Abstract:
This research adopted the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) to predict intention and behavior to avoid food waste. In a pilot study, behavioral, normative, and control beliefs were identified. In the main study, a TPB model extended with descriptive and moral norms was assessed using a two-wave design and applying SEM. The associations between beliefs and TPB constructs were analyzed by MIMIC models. Attitude, descriptive and moral norms, and perceived behavioral control were associated with intention to avoid food waste, which predicted behavior. Considering the most important beliefs in forming intentions has important implications for designing food waste prevention interventions.
摘要:
本研究采用计划行为理论(TPB)来预测避免食物浪费的意图和行为。在一项试点研究中,行为,规范性,并确定了控制信念。在主要研究中,使用两波设计并应用SEM评估了以描述性和道德规范扩展的TPB模型。通过MIMIC模型分析信念与TPB结构之间的关联。态度,描述性和道德规范,感知的行为控制与避免食物浪费的意图有关,预测行为。考虑形成意图的最重要信念对于设计食物浪费预防干预措施具有重要意义。
