Purposive sampling technique is used to collect responses from 500 Gen-Z. Structural dependence relationship between the constructs has been analysed using Structural equation modelling (SEM) technique. Mediating effect has been studied using Bootstrapping technique. The model’s validity and reliability has been examined by using Confirmatory Factor Analysis.
