What the paper says

This article focuses on cross-border e-commerce and observes the effect of greenwash and green e-WOM (word of mouth) on consumers’ mindful consumption. The mediating role of brand attitude between greenwash and e-WOM on mindful consumption is tested. The moderating role of return policy leniency is also tested. The survey method was employed to conduct this research, and data were collected in two waves from 543 respondents. The proposed hypotheses were tested using structural equation modeling through SmartPLS. The results show that green e-WOM has a definite impact on mindful consumption. The mediating role of brand attitude is empirically evident.
