Abstract: | This study aims to determine which values are essential to American (U.S.) fair trade (hereafter as: f-t.) consumption. The data are collected using a Web-based version of the Schwartz Value Survey (SVS), selected from actual consumers purchasing f-t. products from a range of f-t. retailers on the Internet. It is verified that indeed there are significant interactions btw. personal values and f-t. consumption. Demographics is proved to be useless in creating a profile of the U.S. f-t. consumer. |
