“…Various approaches have been used for highlighting the connection between the considered determinants and the consumers' behavior. With all these, two methods have been extensively employed in the research literature associated to this field: regression analysis [15,18,21,32,41] and factor analysis [14,17,22,26,29,34,39,42,43].…”

“…Attitude towards behavior represents the positive or negative feelings of the individual when adopting a certain behavior [45]. It is determined by an assessment of one's beliefs and of the consequences that result from a behavior, and it depends on the desirability of these consequences [26].…”

“…The role of the Government in protecting the environment is very important. Government measures are represented by laws and regulations in the field of environmental protection to encourage the reduction of consumption [26]. Even for this determinant, the opinions do not emerge, with some of the authors finding a positive influence on the behavior [42], while others state that the impact is not significant [28].…”

“…Awareness refers to understanding the effects of waste on the environment and the emergence of a persistent public concern [26]. According to Meng et al [34], awareness has the highest impact on the selective collection behavior among all the considered variables.…”

“…Garces et al [14] used in their model eight direct variables influencing the recycling behavior, one of them being awareness. Yahya et al [26] tested in their paper a hypothesis sustaining that "there is a significant and positive relationship between public awareness and environmentally friendly consumer behavior" (p.3), concluding that "awareness appeared to have the highest positive significant relationship with environmentally friendly consumer behavior". Nevertheless, considering Grob's model of environmental behavior [55], environmental awareness was listed among the four direct determinants of general environmental behavior [16].…”

The increase in consumerism due to population growth, excessive advertising and the constant encouragement of buying behavior by advertising media and opinion formers comes with side effects for the environment and public health if it is not properly supported by a sustainable selective waste collection process. In this context, the paper aims at determining the impact of different elements on people’s intention to participate in selective waste collection and on their behavior related to the collection process. Based on the literature, a series of variables were considered and a questionnaire was created in order to extract people’s opinions related to the selective waste collection process. As discrepancies in findings might appear due to culture in various countries, the analysis has been conducted with reference to Romania’s case. The waste collection situation in Romania is similar in some ways to other countries in the world, with some differences related to a small recycling rate compared to other countries in the European Union. In this context, it is important to identify the determinants of the consumers’ behavior in selective waste collection and to act based on these findings. Creating better policies that can support the selective waste collection process will have results in increasing the waste collection rate, offering a clear and safer environment to all the citizens.

This research explores consumer behaviour towards sustainable product choices, emphasizing the influence of visual trends. Utilizing a comprehensive survey, we examined aspects such as environmental impact awareness during purchases, recycling practices, and reactions to eco-labelling. The data, visualized through Python, revealed a preference for sustainable products among environmentally aware consumers. However, a paradox emerges with the persistent preference for non-reusable plastics, despite awareness of their environmental impact. These findings underscore the complexity of consumer behaviour and highlight the necessity for education and practical measures to foster truly sustainable choices. This study contributes novel insights into the dynamics of consumer decision-making in the context of environmental sustainability.

Çevre bilincinin artmasıyla tüketicilerin doğayı daha fazla koruma bilincine sahip olması, mevcut kaynakların gereksiz yere kullanımını engellemeye ve yenilebilir enerji kaynaklarının kullanımının arttırılmasına yönelik çalışmalara imkân sağlamıştır. Geri dönüştürülmüş maddelerden yapılan ürünleri kullanmak da bu anlayışın bir tezahürüdür. Bu bağlamda bu çalışmada, tüketicilerin geri dönüştürülmüş maddelerden yapılmış kıyafetleri satın alma niyetleri üzerinde etkili olan faktörlerin ortaya konulması amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla 25 Ocak-3 Şubat 2021 tarihlerinde çevrimiçi olarak, 18 yaşından büyük toplam 462 kişiden veri toplanmıştır. Çalışmada ilk olarak Türkçeye çevrilen ölçeğin geçerliliği ve güvenirliği ortaya konulmuştur. Daha sonra PLS-SEM ile araştırma modeli Yol Analizine tabi tutulmuştur. Analiz sonucunda tüketicilerin geri dönüştürülmüş kıyafetleri satın alma niyetleri üzerinde çevresel kaygının, ödeme istekliliğinin ve algılanan değerin pozitif bir etkisinin olduğu ama kişisel normların ise bir etkisinin olmadığı görülmüştür. Ancak genel olarak bu dört faktöründe tüketicilerin geri dönüştürülmüş kıyafetleri satın alma niyetleri üzerinde yaklaşık %63 etkisi olduğu görülmüştür. Anahtar Kelimeler: Geri Dönüştürülmüş Kıyafet, Çevresel Kaygı, PLS-SEM JEL Sınıflandırması:M11, M31
