AB  - In the last decades, academic literature has been putting a notorious emphasis on
the concepts of socially responsible consumer. However, literature also shows the
existence of differences in the behavioural attitudes of consumers, due to the
influence of the socio-cultural context and of social interactions. In the case of
Portugal, there is no thorough study that analyzes the propensity of individuals for
socially responsible consumption. Thus, this paper aims to examine the
determinants of Socially Responsible Purchase and Disposal (SRPD), building on the
work of Weeb, Mohr and Harris (2008), by analyzing the socio-demographic
consumer profile.
Exploratory interviews were used and collected data were subject to qualitative
analysis. Additionally, a convenience sample of 1027 Portuguese adults answered to
an online questionnaire. The results show that the socially conscious behaviour
appears to be well established among the consumers. Also, individuals with certain
demographic characteristics differ in their levels of social consciousness in purchase
and consumption.
