توجه به­حفظ محیط‌زیست امری لازم است و عدم توجه، موجب بروز خسران به انسان‌ها و محیط می‌گردد. تفکر خرید محصولات سبز، ‌موجب شده تا مردم در مورد نوع محصولاتی که خریداری می‌نمایند، بازنگری نموده و محصولاتی را انتخاب کنند که به محیط‌زیست آسیب کمتری برساند. هدف از پژوهش حاضر بررسی تأثیر نشانگرهای حسی بر تمایل به خرید مشتریان با نقش میانجی‌ اخلاق‌مداری برند از دیدگاه مصرف‌کننده (مورد مطالعه: مشتریان محصولات ارگانیک نفس) در شهر مشهد بوده است. این پژوهش از حیث هدف کاربردی و از نظر ماهیت توصیفی – پیمایشی است. جامعه‌آماری پژوهش کلیه­ مشتریان و مصرف‌کنندگان محصولات ارگانیک نفس که به شعبه­های عرضه محصولات در شهر مشهد مراجعه کرده‌اند، می­باشد. نمونه آماری براساس قاعده 5-10 برابر تعداد گویه­ها (براساس نرم افزار پی ال اس)، 192 نفر مشخص شد که پرسشنامه­ها به روش نمونه­گیری غیرتصادفی در دسترس بین آنان توزیع گردید. روایی محتوای پرسشنامه­ به تأیید جمعی از اساتید و خبرگان رسید و جهت سنجش پایایی پرسشنامه­ها از آلفای کرونباخ استفاده شد که مقدار آن 825/0 برآورد گردید و تأیید شد. تحلیل داده­ها با نرم­افزار PLS3 و شاخص GOF، 468/0 انجام شد. نتایج حاکی از تأثیر مثبت اخلاق‌مداری برند بر تمایل به خرید مشتریان می‌باشد و اخلاق‌مداری برند نقش مثبت و میانجی بر تأثیرگذاری نشانگرهای حسی بر تمایل به خرید مشتریان داشت. اما‌ تأثیر نشانگر حسی دیداری برتمایل به خرید مشتریان محصولات ارگانیک نفس رد شد.

چکیده [English]

Introduction: Environmental pollution and the increase of pollutants affect the reduction in quality and health of the people and concerns society and organizations more than ever. Consideration and importance of environmental protection is considered a necessity and the lack of attention and systematic action will cause damage to humans and the environment. Thinking and buying movement of green and organic products has led the world population to review the types of products they buy and choose which lead to picking less environmental harmful products. This has led to the tendency of the community to consume and buy healthy products as well as the creation of a competitive ground for the companies and organizations for producing organic and green products. People's emotions and moods can affect their purchase positively or negatively. If people are going shopping with feelings like passion and pleasure, they do more to satisfy the needs of pleasure. An important external factor in the purchase of customers is the purchase location. The shopping centre environment affects the understanding of the customer by sensory attributes. The auditory perception and touch sense are important for the impact on vendors and marketers and to encourage customer activity and behavior. The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of sensory attributes on the willingness to purchase by customers with mediating role of brand orbital ethics from consumer perspective (study: Nafas customers of organic products) in Mashhad city.

Conclusion: Suggestion include Given that brand products are commoditized and tangible, consumers may be more focused on tactile sensitivity and their effectiveness which comes from the touch of the commodity based on the results of other hypotheses. On the other hand, listening to the experiences of other customers can also influence people's willingness to buy. It is suggested that the goods be arranged so that customers can easily see the goods and easily identify and purchase the self-brand among the organic product brands. It is recommended to enhance the brightness of the store environment and inform consumers of the changes or environmental changes in product mix through advertising and product labeling. It is suggested that mild music be used to soothe the breath shop space. And also applying acoustic insulation to the walls would reduce inappropriate noise outside the store. Restoration and refurbishment of the shop floor is also very effective in increasing customer satisfaction. It is suggested to focus on improving the touch communication of the product, which increases the satisfaction and therefore the desire to purchase more. In-store products can be contracted as a sample for customers to feel confident in purchasing with the touch of a product type. As the company relates more closely to the customer's culture and social commitment, it can influence customer sentiment and profit through customer mouth-to-mouth advertising on products. Self-brand responsibility is also accessible through employee interaction with customers. These include talking to employees and each other as well as with clients and providing guidance on properties, especially new products, to inform the customer.
