“…Liebe et al 2011, Bernath and Roschewitz 2008, Guagnano et al 1994) and the TPB in a DCE relating to food-choice (Nocella et al 2012), the application of TPB and NAM to predict stated choices in a DCE survey in the environmental field is still very rare ). The present study thus responds to the recent call for more research in this area (López-Mosquera et al 2014). …”

“…They find that the components of both theories motivate respondents' intention to pay for conservation, although TPB provide greater explanatory power of WTP. López-Mosquera et al (2014) further extend the TPB to show that moral and personal norms affect both the attitude component of the TPB and stated WTP.…”

“…As many studies assessing TPB components find high and significant correlations between the TPB components (e.g. Karppinen 2005, Onwezen et al 2013, López-Mosquera et al 2014, care needs to be taken when interpreting outputs of choice models in the following subsections.…”

“…Therefore, in the past two decades, there has been a growing concentration of the influence of psychological variables on resident waste management behavior [7,8,23]. Furthermore, Bortoleto et al [26] undertook a detailed literature review and noted that three main psychological theories have been widely used by scholars when explaining the waste management behavior of individuals [27], namely the theory of reasoned action [28], the theory of planned behavior [29], and the norm action model [30]. However, these three theoretical models produced inconsistent results in the study of Davies et al [31].…”

Model of Chinese Household Kitchen Waste Separation Behavior: A Case Study in Beijing City

High participation rates by the public in authority projects are key in increasing resident recycling levels. Understanding waste separation behavior is crucial to achieving sustainable waste management within such household-based schemes. To identify the driving forces behind the seldom-discussed kitchen garbage separation behavior, five psychological factors, namely, attitude, perceived behavior control, subjective norms, moral norms, and responsibility denial, are established. Our data originate from a social study of Beijing citizens conducted in July 2013 (n = 362). Through structural equation modeling, we find that moral norms are consistently the most important predictor of household kitchen waste (KW) separation behavior. Subjective norms have a larger effect on such behavior than responsibility denial. Data analysis shows that perceived behavior control contributes significantly and independently to the explanation of such behavior. By contrast, attitude towards KW separation is found to be significantly negatively correlated with separation behavior. In conclusion, the model with direct and indirect effects of psychological factors explains 50.3% of the variance in household KW source separation behavior. Implications of the results for the promotion of household KW separation programs are discussed.

What makes businesses commit to nature conservation?

To halt the loss of biodiversity and ecosystem services, various actors including companies need to engage, but it is not yet clear what drives voluntary business commitments. We explore leverage points that might increase corporate action for conservation. We apply a structural equation model based on the theory of planned behaviour to analyse data from 618 German companies, collected through an online‐survey in 2019. We show that a favourable attitude, driven by perceived business relevance and benefit prospects, fosters engagement. Perceived difficulties, such as lacking finances and knowledge, hinder the engagement. Customers, employees and the general public are presently the only stakeholder groups that drive corporate conservation engagement. Nevertheless, the expectation levels of virtually all stakeholders were found to be quite low and as such inadequate for the ecological crisis we face. We discuss how political will and goal setting can encourage more widespread business support for the natural environment.
