Abstract
This piece of work aims to analyse the general tendencies of the articles in journals about eco-friendly consumption published
at SCOPUS. This study includes 162 studies from 121 different journals about eco-friendly consumption, which were published
between 2013 and 2017. In this study, the only document types that were taken into consideration were the journals, which
were published in English. In order to evaluate the studies, the classification forms, which we have specifically developed with
regard to the subject of eco-friendly consumption, were used. The published studies about eco-friendly consumption were
evaluated in terms of: the year, the publisher of the journal, the country where the study took place, the model-design-method
development, the research type, the research method, the subjects, the keywords, the chosen samples, the size of the samples,
the data collection tools, and the data analysis method. The findings are shown as percentages, frequencies, tables and graphs
in this study. The results showed that the quantitative research methods and the experimental research models are the most
frequently used methods in the area of eco-friendly consumption. The most preferred analysis methods and techniques used in
the studies about eco-friendly consumption were the quantitative ones. The most used data analysis method was descriptive data
analysis (frequency/percentage), which is among the quantitative data analysis methods. As for inferential analysis techniques,
mostly ANOVA, regression, correlation and t-tests were preferred. Mostly, consumers were chosen as the sample group while
observations, tests and surveys were used as data collection tools.
