Dijital yerliler olarak adlandırılan Z Kuşağı birçok yönden diğer kuşaklardan farklılaşmaktadır. Rol modellerin, Z kuşağının davranışsal niyetleri üzerindeki etkileri incelemek doğru pazarlama stratejilerinin geliştirilebilmesine yardımcı olacaktır. Bireyler ailelerini, ünlüleri, saygın kabul edilen kişileri, iş insanlarını, arkadaşlarını, öğretmenlerini ve toplumun farklı kesimlerinden farklı statülerdeki birçok farklı kişiyi rol model olarak görmekte ve onlardan etkilenmektedir. Bu kapsamda, dijitalleşen dünyada Z kuşağının kimleri rol model aldığını ve rol modellerinden nasıl etkilendiğini anlamak önemlidir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Z kuşağında rol model değişkeninin davranışsal niyet üzerindeki etkisini incelemektir. Veriler, 415 katılımcıdan, anket formları aracılığıyla kolayda örnekleme yöntemi kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Analiz için SPSS 26 Paket Programı ve SPSS Process makrodan yararlanılmıştır. Sonuçlar, rol model değişkeninin marka sadakati, ağızdan ağıza iletişim, ürün değiştirme ve şikâyet değişkenleri üzerinde etkili olduğunu göstermiştir.
