题目:A cross-country comparative study on sustainable consumption of car sharing

摘要:Considered as one of the major sharing economy platforms, car sharing has received increasing attention and usage. Many researchers and practitioners have highlighted the enormous potential of the car sharing platform in business opportunities, environmental benefits, and social impacts. Based on different theories in terms of service quality, cultural dimensions theory, trust theory, perceived value theory, and transaction cost theory, we propose a research model to examine the moderating effect of societal individualism-collectivism and uncertainty avoidance on the relationship between antecedents and sustainable use of car sharing. Four countries will be selected for this study based on societal individualism-collectivism and uncertainty avoidance. We will collect data from two major car sharing platforms' customers from each country, respectively. Based on between-group (Australia & USA vs. China & UAE) and within-group (Australia vs. USA and China vs. UAE) comparisons, the research findings will not only boost the theory of customers' sustainable use of car sharing in general but also provide the practical guideline to develop and manage the car sharing platform. In summary, the paper will contribute to the economic development, environmental protection, and social welfare in these four countries and beyond.
