“…The only study in the tourism field (Wu & Geng, 2020) is in line with the conclusions of Ming et al (2022), as visitors' intentions to implement pro-environmental behaviors were inhibited by high levels of air pollution perceived at the destination. This might be explained by the negative emotions resulting from personal exposure to polluted air (Gao et al, 2021;Wu & Geng, 2020).…”

“…Similarly, Sheng et al (2020) concluded that perceiving poor AQ improves one's intention to contribute to environmental protection. Contrary to these findings, Ming et al (2022) concluded that the perception of air pollution decreases people's pro‐environmental behavioral intention, particularly their propensity to purchase pro‐environmental products, engage in recycling practices, opt for sustainable travels, or donate to environmental organizations. This is partially justified by the negative effects of air pollution on an individual's mood, which decrease their attention and willingness toward environmental protection.…”

“…The literature argues that the adoption of pro‐environmental behaviors is induced by people's perception of AQ conditions (Gu et al, 2015; Jokar et al, 2020; Ming et al, 2022; Sheng et al, 2020; Wu & Geng, 2020). However, no unanimity was found among these studies.…”

Due to the growing awareness concerning environmental problems, specifically air pollution, it is crucial to understand the relationship between perceptions of air quality and the pro‐environmental behaviors of visitors. This study segments visitors based on self‐reported pro‐environmental behaviors. A survey was carried out in Portugal (N = 602). Three clusters with different pro‐environmental profiles emerged: eco‐transportation seekers; environmentally committed visitors; and environmentally insensitive visitors. Differences were detected among the clusters regarding pro‐environmental behaviors at home, environmental attitudes, perception of the destination air quality, and perception of the impact of air quality on health, as well as sociodemographic and travel characteristics.

“…People are less likely to buy eco-friendly products and engage in sustainable behaviors when exposed to air polluteon. Air pollution induces negative emotions and inhibits people's willingness to engage in PEB [18]. Policy tools have an impact on PEB [19][20][21].…”

Rural residents’ pro-environmental behavior plays a critical role in rural environmental governance. This paper examines how the perception of government environmental information disclosure (EID) can promote rural residents’ pro-environmental behavior (PEB) using a questionnaire survey. Using Zhejiang province of China as a case study, we designed a four-stage mixed sampling method, which yielded 783 valid responses. We used ordinary least squares (OLS), an ordinal logit model and a mediation effect model to draw our conclusions. The results indicated that the EID had a positive impact on the PEB of rural residents. It is also evident that personal environmental concerns (PECs) play a partially mediating role between EID and PEB. Moreover, the impact of EID on PEB is heterogeneous in terms of residents’ age and workplace. This research contributes to insights into the promotion of guiding rural residents’ PEB and improving ecological environment management.

“…Based on the empirical evidence, Clifford et al (2016) concluded that there is a limited number of studies that include the impact of different pollution indices on neurodevelopment. That is why the current study emphasizes the impact of air pollution on the employee’s job performance which eventually affects their productivity ( Ming et al, 2022 ).…”

Impact of ambient air pollution on outdoor employees’ performance: Mediating role of anxiety

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This paper aims to examine the direct and indirect impact of ambient air pollution (AAP) on employees’ performance. This study has used cross sectional survey design to collect the data from the outdoor employees of the pharmaceutical industry of Pakistan. The data were collected in time lags from 299. Partial least squares- structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) approach was applied to analyze the data. The results show that AAP has a significant negative impact on the employees’ performance, and anxiety partially mediates the association between AAP and employees’ performance. This study reveals that AAP brings anxiety among outdoor employees, which in turn decreases their working performance. The implications, limitations, and future research directions are presented in the last section of this study.
