چکیده

در این عصر دیجیتال، فناوری هوش مصنوعی به سرعت در حال توسعه است. هوش مصنوعی می‌تواند کارایی تولید و کیفیت عمومی زندگی را از طریق کمک به نیروی انسانی بهبود بخشد و به‌طور بالقوه منجر به تبدیل انواع مشاغل، افزایش صنعتی‌سازی و ارتقاء ساختار انرژی شود. در این راستا، در مطالعة حاضر تأثیر هوش مصنوعی بر شستشوی سبز با نقش میانجی­گری عوامل زمینه ­ای و تعدیل­ گری نگرش به محصولات سبز بررسی شد. این تحقیق از لحاظ هدف کاربردی بوده و از نظر ماهیت و روش جمع ­آوری داده ­ها، توصیفی-پیمایشی است. جامعة آماری این تحقیق شامل کلیة مصرف‌کنندگان محصولات سبز در شهر تبریز می ­باشد. باتوجه به جدول مورگان تعداد 384 نفر به روش نمونه­ گیری تصادفی طبقه­ بندی شده انتخاب شده، اما جهت اطمینان و احتمال عدم برگشت پرسشنامه، تعداد 395 عدد پرسشنامه در بین مصرف­کنندگان محصولات ­سبز در شهر تبریز توزیع شد. برای اطمینان از میزان پایایی متغیرهای پژوهش، از ضریب آلفای کرونباخ و جهت سنجش روایی از روایی همگرا و واگرا توسط نرم­ افزار بهره گرفته شد. ابزار سنجش پژوهش حاضر پرسشنامة استاندارد براساس طیف لیکرت است. در پژوهش حاضر نیز تجزیه­ وتحلیل داده­ها به کمک نرم ­افزارهای Smart PLS و SPSS انجام شده است. تحلیل فرضیة اول و دوم نشان داد که هوش مصنوعی بر شستشوی سبز و عوامل زمینه ­ای تأثیر معنی‌داری دارد. تحلیل فرضیة سوم نشان داد که عوامل زمینه­ ای بر شستشوی ­سبز تأثیر معنی‌داری دارد، همچنین تحلیل فرضیة چهارم و پنچم نشان داد که عوامل زمینه ­ای و نگرش نسبت به محصولات سبز در تأثیر استفاده از هوش­ مصنوعی بر شستشوی­ سبز نقش میانجی ­گری و تعدیل‌گر دارند.

چکیده [English]

In this digital era, artificial intelligence technology is developing rapidly. Artificial intelligence can improve production efficiency and the overall quality of life by assisting human resources, and potentially lead to the transformation of various occupations, increased industrialization, and the upgrading of energy structure. In this regard, in the present study, the effect of artificial intelligence on greenwashing was investigated with the mediating role of background factors and the moderating role of attitude towards green products. This research is applied in terms of its purpose and is descriptive-survey in terms of its nature and data collection method. The statistical population of this research includes all consumers of green products in Tabriz city. According to the Morgan table, 384 people were selected by stratified random sampling method, but for reliability and the possibility of non-return of the questionnaire, 395 questionnaires were distributed among consumers of green products in Tabriz city. The measurement tool of the present study is a standard questionnaire based on the Likert scale. To ensure the reliability of the research variables, Cronbach's alpha coefficient was used, and convergent and divergent validity was used by the software to measure validity. In the present study, data analysis was also performed using Smart PLS and SPSS software. The analysis of the first and second hypotheses showed that artificial intelligence has a significant effect on greenwashing and background factors. The analysis of the third hypothesis showed that contextual factors have a significant effect on greenwashing. The analysis of the fourth and fifth hypotheses also showed that contextual factors and attitudes towards green products have a mediating and moderating role in the effect of using artificial intelligence on greenwashing.
