Abstract

The proper solid waste recycling process starts at the houses with the attendance of the individuals. The presented study includes comprehensive research on the individuals’ shopping and waste generation behaviors, awareness of waste management issues, readiness and willingness for source separation, and their self-evaluation and self-annoyance about waste generation. The current study was conducted by administering a detailed questionnaire to 300 people in Zmir, Türkiye's third largest city. The relationships between the answers given and the main factors affecting waste production were determined statistically. Principal component analysis (PCA) identified the key drivers of public behavior associated with waste generation and separation at the source. Through environmental sensitivity, including proper waste management behaviors, age is discovered to be a significant factor. Family phenomena, including stable life and family budgets (32.58%), awareness of people about their inappropriate and disproportionate behaviors towards consumption and waste generation (21.28%), and the impositions of urban life (9.37%) were found to be the major factors influencing waste management habits.

生活垃圾管理行为的驱动因素:以土耳其伊兹密尔市为例

适当的固体废物回收过程从家庭开始，由个人参与。本研究包括对个人购物与垃圾产生行为、对垃圾管理问题的认识、对垃圾源分离的准备与意愿、对垃圾产生的自我评价与自我烦恼进行综合研究。目前的研究是通过对基耶第三大城市兹米尔的300人进行详细的问卷调查进行的。给出的答案与影响废物产生的主要因素之间的关系进行了统计确定。主成分分析(PCA)确定了与废物产生和源头分类有关的公众行为的关键驱动因素。通过环境敏感性，包括适当的废物管理行为，发现年龄是一个重要因素。家庭现象，包括稳定的生活和家庭预算(32.58%)，人们对消费和废物产生的不当和不成比例行为的认识(21.28%)，以及城市生活的强加(9.37%)是影响废物管理习惯的主要因素。
