If the Cap Fits : An empirical exploration of how ethical consumption is capped

Egan-Wyer, Carys LU orcid (2024) Asia-Pacific ACR Conference 2024
Abstract
Consumers’ ethical efforts are capped by unethical market forces. A longitudinal study of anti-consumers shows that when systemic support was removed, consumers previously fully committed to ethical lifestyles, exhibited symptoms of an ethical consumption gap, suggesting the problem lies not with the individual (gap) but with the context (cap).
