Consumer product disposition- A systematic literature review and future research agenda

Abstract

Consumer product disposition is an area of research that needs particular attention to mitigate environmental pollution and natural resource conservation. Unlike product acquisition and consumption behaviour, consumer product disposition decisions and behaviour researches are limited. Few literature reviews are available to list several variables that impact the phenomena. However, these studies limit in following a logically structured framework to synthesise findings from existing studies. Therefore, this research study aims to review and exhaustively synthesise the findings from the past literature on consumer product disposition domain by following the theory-context-characteristics-methodology framework Accordingly, this study examines the development of consumer product disposition research over the years, journals of publications, focus areas of studies, authorship, theory used, context of the studies, predominantly used variables, and methodology used to conduct the research works. Further, based on the synthesis, a conceptual framework by integrating predominantly used antecedents, mediators, moderators, and consequences identified from the past literature also proposed. Finally, the future research directions based on theory, context, characteristics, and methodology were also discussed. This systematic review has various extensive implications for academia in expanding the existing knowledge base of consumer product disposition domain.
