Abstract

This research aims to 1) examine the trust that affects purchase intention, 2) investigate the brand image that influences purchase intention, and 3) explore word-of-mouth communication through electronic media that impacts purchase intention of sodas that use sweeteners instead of sugar. This study is a quantitative research with a sample group of working-age individuals aged 18-60 living in the Bangkok area, consisting of 400 people (with a 95% confidence level). Data was collected using a questionnaire, and data analysis was conducted using three methods: 1) Descriptive Analysis, 2) Inferential Statistics, and 3) Multiple Regression Analysis. The results showed that brand image and word-of-mouth communication via electronic media had an effect on the purchase intention of sodas with sweeteners instead of sugar (p < 0.05),  with Beta values of 0.157 and 0.446, respectively. However, trust had no effect on the purchase intention of sodas with sweeteners instead of sugar (p > 0.05).
