Quality and Sustainability Criteria in Purchase Decisions of Teenagers
Journal Title: International Journal of Fundamental Physical Sciences - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
The raising sustainability awareness of consumers has brought the discourse about environmental impacts of products into pulic discourse. Industry has had to respond to this demand for sustainable products. Among the different customers groups, teenagers play a considerable role: Sustainability is particularly important for the younger generations. Children and teenagers of today are going to have to cope with the consequences of negligence of previous and current generations in protecting the environmental and social situation. It is thus important to understand how children and teenagers perceive the problem, and how they will act as consumers in the future. This paper discusses a project where teenagers were surveyed to find out about the importance of sustainability and quality aspects of products. Electronic entertainment products and clothing products were considered as it is assumed that teenagers mostly spend their pocket money for these two branches of products.

Existence of Positive Solutions for (p1-p2) - Laplacian System to Dirichlet Boundary Conditions
In this paper, we deal with the multiplicity of positive solutions for a class of (p , q)-Lalpacian system. Moreover, the author established suitable conditions under which, the problem has positive solutions.
Nonlinear free and forced vibration analysis of a single-walled carbon nanotube using shell model
In this Paper, the nonlinear free and forced vibration of a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) with simply supported ends is investigated based on von Karman’s geometric nonlinearity. The SWCNT described as an individ...
Geotextiles and Study of Their Behavior on Sand Embankments
Today, soil reinforcement is applied as an effective and reliable way to increase the resistance of the soil mass. This method works in a variety of instruments to stabilize earthen dam, layers below the surface, the emb...
Generalized symmetries and higher order conservation laws of the camassa-Holm equation
In the present paper, we derive generalized symmetries of order three of the Camassa–Holm equation. In addition, one–dimensional optimal system of Lie subalgebras are investigated. Furthermore, the 2-dimensional homotopy...
Theory of special relativity: False premise that leads to obtain incorrect conclusions
In this paper, we present the chain of errors that have been committed to accepting the utopia of time dilation. This chain of errors begins accepting as true some false premises. Starting from these false premises, err...
