“…Studies have also the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA), Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) or Value-Belief-Norm models to explain sustainable consumption behavior. These streams of research have tested the effects of several new constructs like attitude towards sustainability, green lifestyle, perceived consumer effectiveness, consumer awareness, consumer environmentalism, perceived behavioral control, and consumer value orientations on sustainable purchase behaviors (Grinstein and Nisan, 2009;Kalamas, Cleveland, and Laroche, 2014;Trudel and Cotte, 2009;White and Simpson, 2013).…”

This paper explores the factors that influence and the barriers that hinder consumers' sustainable consumption behavior using consumer value approach. Thirty two indepth interviews were conducted which captured their true experiences, thoughts and feelings in context of their purchase and consumption of sustainable brands. Thematic analysis of the data using NVivo10 qualitative software indicated that consumption benefits such as functional, social, hedonic and altruistic benefits had a strong influence on sustainable consumption behaviour. Limited availability of sustainable brands, high price premiums, low performance of sustainable brands, and high cost of evaluation hindered the consumption of sustainable brands. A conceptual model of sustainable consumption behaviour was developed based on the findings and the literature. The new model would assist researchers and marketers to effectively promote sustainable purchase behaviour in India.

“…Several previous scholars used the SEM methods to examine and test the relationship between hypotheses. For example, Kalamas, Cleveland [204] believed that there is a need to study the understanding of consumers' allocation regarding environmental responsibility related to external forces; in this regard, this study examines how external attributions affect pro-environmental behaviors of consumers among 263 consumers of the Canadian urban area, for developed SEM model this study used TPB by involving several variables such as corporate responsibility, government responsibility, god/higher power and natural earth-cycle. The results of this paper showed analytical ways for government and corporations to improve the pro-environmental efforts.…”

Most methodological areas assume common serious reflections to certify difficult study and publication practices, and, therefore, approval in their area. Interestingly, relatively little attention has been paid to reviewing the application of Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) in environmental sustainability problems despite the growing number of publications in the past two decades. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to fill this gap by conducting a wide search in two main databases including Web of Science and Scopus to identify the studies which used SEM techniques in the period from 2005 to 2016. A critical analysis of these articles addresses some important key issues. On the basis of our results, we present comprehensive guidelines to help researchers avoid general pitfalls in using SEM. The results of this review are important and will help researchers to better develop research models based on SEM in the area of environmental sustainability.

“…Pro-environmental behavior such as GCB is driven by both internal factors (e.g., knowledge, attitude) and external factors (e.g., government, retailer) (Chan and Lau, 2000;Kalamas et al, 2014;Tsarenko et al, 2013). These factors influence consumers either to practice or not to practice GCB in their daily lives.…”
