Understanding Consumer Recycling Behavior: Combining the Theory of Planned Behavior and the Norm Activation Model
Abstract
This study proposed and tested a comprehensive model of the intention to recycle in which the norm activation model and the theory of planned behavior were combined. Data on consumer intention to recycle were collected from a panel of U.S. consumers. The final sample consisted of 421 participants. Structural equation modeling was employed to test the proposed model. The results support the hypotheses in that personal norms (from the norm activation model) together with attitude and perceived behavioral control (from the theory of planned behavior) influence the intention to recycle. In addition, subjective norms (from the theory of planned behavior) influenced the intention to recycle indirectly through attitude, personal norms, and perceived behavioral control. Also, awareness of consequences (from the norm activation model) influenced intention to recycle indirectly through attitude, subjective norms, and personal norms.

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.
