This article develops the extended Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) to investigate the factors influencing purchase intention and
the willingness to pay a premium for green-shipped consumer products (GSCPs) among end consumers. Empirical research
conducted with 459 consumers in Hanoi, Vietnam, demonstrates that attitudes, perceived behavioral control, and perceived values
related to green freight positively impact end consumer’s behavioral intentions. In contrast, subjective norms exhibit no significant
influence. Furthermore, there is a positive correlation between behavioral intentions and the final consumer's willingness to pay
for GSCPs. These research findings offer valuable insights for transportation service providers and policymakers in their endeavors
to promote environmentally sustainable transportation solutions.

The transportation sector, recognized for its detrimental impact on the environment and human health, emitted a
staggering 8 billion tons of CO2 into the atmosphere in 2008. Even in the face of global slowdown in transportation
activities in 2021 due to the Covid-19 pandemic, emissions from this sector remained alarmingly high at 7.6 billion
tons of CO2 (Statista webpage, n.d.). These emissions carry significant economic burdens associated with pollution
and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (Callahan and Mankin, 2022). Shockingly, it has been reported that in 2021,
approximately 7 million individuals worldwide lost their lives due to air pollution, including 4.2 million deaths

attributed to outdoor air pollution (Roser, 2023). This urgent issue has placed immense pressure on urban authorities,
nations, and consumers, compelling transportation authorities to proactively enhance the sustainability of transport operations.
A range of environmentally-friendly initiatives have been introduced in the freight transport sector to mitigate CO2
emissions and improve environmental conditions. These include the adoption of electric freight vehicles (EEA, 2023),
traffic reorganization, and transport route design (Davis and Figliozzi, 2013; Demir et al., 2014), as well as restrictions
on the spatial and temporal operations of goods transport vehicles within urban areas (Quak, 2008). Nonetheless, it is
worth noting that the incorporation of green technologies is often associated with increased upfront costs, which in
turn lead to elevated transportation expenses. Therefore, it is pivotal to assess consumer acceptance and their
willingness to pay for these green services to ensure the successful implementation of such initiatives (Fries et al.,
2010). Understanding consumer behavior, acceptance, and willingness to pay serves as a cornerstone upon which
transport operators can base their investments in green initiatives. Lee (2009) has underscored the lack of research and
market information as a significant impediment for international green marketers seeking to introduce eco-friendly
products in emerging Asian markets (Lee, n.d.).
While research on sustainable green freight transportation (GFT) development is not novel, the majority of these
studies have primarily concentrated on the supply side of transportation services, with little attention given to the
preferences and acceptance of the service demand side, specifically, the end consumers. This paper fills this gap by
investigating the relationship between the psychological and environmental awareness of end consumers and their
inclination to use and pay for GSCPs. We conducted a survey among consumers in Hanoi, Vietnam, to address the
prevailing research questions: (1) To what extent do consumers endorse GSCPs? and (2), if they endorse them, are
they willing to pay a premium for GSCPs? The outcomes of our research serve as the foundation for policymakers
seeking to implement policies shaping green transportation in Vietnam.
The remainder of this article is structured as follows: Section 2 outlines the Research Framework and Research
Methods, with research findings presented in Section 3. Section 4 delves into the Discussion and Conclusions, and
finally, Section 5 expresses our gratitude.
2. Research framework and research methods 2.1. Model design
Research on consumer acceptance of green products and services has predominantly focused on developed
countries and employs established models such as the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), the Theory of Planned
Behavior (TPB), and the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT). Among these, the TPB
Model is widely recognized as a valuable framework for comprehending human behavior across various domains,
particularly in the field of environmental psychology. Extending beyond the original TPB, other studies have
endeavored to enhance the explanatory power of these models by exploring the impact of emotions, environmental
awareness, environmental beliefs, values, norms, and willingness to pay (Ateş, 2021; Schniederjans and Starkey, 2014;
Trivedi et al., 2015; Yadav and Pathak, 2017), in elucidating consumer acceptance of GSCPs.
Summarizing the existing literature on the intention and the willingness to pay more for GSCPs, our study utilizes
the TPB model while introducing two additional variables: the perceived value of green transportation services and
the willingness to pay a premium for GSCPs. Figure 1 illustrates our research model.
Willingness to Pay a Premium (WPP)
Price is consistently recognized as one of the most critical factors influencing consumers' decision-making
processes. Understanding consumers' willingness to pay a premium for socially-responsible products is crucial for
organizations, as pricing is a significant barrier to green consumption (Gleim et al., 2013). The willingness to pay a
premium price for GSCPs can be considered a form of pro-environmental behavior (Ajzen, 1991). Intention (IN)
Intention to purchase represents a consumer's subjective likelihood of acquiring a product (Fishbein and Ajzen,
1975). There are contrary findings on the relationship between IN and WTP. For example, Yadav and Pathak (2017)
found no direct correlation between WTP and IN, but others investigated a favorable association between IN and WTP ((Akan et al., 2022).

demographics, while the subsequent part comprised a series of questions intended to illuminate the independent
variables incorporated in our hypothetical research model. These variables were evaluated through diverse scales and
components (refer to Table 2). Each item on the scale was assessed using a five-point Likert scale, where respondents
could choose from a range of options from 1 ("strongly disagree") to 5 ("strongly agree").
The official survey was carried out between September 8, 2023, and September 27, 2023, utilizing a combination
of online and in-person methods. We received a total of 523 responses, but following the exclusion of invalid
submissions, such as those with missing information or identical answers for all questions, we obtained 459 valid
responses (361 online responses, 98 in-person responses), representing an 87.7% response rate. The demographic
composition of the respondents is mentioned in Table 1.
Table 1. Demographic profile of respondents Demographics Frequency Percent (%) Age Under 18 years 9 2 18 –under 25 years 172 37,5 25 - under 35 years 126 27,5 35- under 45 years 129 28,1 45- under 55 years 21 4,6 55 years and over 2 0.4 Gender Male 226 49.2 Female 232 50.5 Income Under 3 million VND per month 121 26.4

Gasoline/Diesel-Powered Personal Cars 49 10.7 Other 6 1.3
Table 1 reveals that a significant portion of the survey respondents fall within the 18 to 45 age range, a demographic
segment often more receptive to change. The gender distribution among the interviewees is nearly equal. Notably, the
largest group of respondents reported an income of less than 3 million VND, accounting for over 26% of the total. The
second-largest income group was those earning between 3 to 15 million VND, representing 22.2% of the total. Given
Hanoi's reliance on motorbikes, it is unsurprising that 136 out of 459 respondents mentioned using personal gasoline-
powered motorbikes. Additionally, a substantial number of respondents reported using motorbikes or electric bicycles,
with 112 out of 459 respondents falling into this category. Furthermore, the utilization of buses as a mode of
transportation is also relatively high, with 102 respondents indicating its use.
2.3. Analysis Procedures
This study utilizes Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to investigate the causal relationships among various
constructs. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) is employed in the measurement model of our study to define latent
constructs from observed variables, while path analysis is utilized within the structural model to explore causal
relationships among these latent constructs. This analysis aims to reveal the interrelationships and interdependencies
among the latent variables, offering insights into the underlying causal mechanisms (Kline R.B, 2015). There are 6
measurement models in our study (refer to Figure 1). SPSS 20 and AMOS 21 software are utilized for data analysis
56 Tran Thi Lan Huong et al. / Transportation Research Procedia 85 (2025) 52–59
procedures. The result of factor analysis shows that all normalized factor loadings of items surpass 0.70 to guarantee
satisfactory validity (Fornell and Larcker, 1981). In the next step, the structural model was analyzed using AMOS 21
software. To evaluate the accuracy of the model, the following indices were considered: Chi-square ratio and degrees
of freedom (χ2/df) must be below 3.0 (Hu and Bentler, 1999). Furthermore, Goodness of Fit (GFI), Comparative Fit
Index (CFI), and Tucker-Lewis Index (TLI) values greater than 0.9 and Root Mean Square Error of Approximation
(RMSEA) less than 0.08 (Hair et al., 2010). 3. Results
3.1. Reliability and Validity of the Measurement Model,
Table 2 presents the results, showing that all items exhibit normalized factor loadings greater than 0.7, which
signifies strong convergence. The AVE values range from 0.748 to 0.873, surpassing the conve ntional threshold of
0.50. Furthermore, both the CR and Cronbach's alpha coefficients surpass the acceptable threshold of 0.7 (Fornell and
Larcker, 1981). These results confirm the suitability of the research model.

The results from Table 3 indicate that the square root of the average variance extracted (AVE) for each latent
construct exceeded the inter-construct correlation values of the same construct and other measured constructs,
indicating satisfactory discriminant validity.
The mean of each construct reflects participants' perceptions concerning the six constructs under study. The
participants showed the highest level of Intention (Mean = 4.21), followed by Perceived Value of GFT and Attitude
(Mean = 4.04), Perceived behavioral control (Mean = 3.7), Subjective Norm (Mean = 3.5), and finally Willingness to

Pay a Premium (Mean = 2.87). These findings demonstrate a positive disposition among end consumers toward green
transportation. It is evident that they are deeply aware of the positive values of green transportation, resulting in a
robust endorsement of eco-friendly modes for the distribution of consumer goods. Nonetheless, when questioned about
their willingness to bear additional costs for green transportation, the level of agreement appears to be relatively low,
with substantial differences in responses.

3.2 The structural model
The analysis of the structural model and hypothesis testing was conducted using AMOS software. Figure 2 and
Table 4 present the results of the structural model. The criteria to evaluate the model's suitability are completely within
the allowed threshold (χ2/df = 2.775 < 3.0; GFI = 0.918 > 0.9; TLI = 0.958 > 0.9; CFI = 0.964 > 0.9; RMSEA = 0.062
< 0.08), proving that the research model is appropriate.
With the exception of hypothesis H1, all other hypotheses are empirically supported. These outcomes elucidate that
the inclination of consumers to procure consumer goods delivered through green transportation services depends on
their attitudes towards eco-friendly transportation products, their perceived control over purchasing decisions, and
their awareness of environmental benefits associated with green freight transport. Furthermore, the intentions of end
consumers exhibit a positive influence on their propensity to incur additional expenditures for green transportation.

AT: Attitude; PBC: Perceived behavioral control; SN: Subjective norm; PV: Perceived Value; IN: Intention; WPP: Willingness to Pay a Premium. 4. Discussion
Our research model is designed to examine the influence of intention on the willingness to purchase GSCPs within
the Vietnamese context. Furthermore, we aim to explore the factors motivating consumers to buy GSCPs,
encompassing consumer attitudes, perceived behavioral control, subjective norms, and perceptions of the
environmental benefits of green freight transportation. In line with the Theory of Planned Behavior, our findings
indicate that both consumer AT and PBC exhibit positive correlations with consumers' intention to buy GSCPs.
Notably, consumer attitudes exhibit a particularly robust connection with intention, consistent with numerous prior
studies concerning the association between consumer attitudes and purchase intention such as (Akan et al., 2022;
Schniederjans and Starkey, 2014; Yadav and Pathak, 2017; Zhuang et al., 2021). Therefore, we recommend that
organizations direct their efforts toward promoting the adoption of eco-friendly transportation and emphasizing the
positive environmental effects of green freight transportation.
58 Tran Thi Lan Huong et al. / Transportation Research Procedia 85 (2025) 52–59
In contrast to Schniederjans and Starkey's study, we found a slight positive relationship between Perceived
Behavioral Control (PBC) and Intention (IN), whereas Subjective Norm (SN) showed no association with IN, aligning
with the findings of a previous study (Ateş, 2021; Nekmahmud et al., 2022; Zhuang et al., 2021). Both PBC and SN
received average scores at an intermediate level, showing relatively high convergence (SD = 0.8). This might be
attributed to the relatively recent introduction of "green transportation" in the Vietnamese market, where not everyone
possesses a comprehensive understanding of it. Consequently, consumers may place more confidence in their
individual purchasing decisions than in the influence of external factors. Alternatively, they may have other
considerations, such as price and delivery time when deciding to buy GSCPs.
Perceived value (PV) was introduced as an additional variable to the TPB model, revealing a positive relationship
with IN. Furthermore, PV not only has a direct impact on IN but also influences IN through Attitude (AT) and PBC,
showing a strong correlation. This highlights that greater awareness of the benefits of green freight will enhance
consumers' attitudes towards GSCP and streamline their decision-making process when choosing GSCP. Therefore,
we recommend that green marketers and policymakers prioritize making green products easily accessible to consumers
through effective pricing strategies and communication of the environmental benefits of green freight for individuals.
Finally, although the path analysis results indicate that those who support purchasing green transport goods
influence their willingness to pay more, the analysis results in Table 3 indicate that IN has a mean of 4.27 with an SD
of 0.76, while Willingness to Pay a Premium (WPP) has a mean of 2.87 and an SD of 1.32. This suggests that
consumers strongly support the idea of environmentally-friendly transportation services but may be less inclined to
pay extra for GSCPs. In other words, individuals in a developing country may be highly price-sensitive when it comes
to goods and services (Yadav and Pathak, 2017). According to (Huong et al., 2020), 22.09% of consumers in Hanoi
expressed a high interest in the pricing of last-mile delivery services, and these pricing considerations can significantly
impact consumer purchasing decisions. Therefore, policymakers and freight transport operators need to develop
suitable green solutions that align with various stages and consumer willingness to pay.
In order to implement environmentally friendly measures without increasing transportation costs, we propose that
the government should consider financial support policies for transportation operators, such as reducing taxes, fees,
and providing subsidies. Additionally, preferential loans for green transportation businesses could be introduced.
Simultaneously, active promotion and advertising of the benefits, values, and image of green freight transport are
necessary to capture consumer attention and enhance their willingness to support and pay more in the future. 5. Conclusions
In summary, environmental pollution in the transportation sector remains a global concern, with road freight
transport, as confirmed by (McKinnon, 2018), being one of the most challenging sectors to decarbonize. Furthermore,
Fries has noted that green transportation can be relatively expensive (Fries et al., 2010), potentially increasing the
selling price of consumer goods. Therefore, shippers and transporters must consider consumers' acceptance and their
willingness to pay more before deciding on a mode of transportation or adopting green measures. The TPB theoretical
model has proven to be a valuable tool for understanding consumers' intentions to purchase GSCPs.
Beyond the documented findings, this study recognizes several limitations that should be taken into account in
future research. Firstly, the study does not consider the influence of demographic variables on the intention and
willingness to pay for purchasing GSCPs. Secondly, the measurement of consumer purchasing behavior of GSCPs
relies on self-reported data rather than actual observed behavior. Lastly, the study focuses on green products in a
general sense; however, it is essential to recognize that consumers' behavioral intentions to purchase GSCPs may vary
across different product categories. Acknowledgments
