Resumo

In this paper, we set out with two objectives: investigate the determinants to explain the satisfaction with different types of collaborative consumption and investigate the determinants to explain the intention to recommend different types of collaborative consumption. It develops and tests a research model using structural equation modeling. The survey data were collected from 431 collaborative consumers. Based on our results model, economic benefits and utility are the key motivators for these consumers. That is, collaborative consumers from Brazil are not very concerned about the environmental impacts, appear very independently-minded and opportunistic, and do not feel the impact of social influence upon their activities. Our model makes a contribution to the emergent stream of literature on the sharing economy, because, to our knowledge, this is the first study to formally test the drivers of collaborative consumption considering more than three kinds of collaborative practices.
