Resumo(s)

Sustainable technologies are increasingly being introduced into consumers’ life as a mitigation effort against environmental problems. However, the study of the main factors that influence its use and satisfaction, but especially their impact on well-being has not been yet fully explored. In fact, post-adoption stages are infrequently studied on this topic. To fill this gap, this study aims to explain the consumers’ inner motivations for sustainable technology use and satisfaction and the impact of those technologies on consumers’ perceived well-being. Moreover, the moderating impact of intrinsic motivations is explored. A contextualized model is created based on a mixed methods approach. We tested our model using 400 observations from Greece. The work found the significance of all hypotheses, except the moderation between use and perceived well-being. The study provides valuable insights into the understanding of the consumers’ motivations to use sustainable technologies, as well as the role of technologies in more humanistic outcomes.
