011).…”

Purpose The purpose of this study is to describe the effect of religiosity on luxury and counterfeit purchase intentions and to determine the role of consumer ethics in the context of counterfeit purchase intention. The conceptual framework is based on Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). In the context of counterfeit consumption, religiosity is proposed to be an added component to the theory, while ethical consumption is proposed to mediate the relationship between religiosity and counterfeit purchase intention. In the context of luxury consumption, religiosity is proposed to precede TPB components which then affect luxury purchase intention. Design/methodology/approach This is a descriptive study; this study uses a mixed-methods approach, where eight semi-structured in-depth interviews and 500 surveys were conducted and distributed to Egyptian luxury consumers. Findings The major results suggest that religiosity and ethical consumption negatively affect counterfeit purchase intention as proposed. The results also reveal that religiosity did not necessitate a negative attitude toward luxury consumption. Religiosity was found to have a positive effect on attitudes, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control. Only subjective norms had significant effect on luxury purchase intention in the research context. Originality/value This paper contributes to the TPB by adding religiosity to the theory components as well as integrating the theory of planned behavior with Consumer’s Ethics theory in the context of counterfeit consumption. The study is an attempt to compare between luxury and counterfeit purchase intention while considering the role of individual’s religiosity in these purchases.
