Abstract

Purpose: In the era of sustainable development, the role of consumers and businesses has become increasingly important by demonstrating the importance of social and environmental issues. Accordingly, firms widely adopt cause-related marketing to fulfil corporate social responsibility. The purpose of this study is to examine factors that affect consumer attitude toward cause-related marketing with perspectives of the sustainable development goals (SDGs) and instrumental conditioning. Research design, data and methodology: Proposed research questions include effects of cognition, emotion, sustainability, and business ethics on attitude, effects of attitude on purchase intention, and effects of intention on satisfaction. This study collected the data via an online survey and applied factor and regression analysis. Results: Findings indicated that factors affect attitudes differently in cases of cause-related marketing with SDGs and instrumental conditioning. The results of this study found that business ethics affects consumer attitude and differ based on types of cause-related marketing. This study found that attitude positively affects purchase intention that also affects expected satisfaction. Conclusions: By applying perspectives of SDGs, findings of this study provide implications to producers, marketers, and policymakers to promote and achieve sustainability. In particular, the results found that business ethics should be more addressed to fulfill customer attitude.
