Abstract: Abstract In an effort to reduce the negative impact of clothing manufacturing on the environment, a number of international clothing brands have made strides towards engaging in more environmentally-sustainable behaviours. However, further research is still needed in order to understand the effects of these efforts on consumer perception and decision-making in the case of sustainable clothing. This study examines the role of visual information (VI) associated with sustainable clothing on a website, and the perceived intelligence of voice assistants (PIVA), in influencing consumers’ purchase behaviour (PB) when shopping online for sustainable clothing. 2656 valid samples were collected and analysed using correlation analysis, factor analysis, and regression analysis. The results indicate that VI and PIVA both significantly influence consumers’ positive attitudes and PB towards sustainable clothing. Furthermore, the significant effect of these two factors on PB, through positive attitude towards sustainable clothing, are moderated by knowledge of sustainability issues. This paper therefore provides theoretical implications for sustainable clothing online retailing by testing the relationship between relevant variables. The findings also contribute to brand retailers improving their consumers’ decision-making and strengthening the perception-behaviour relationship in sustainable clothing shopping.

Smart Technologies, Sustainability, and Consumer Behavior: A Review and Research Agenda Using <scp>TCCM</scp> and <scp>PTM</scp>
Nitika Sharma,Ruchi Garg,Nitika Sharma,Ruchi Garg +3 more
Abstract: ABSTRACT The integration of smart technologies into everyday life has raised significant questions about their role in fostering sustainability and shaping consumer behavior. This study presents a comprehensive systematic literature review to explore the intersection of smart technologies, sustainability, and consumerism, motivated by increasing academic fragmentation across these domains. We employ a systematic review of 192 articles that combines the Theory–Context–Characteristics–Methodology (TCCM) framework with Probabilistic Topic Modeling (PTM). This dual method enables a synthesis of theoretical, contextual, and empirical developments in the field. The findings reveal dominant themes, evolving research trends, and underexplored areas, particularly in consumer‐centric adoption and sustainability‐centric outcomes. This contributes to the literature by offering two conceptual frameworks that integrate insights across sectors and highlight behavioral and sectoral dynamics in technology adoption. The study identifies theoretical blind spots, practical implications across industries, and proposes an agenda for future research in the era of digital and sustainable transformation.
The impact of smart wearable product influence elements on health promotion behaviors

Abstract: Abstract The rise of Smart Wearable Health Products (SWHP) offers fresh perspectives on solving societal health issues in light of wearable computing and personalized healthcare. However, more investigation is needed to clarify the exact processes by which smart wearables affect users’ health results. To examine how the technological and esthetic components of SWHP affect users’ psychological processes and health promotion behaviors (HPB), the study uses a multidisciplinary approach to build a stimulus-organism-response (SOR) model. A total of 506 valid samples were gathered, and structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data. The findings show that data management, social interaction, and esthetic pleasure considerably impact users’ positive affect (PA) and that PA partially mediates their relationship with HPB. Besides, users’ self-efficacy and HPB are influenced by their perceptions of the technological and esthetic components. This study of the smart wearables’ function mechanism provides a novel direction for the growth of the health technology industry chain and helps designers to further improve users’ health-related usage and decision-making.

An integrative review of sensory marketing: Engaging the senses to affect perception, judgment and behavior
TL;DR: Sensory marketing as discussed by the authors is defined as marketing that engages the consumers' senses and affects their perception, judgment and behavior, which can be used to create subconscious triggers that characterize consumer perceptions of abstract notions of the product (e.g., its sophistication or quality).
