向可持续社会系统的转变需要个人和集体的亲环境行为。在这项研究中，我们量化了促进或阻碍围绕使用可再生能源的集体亲环境行为的因素的影响。对日本高中生和大学生进行网络问卷调查，对参与集体行为意愿强或弱的群体和社区活动经验丰富或缺乏的群体进行协方差结构分析。我们的结果表明，相信通过个人努力可以避免全球环境危机的信念与集体行为意图负相关。我们还发现，旨在增强对社区和社会规范依恋的环境教育对集体行为意向较弱的青少年有效，而对集体行为意向较强的青少年则不有效。对于具有强烈集体行为意向的青年来说，学习社区参与的实际方法并提高对集体亲环境行为重要性的认识将更加有效。
Abstract The transformation to sustainable social systems requires both individual and collective pro-environmental behaviors. In this study, we quantified the impacts of factors that promote or impede collective pro-environmental behaviors around the use of renewable energy. An online questionnaire was completed by Japanese high school and college students, and covariance structure analysis was performed on groups with strong or weak intention to participate in collective behaviors and groups with rich or little experience with community activities. Our results revealed that the belief that a global environmental crisis can be avoided by individual efforts was negatively related to collective behavioral intention. We also found that environmental education that aimed to enhance attachment to community and social norms, would be effective for the youth with weak collective behavioral intention, but not so for youth with strong collective behavioral intention. It would be more effective for youth with strong collective behavioral intention to learn the practical approaches for community participation and raise awareness of the perceived importance of collective pro-environmental behaviors.
