| Beschreibungen: | This cumulative dissertation examines the psychological mechanisms and motivations of private investors in sustainability-oriented crowdfunding, with a focus on lending-based crowdfunding involving financial return expectations. Across four studies—including a systematic literature review, conjoint and latent class analysis, semi-structured interviews, and a vignette experiment—the dissertation develops an integrative research framework, identifies value-based investor segments, explores motivational heterogeneity, and examines the dynamics of reinvestment after project failure. The findings demonstrate that investor behavior in sustainability-oriented crowdfunding is shaped by complex interactions between diverse motivations, basic human values, and the influence of framing and perceived value on decision processes. This work advances current theoretical perspectives and offers practical implications for crowdfunding platforms, project initiators, and policymakers.This cumulative dissertation examines the psychological mechanisms and motivations of private investors in sustainability-oriented crowdfunding, with a focus on lending-based crowdfunding involving financial return expectations.
