摘要

本研究探讨了二维码对个人可持续服装消费的影响。来自 250 份在线调查的数据提供了有关消费者使用二维码和更多可持续消费的宝贵信息。结果表明，二维码目前在服装行业的使用率还很低，但却有可能产生更多具有环保意识的购买行为。此外，虽然物品的成本是购买可持续服装的最大影响因素，但其他因素，如服装的制作方式、地点和材质，以及公司的故事/创作灵感也会产生影响。参与者表示，他们相信二维码的使用将使他们成为更知情、更有能力的消费者，他们也更有可能购买对环境更有利的产品。参与者的定性回答提供了有用的激励措施，可以增加他们未来的可持续消费。二维码在服装消费环保意识中的作用。

Scanning & sustainability: the role of QR codes in environmental consciousness of apparel consumption

This study explores the impact that QR codes may play in individual’s sustainable apparel consumption. Data from 250 on-line surveys provided valuable information regarding consumers’ use of QR codes and more sustainable purchases. Results indicate that QR codes are currently under-utilized in the apparel industry but have the potential to generate more environmentally conscious purchases. Also, that while the cost of the item is the most influential factor in purchasing sustainable garments, other factors such as how, where, and what it is made of are in the middle, along with the company’s story/inspiration for creation have an impact. Participants indicated that they believe the use of QR codes would make them more informed and empowered consumers, and they would be more likely to make purchases that are better for the environment. Participants’ qualitative responses provide useful incentives that could increase their future sustainable purchases. Role of QR Codes in Environmental Consciousness of Apparel Consumption.
