本文考察了个体的道德规范和人口统计特征如何与标准的计划行为理论预测因子(态度、主观规范和感知行为控制)相互作用来解释循环意图(RI)。我们的数据来源于2013年秋季对希腊公民进行的一项实证研究(N=293)。通过结构方程模型，我们发现PBC始终是RI最重要的预测因子。道德规范对心理健康的影响大于态度，但主要是直接影响。相反，人口统计特征被发现是RI的无统计学意义的预测因子，与主观标准相似。(C)2014爱思唯尔B.V.保留所有权利。
This paper examines how an individual's moral norms and demographic characteristics interact with the standard 'Theory of Planned Behavior' predictors (Attitude; Subjective Norms; and Perceived Behavioral Control (PBC)) in explaining the intention to recycle (RI). Our data originate from an empirical research of Greek citizens conducted in Autumn 2013 (N= 293). Through structural equation modeling, we find that PBC is consistently the most important predictor of RI. Moral norms have a larger effect on RI than Attitude while their influence is primarily direct. On the contrary, demographic characteristics were found to be statistically non-significant predictors of RI, similarly to Subjective Norms. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
