Consciousness for sustainable consumption: scale development and new insights in the economic dimension of consumers’ sustainability (2013, background): “Examples include green consumption (Peattie 2010; Roberts 1996), ethical consumption (Devinney et al. 2010; Newholm and Shaw 2007), political consumption (Micheletti 2003; Micheletti et al.”
Ethical Consumption and New Business Models in the Food Industry. Evidence from the Eataly Case (2013, background): “The individual perspective has thus been complemented by research on the social dimension of ethical consumption (Newholm and Shaw 2007).”
Predicting green product consumption using theory of planned behavior and reasoned action (2016, background): “Despite acceptance of these theories in predicting the relationship between consumer attitude and intention behaviors, such as recycling behaviors (Davis et al., 2009; Newholm and Shaw, 2007; Davies et al., 2002), green purchase behaviors (Chen and Tung, 2014; Ha and Janda, 2012), and organic food c”

Why Stakeholders Ignore Firm Misconduct (2014, neutral): “Though it is overreaching to dismiss the ethical consumer as fantasy—certainly some and perhaps many exist (for a review, see Newholm & Shaw, 2007)—it is clear that the willingness of consumers and other stakeholders to take action in concert with their moral identity can be dampened by the burden…”
Mapping Ethical Consumer Behavior: Integrating the Empirical Research and Identifying Future Directions (2011, background): “Newholm and Shaw (2007) claimed that most of the research was conducted in affluent countries where certain ethical practices, like FT, were pioneered.”
Towards a Holistic Approach of the Attitude Behaviour Gap in Ethical Consumer Behaviours: Empirical Evidence from Spain (2011, background): “There is some disagreement as to the most suitable methodological approaches when studying ethical consumer behavior, as it is argued that consumers will give misleading answers and hide their true opinions on ethical purchase behavior ( Newholm and Shaw 2007 ).”
