Die geringen Marktanteile für fair gehandelte Produkte liefern jedoch ein anderes Bild und lassen auf eine hohe soziale Wünschbarkeit in den Antworten schließen. Ziel dieser Studie war es mittels Discrete-Choice-Analyse den Probanden in einer realitätsnahen Kaufsitua-tion sozialverträgliche Produkte anzubieten. Im Rahmen der Diskreten Entscheidungsanalyse wurden Kaufwahrscheinlichkeiten und Marktanteile für die einzelnen Produkte geschätzt. Ins-besondere in Kombination mit einem Markenprodukt lassen die ermittelten Mehrpreisbereit-schaften auf nicht unerhebliche Marktchancen für gesiegelte Produkte schließen. Die Ergebnis-se zeigen auch, dass mehr Informationen und höheres Vertrauen der Konsumenten über Fair Trade zu einer gesteigerten Preisbereitschaft führen. Als Resultat der Zertifizierung mit Fair Trade Siegeln wurden nicht zu unterschätzende Wettbewerbsvorteile für Produzenten von Kon-sumgütern festgestellt.

Today's youth form a crucial target group for intervening in unsustainable overconsumption habits and for setting the path and ideas on responsible living. This article explores young people's motivations for engaging in three behavioural patterns linked to anti-consumption (voluntary simplicity, collaborative consumption, and living within one's means) in relation to sustainability. Applying a qualitative approach, laddering interviews reveal the consequences and values behind the anti-consumption behaviours of young people of ages 14 to 24 according to a means-end chains analysis. The findings highlight potential for and the challenges involved in motivating young people to reduce material levels of consumption for the sake of sustainability. Related consumer policy tools from the fields of education and communication are identified. This article provides practical implications for policy makers, activists, and educators. Consumer policies may strengthen anti-consumption among young people by addressing individual benefits, enabling reflection on personal values, and referencing credible narratives. The presented insights can help give a voice to young consumers, who struggle to establish themselves as key players in shaping the future consumption regime.

To understand them, this research introduces the idea that the same consumer motives can exert different and potentially opposite impacts when organic consumption patterns unfold. The proposed multistage theory of differential effects distinguishes a participation stage, when consumers decide whether to purchase organic at all, and an expenditure stage, when consumers decide about how much of their budget to spend on organic products across purchases. An analysis of shopping patterns of approximately 14,000 households confirms the proposed differential influences: Other-oriented motives (care for others and the environment) support participation but impede sustained expenditures. Only self-oriented motives (hedonism) foster both participation and expenditures. The results pinpoint the need to rethink organic consumption as a stage-specific problem, which opens up new perspectives for managers about an old but persistent problem.

A general reduction in consumption levels is considered necessary to attain global sustainability goals. However, knowledge regarding the factors driving people to deliberately consume less and how anti-consumption affects individuals' well-being is limited. Against this background, this study considers the influence of human values and the well-being effects of two types of anti-consumption: voluntary simplicity and collaborative consumption. Based on representative data from the US (N = 1075) and Germany (N = 1070), the findings show that the two anti-consumption types do not reduce the well-being of individuals' but in some cases, even improve it, which suggests that lowering consumption can not only help protect environmental resources but also serve the greater good of society. In particular, this relationship holds among collaborative consumers with a strong need for cognition, i.e., a cognitive thinking style that involves a high level of decision control. According to the study results, opposite value orientations are the drivers of voluntary simplicity and collaborative consumption (i.e., a focus on self-transcendence versus self-enhancement). These findings are comparable in both countries; however, the strength of the effects differs.
