چکیده مقاله :
موضوعات آرایشی و بهداشتی برای زنان به ویژه دختران جوان از اهمیت زیادی برخوردار است. تاثیر ویژگی های شخصیتی و عوامل محیطی و اجتماعی در این فرایند غیرقابل انکار است. در همین راستا، پژوهش حاضر تلاش کرده است گرایش دانشجویان دختر نسبت به محصولات آرایشی و بهداشتی براساس تئوری عمل منطقی بسط یافته و با تعدیل گری متغیرهای رسانه و همسالان مورد مطالعه و بررسی قرار دهد. این پژوهش به لحاظ هدف کاربردی و به لحاظ گردآوری داده ها همبستگی - مقطعی است. جامعه آماری پژوهش حاضر دانشجویان دختر مقطع کارشناسی علوم اداری شاغل به تحصیل در دانشگاه های مستقر در شیراز و قم بودند. بازه زمانی این پژوهش نیم سال دوم سال تحصیلی 1402-1401 بود. برای آزمون فرضیه های پژوهش از مدل سازی معادلات ساختاری و تحلیل واریانس رتبه ای استفاده شده است. بنابر یافته های این پژوهش، متغیرهای رسانه، همسالان، نگرش و هنجارهای ذهنی بر قصد خرید محصولات آرایشی و بهداشتی از سوی دانشجویان دختر دارای اثر مثبت و معناداری است. همچنین متغیر رسانه دارای اثر تعدیلی بر رابطه بین نگرش و قصد خرید و متغیر همسالان دارای اثر تعدیلی بر رابطه بین هنجارهای ذهنی و قصد خرید می باشند. براساس آزمون کروسکال والیس متغیرهای اصلی پژوهش (قصد خرید، نگرش و هنجارهای ذهنی) در میان گروه های مختلف سنی تفاوت معناداری با یکدیگر ندارند. درنهایت، یافته های این پژوهش نشان می دهد دو متغیر رسانه و همسالان نقش مهمی در فروش محصولات آرایشی و بهداشتی دارند. لذا ضرورت استفاده از رسانه های اجتماعی جدید، پلت فرم ها و اینفلوئنسرها غیرقابل انکار است.

This study is applied in terms of purpose and correlation cross-sectional in terms of data collection. The statistical population of this study were female undergraduate students of administrative sciences studying at the universities are located in Shiraz and Qom cities. The time period of this study was the second semester of the academic year 2022-2023. Structural equation modeling and the analysis of variance by rank have been used to test the research hypotheses. According to the research findings, variables of media, peers, attitude and subjective norms have a positive and significant effect on the intention to buy beauty products by female students. Also, the media variable has a moderating effect on the relationship between attitude and purchase intention, and the peer variable has a moderating effect on the relationship between subjective norms and purchase intention. Based on the Kruskal-Wallis test, the main variables of the study (purchase intention, attitude and subjective norms) are not significantly different among different age groups. Finally, the findings of this study also provide marketers and retailers within the beauty product sector with an advantage when designing marketing strategies to target young female consumers, as they will have more information regarding the factors influencing these consumers’ purchase intention towards beauty products.
