ClearFactors Affecting the Intention to Implement Pro-environmental Behaviors: A Case of Riverside Communities in Cotabato City Rivers, Mindanao Island, Philippines
A study of riverside communities in Cotabato City, Philippines, examined what factors influence residents' intention to adopt environmentally protective behaviors, including proper waste disposal. Understanding community behavior drivers is relevant to reducing the plastic pollution that Filipino rivers contribute to the ocean.
Factors Influencing Urban Residents’ Intention of Garbage Sorting in China: An Extended TPB by Integrating Expectancy Theory and Norm Activation Model
Researchers extended the Theory of Planned Behavior with expectancy theory and norm activation to identify factors driving urban residents' intention to sort garbage in China, finding that subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and personal moral norms were the strongest predictors.
Do attitude towards behavior, subjective norms, and perceived control behavior matter on environmentally friendly plastic purchasing intention?
This study investigated whether attitude toward behavior, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control predict consumer intention to purchase environmentally friendly plastic products, using questionnaire data collected via social media platforms. The findings provide empirical support for the Theory of Planned Behavior as a framework for understanding sustainable plastic purchasing decisions.
The Role of Awareness of Consequences in Predicting the Local Tourists’ Plastic Waste Reduction Behavioral Intention: The Extension of Planned Behavior Theory
Researchers surveyed local tourists in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia to understand what drives intentions to reduce plastic waste on beaches. The study found that awareness of environmental consequences, social norms, and perceived behavioral control all positively influenced intentions to reduce plastic waste. Interestingly, personal attitude alone was not a significant predictor, suggesting that community influence and awareness campaigns may be more effective than individual mindset shifts.
Students’ Attitudes and Perceptions Towards Plastics and Microplastics Pollution: Implications for Vietnam
This Vietnamese study applied the Theory of Planned Behavior to survey students' attitudes and intentions regarding plastic and microplastic pollution. Attitude was the strongest predictor of pro-environmental behavioral intention (β=0.411), suggesting that awareness and attitude change through education are more effective levers than appeals to subjective norms.
Extending the theory of planned behaviour to investigate the issue of microplastics in the marine environment
Researchers extended the theory of planned behaviour to investigate public attitudes toward marine microplastic pollution, finding that environmental awareness and perceived behavioral control significantly predicted consumers' intentions to reduce microplastic-generating product use.
Uncovering hidden determinants of millennial farmers’ intentions in running conservation agriculture: An application of the Norm Activation Model
Not relevant to microplastics — this study applies the Norm Activation Model to understand why millennial farmers in Central Java, Indonesia do or do not adopt conservation practices on degraded mountain agricultural land.
Analysis of Waste Separation Drivers in Urban Centers Using the Theory of Planned Behavior and the Norm Activation Model
Not relevant to microplastics — this study uses behavioral theory to identify what motivates residents of Balikpapan, Indonesia to separate household waste, finding that accessible facilities and past behavior are the strongest drivers, with no direct connection to microplastic research.
Assessing the Community Perception in San Jose, Occidental Mindoro, of Proper Waste Disposal: A Structural Equation Modeling Approach
Researchers surveyed residents of San Jose, Occidental Mindoro in the Philippines to understand what factors influence proper waste disposal behavior. Using structural equation modeling, they found that attitudes, social norms, and perceived behavioral control all significantly predicted waste disposal practices. The study suggests that community education campaigns targeting these psychological factors could improve waste management outcomes in the area.
Theory of planned behavior to analyze students’ intentions in consuming tap water
This study found that Indonesian students largely preferred tap water over bottled water, with the theory of planned behavior identifying perceived safety, environmental concern, and habit as key drivers of tap water consumption.
Determinants of Finnish consumers’ purchase intention for eco-friendly jute bags as an alternative to plastic
Researchers examined the determinants of Finnish consumers' purchase intention for eco-friendly jute bags as an alternative to single-use plastics, applying the Theory of Planned Behavior and finding that environmental concern, perceived consumer effectiveness, and subjective norms significantly influence purchasing decisions.
Microplastics in personal care products: Exploring public intention of usage by extending the theory of planned behaviour
Researchers applied an extended theory of planned behavior to understand public attitudes toward using personal care products containing microplastic beads. The study found that environmental awareness, health concerns, and social norms significantly influenced consumers' intentions to reduce their use of products containing microplastics.
Effect Of Environmental Concern, Attitude, Subjective Norms, Perceived Behavioral Control And Availability On Purchase Of Green Skincare Products With Intention To Purchase As A Mediation Variable
Researchers found that environmental concern, attitude, and perceived behavioral control positively influenced consumers' intention to purchase green skincare products in Jakarta, with purchase intention serving as a significant mediator between these factors and actual buying behavior.
Analysis of Factors of Single-Use Plastic Avoidance Behavior for Environmental Sustainability in China
A structural equation modeling study of 421 Chinese respondents found that attitude, perceived behavioral control, and policy intervention significantly influenced single-use plastic avoidance behavior, mediated by behavioral intentions and plastic-related environmental concerns.
Exploring Community Resilience: The Joint Roles of Environmental Knowledge and Risk Perception in Pro-Environmental Behavior
A study examining pro-environmental behavior in community settings found that environmental knowledge and risk perception jointly moderated the gap between environmental intentions and actions, with their combined effect stronger than either variable alone in promoting both private and public pro-environmental behaviors.
Mediating and Moderating Factors Affecting Pro-environmental Decision-Making: A Spanish Study
Researchers investigated the mediating role of perceived responsibility and the moderating role of political ideology on pro-environmental decision-making in a Spanish population. The study found that perceived responsibility partially mediated the relationship between environmental concern and pro-environmental behavior, with political orientation moderating the strength of these effects.
Machine Learning Methods Analysis of Preceding Factors Affecting Behavioral Intentions to Purchase Reduced Plastic Products
Researchers applied machine learning to analyze factors preceding behavioral intentions related to environmental sustainability, using survey data and ML models to identify the most predictive variables. The ML approach outperformed conventional regression in capturing non-linear relationships between attitudes, norms, and behavioral intent toward pro-environmental actions.
Determinants of Green Purchase Intention for Personal Care Products: An Extended TPB Study in Colombo, Sri Lanka
Researchers surveyed 385 urban consumers in Colombo, Sri Lanka to understand what drives green purchasing intentions for personal care products using an extended Theory of Planned Behavior model.
