Ecoscale: A scale for the measurement of environmentally responsible consumers
Abstract
The authors develop a 31‐item instrument (ECOSCALE) for the assessment of environmental responsibility. Discussion of the conceptualization and operational functions used in constructing and refining the multiple‐item scale to measure the construct environmental responsibility are described. Also presented is evidence that the scale has been validated through assessment of content validity, predictive validity, and construct validity. A final description of the theoretical uses of such a scale is provided. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

“Environmental responsibility refers to “a state in which a person expresses an intention to take action directed toward remediation of environmental problems—acting not as an individual consumer with his or her own economic interests, but through a citizen-consumer concept of societal-environmental well-being” [48].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
