目的-本研究的目的是更好地了解密歇根州立大学(MSU)学生和教职员工的知识状况，找出相关知识差距和对回收的误解，并就如何通过教育和外展解决这些差距和误解提供建议。设计/方法/方法-使用心理模型分析，将学生和教职员工拥有的知识现状与校园回收程序和机会的全面清单进行比较。研究结果-通过结合来自学生和教职员工的个人心理模型的数据，开发了一个整体心理模型，描述了受试者理解MSU特定回收概念的频率。这个复合模型，以及随之而来的统计分析，揭示了重要的差距-在学生和教师的一部分-在理解几个关键的回收概念，这是相关的电子产品。
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to develop a better understanding of the state of knowledge of students and faculty on the Michigan State University (MSU) campus; identify relevant gaps in knowledge and misconceptions about recycling; and provide recommendations regarding how these gaps and misconceptions may be addressed through education and outreach.Design/methodology/approach – Using mental models analysis, the current state of knowledge possessed by students and faculty was compared with a comprehensive inventory of on‐campus recycling procedures and opportunities.Findings – By combining data from individual mental models elicited from students and faculty members, an overall mental model that depicted the frequency with which subjects understood MSU‐specific recycling concepts was developed. This composite model, and the accompanying statistical analysis, revealed important gaps – on part of both students and faculty – in understanding for several key recycling concepts that are relevant to e...
