Abstract

This research investigates the complex dynamics of sustainable consumer behavior through a comprehensive analysis of sustainable media campaigns. The purpose is to contribute to the understanding of the impact of sustainable media campaigns on consumer behavior, drawing upon insights from previous studies. Utilizing a quantitative approach, the research employs surveys and statistical analyses to unravel the complexities surrounding sustainable consumer behavior. The methodology includes a reliability analysis to confirm the internal consistency of the survey instrument, factor analysis to reveal distinct components, and regression analysis to identify significant predictors. A sample size of 424 was collected using Convenience sampling method selecting employed individuals who were most conveniently accessible but possessed knowledge of sustainability, marketing, consumer behavior, and media campaign functions in their respective organizations. The findings showcase the nuanced factors influencing sustainable consumer behavior, encompassing sustainable positioning, psychological factors, and promotional strategies. Regression analysis identifies significant predictors (SP1, PF1, PS1), collectively explaining approximately 64.9% of the variance in sustainable consumer behavior. The originality lies in the integration of past research findings, providing a comprehensive perspective on sustainable media campaigns' impact. The value lies in offering practical insights for marketers, policymakers, and organizations to optimize sustainable media campaigns and foster positive changes in consumer behavior towards sustainability.
