As a result, social influence, environmental attitudes, perceived barriers and green purchase intentions were selected as factors.

The methods included strategies such as expert judgment, cognitive methods, pilot test and reliability coefficients for different appliance categories. The results show that the scale is reliable and measures the proposed constructs.
