Integrating Brand Equity Theory with the Resource-Based View and Dynamic Capabilities Theory, we propose and test a conceptual model where GBE mediates the GCM–SBP relationship, while TC exhibits dual, paradoxical moderating effects. Using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) 4.0 on survey data from 350 banking professionals, we find that GCM positively influences SBP both directly and indirectly through GBE, confirming partial mediation. However, TC negatively moderates the direct GCM–SBP link—a “technology-authenticity paradox” where advanced marketing technologies signal inauthenticity in low-trust environments—while positively moderating the GBE–SBP relationship, functioning as a validation mechanism that substantiates brand trust into tangible performance. This study contributes theoretically by introducing the concept of “resource duality” to the Resource-Based View, demonstrating that TC's value is context-dependent and pathway-specific. Practically, it advises banks to prioritize authentic, community-embedded communication for building GBE, then deploy technology for back-end verification rather than customer-facing promotion.

In this context, this study explores the role of blockchain technology (BCT) in shaping consumer preferences for tomato puree featuring credence attributes. An integrated approach that combines the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) with a choice modelling framework has been used for this purpose. The originality of this research lies in extending the TAM framework by examining how consumer sensitivity to environmental, social, and economic sustainability attributes influences behavioral intention to adopt blockchain-traced food products. Based on a representative sample of 1549 Italian respondents collected through an online survey, a Discrete Choice Experiment (DCE) and a Latent Class Model (LCM) were additionally applied to identify three distinct consumer segments according to their attitudes toward blockchain and sensitivity to credence attributes. The results reveal that a small group of respondents (6.6 %) presents low interest in both aspects, while 32.7 % prioritize sustainability-related attributes. The largest segment (60.7 %) values blockchain for ensuring authenticity and transparency. With respect to a bottle of baseline tomato puree (700 mL), differences in willingness to pay among respondents reveal that sustainability-engaged consumers value information on water footprint reduction (+5.78 EUR) and product origin (+0.84 EUR) conveyed through BCT, while those more inclined toward technology prioritize information related to organic production methods (+3.40 EUR) and labor-related sustainability (+2.74 EUR). The results provide valuable insights for producers and policymakers aiming to promote more responsible consumption and enhance sustainability communication through technological innovation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":34617,"journal":{"name":"Cleaner and Responsible Consumption","volume":"19 ","pages":"Article 100339"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145320854","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a result, this empirical work seeks to uncover the determinants of ERB in tourism destinations in Oman, concentrating on the role of sustainable intelligence (SI) in shaping destination social responsibility (DSR) and its subsequent impact on emotional solidarity and ERB. Using a quantitative approach and employing multiple non-probability sampling methods, data were gathered from 408 visitors across various Omani destinations and analysed through PLS-SEM. The empirical results revealed that SI positively influences DSR, which in turn enhances emotional solidarity and ERB. While emotional solidarity significantly drives ERB, its emotional closeness dimension does not. Additionally, DSR serves as a crucial mediator between SI and ERB. The R<sup>2</sup> findings explain 56.2 % of the variance in ERB, proving a robust research model predictive capability. The research findings contribute to the academic and practical discussions related to ERB, destination management, and marketing strategies for fostering sustainable practices in tourism destinations.

However, concerns about fire safety, durability, and the material's suitability for multi-storey structures persist. Across all segments, price and durability consistently rank as baseline criteria; safety is broadly important but shows modest variation by life-role, while the salience of construction speed, energy efficiency, aesthetics, sustainability and peer references varies more markedly. Notably, a substantial neutral segment (43 %) exhibits hesitancy toward choosing timber housing, underscoring the need for evidence-based communication that aligns proven performance with sustainability benefits and reflects the priorities of specific consumer groups.

This study explores the relationship between ecological guilt and the core principles of sustainable food consumption. Eco-guilt may influence the fundamental dimensions of overconsumption, food waste, dietary composition, or recycling, although not necessarily all of them. This study aimed to develop consumer segments based on the elements of the food eco-guilt scale and describe these clusters in terms of sustainable food consumption principles and other consumer characteristics. Data were collected from a sample of 3000 individuals in four countries and structured to reflect national population distributions across several key demographics. Cluster analysis identified two distinct segments: the ‘Guilt-Reactive’ and ‘The Uncertain’. The respondents in the ‘Guilt-Reactive’ group exhibited significantly stronger tendencies towards sustainable food-related behaviours than those in the ‘The Uncertain’ group—particularly regarding recycling, avoiding overconsumption, and reducing food waste. However, no clear commitment to dietary aspects was observed, as responses in this domain tended to be neutral rather than supportive. These findings highlight that while ecological guilt may motivate certain sustainable consumption behaviours, dietary changes, such as increasing the proportion of plant-based foods and reducing intake of highly processed, nutrient-poor products, may require motivational drivers that are stronger or of different types than eco-guilt.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":34617,"journal":{"name":"Cleaner and Responsible Consumption","volume":"19 ","pages":"Article 100347"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145363380","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
