摘要

以往的生态行为研究只关注个人因素，从而忽视了环境因素对生态行为的影响。此外，价值-信念-规范理论中信念部分的复杂性也受到批评。因此，本研究旨在调查环境因素的影响，并评估生态信念对节能家电购买的中介作用。本研究对 592 名马来西亚消费者进行了问卷调查。研究采用偏最小二乘法对数据进行分析，并对研究假设进行检验。研究结果表明，环境因素对生态信念和生态行为都有积极影响；生态信念与生态行为呈正相关。此外，生态信念对环境因素和生态行为之间的关系起着中介作用。这一整体研究框架有助于在节能家电购买的背景下，对环境因素和个人信念的现有知识进行阐述。

The influence of environmental factors on ecological beliefs and ecological behaviour of energy-efficient appliance purchase

Previous ecological behaviour studies have focused on personal factors only, and thus ignored the impact of environmental factors on ecological behaviour. In addition, there are criticism on the complexity of belief component in the value-belief-norm theory. Hence, this study aims to investigate the effect of environmental factors and to assess the mediating role of ecological beliefs on energy-efficient appliance purchasing. This study utilised a questionnaire survey among 592 Malaysian consumers. The partial least squares technique was utilised to analyse the data and to test the study hypotheses. The findings show that environmental factors have a positive influence on both ecological beliefs and ecological behaviour; ecological beliefs are positively related to ecological behaviour. Additionally, ecological beliefs mediate the relationship between environmental factors and ecological behaviour. This holistic research framework helps to elaborate on the existing knowledge of environmental factors and an individual’s belief, in the context of energy-efficient appliance purchase.

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
