Storytelling, humour, and promotions: How social media marketing influences university students' green purchase intention by Jinchi Cai, Syuhaily Osman, Sharifah Azizah Haron, Wenqing Teng

“…Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was used to validate Study 1, analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to validate Study 2, and PROCESS Model 4 was used to evaluate the mediation functions of attitude and conceptual fluency. The results indicate that firm-generated content (FGC) is more effective than user-generated content (UGC) in terms of university students' engagement - specifically liking (L), sharing (S), and commenting (C) - as well as in fostering green purchase intentions (GPI), particularly with firm-generated storytelling content (FGCS). …”
