摘要:The aim of this paper is to explain the ecological behavior of individuals. In particular, the role that knowledge about the environment, values and intentions played in the realization of an ecological behavior has been analyzed. Previously, the measurement scales of each construct have been validated. A structural equation modeling was used to a sample of 497 individuals. The tested model explained 87 per cent of the variance of ecological behavior. Our results show that knowledge and values are able to generate, indirectly, environmental actions, mediated by intentions, while intentions have a direct influence on behavior.
