Modeling environmentally responsible behaviors among rural women in the forested regions in Iran
Abstract
Natural resources in general and forest resources in particular have been exposed to the risk of extensive degradation in recent years, but the solution for their conservation lies in the cooperation of the entire society, especially rural women. There is a close and relationship between natural resources marginalized rural women living close to forests in developing countries. However, the relevant literature has ignored the conservative and eco-friendly behaviors of rural women. This study mainly aimed to discover the factors determining forest conservation behaviors among rural women. The research used the protection motivation theory (PMT) as its framework to study the factors underpinning forest conservation behaviors among rural women, using the questionnaire-based survey method and structural equation modeling (SEM). The statistical population included all rural women older than 15 years living at the margin of the Zagros forests in Lorestan province, western Iran. Data analysis showed that all PMT constructs had a significant effect on forest conservation behaviors and accounted for 68.7% of the total variance in the factors. Self-efficacy was the most important factor influencing forest conservation behaviors. Accordingly, policymakers can promote conservation behaviors for the natural resources and environment by emphasizing self-efficacy.

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.
