Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of lifestyle and occupation on the perception of quality and its impact on consumer purchasing decisions at the Pearly Store in Tebing Tinggi City. In an era of increasingly tight retail competition, understanding the psychological and social factors of consumers is important for business actors. This study uses a quantitative approach with a survey method of 96 female consumer respondents who have shopped at the Pearly Store. The data analysis technique was carried out using Partial Least Square (PLS) with the help of SmartPLS 3.0 software. The results of the study indicate that lifestyle has a positive and significant effect on the perception of quality and purchasing decisions. Occupation has a significant effect on the perception of quality, but does not have a direct effect on purchasing decisions. Perception of quality is proven to have a significant effect on purchasing decisions, and acts as an intervening variable that mediates the relationship between occupation and lifestyle on purchasing decisions. These findings provide important implications for marketing strategies, especially in designing messages and products that are in accordance with the lifestyle and occupational background of the target market.

Abstract

Indonesia faces an escalating waste management crisis, with national waste generation reaching 35–38 million tons annually and only 32–40% managed formally. The 2025 North Sumatra flash floods, which claimed over 1,100 lives, highlighted how uncontrolled waste accumulation in drainage systems exacerbates hydrometeorological disasters. In medium-sized cities like Tebing Tinggi, where daily waste generation reaches 120–150 tons and landfill capacity is overloaded, the informal sector—comprising waste pickers and small-scale recyclers—plays a critical yet marginalized role in material recovery. This study aims to design, develop, and validate the INKLUSIRKULAR Model, an inclusive circular economy framework that bridges formal and informal sectors to reduce unmanaged waste, mitigate flood risks, and enhance inclusive green economic well-being. Using a convergent parallel mixed-method design, the study combines Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with 250 respondents and Participatory Action Research (PAR) involving 20 key informants, including waste pickers, environmental agencies, MSMEs, and flood-affected communities. The SEM-PLS results reveal that economic feasibility (β = 0.318), environmental sustainability (β = 0.306), and social justice (β = 0.294) are the strongest direct predictors of inclusive green economic well-being, explaining 63.5% of variance (R² = 0.635). Partial mediation analysis confirms that community economic empowerment mediates the effects of environmental sustainability and social justice, while waste-based innovation mediates economic feasibility and environmental sustainability. However, economic feasibility does not significantly empower communities collectively, indicating that institutional interventions are required beyond individual income gains. The PAR findings demonstrate that circular waste banks with formal recognition for waste pickers serve as the key mechanism for integrating informal actors. The study contributes a validated multi-dimensional theoretical framework for inclusive green economic well-being and provides evidence-based policy recommendations for medium-sized cities in developing countries.
