摘要

效能信念是人类行为的重要决定因素。根据社会认知理论，集体效能感与个人自我效能感密切相关，而个人自我效能感又受到社会经济地位（SES）等社会结构因素的影响。令人惊讶的是，这些变量之间的关系在有关环境问题的文献中很少受到关注。在社会认知理论的框架下，本研究旨在调查社会经济地位是否直接影响亲环境行为，以及是否通过自我效能感和集体效能感间接影响气候变化减缓行为。这项在线横断面研究采用配额抽样的方式进行，共有 1075 名参与者（51.9% 为女性），年龄在 18-79 岁之间。参与者通过客观和主观测量方法报告了他们的社会经济地位、对自身和集体在减缓气候变化方面的效能的看法，以及他们支持环保行为的频率。结构方程模型显示，自我效能和集体效能在社会经济地位（客观和主观）与亲环境行为之间的串联中介效应模型显示出良好的模型拟合效果。正如预期的那样，客观和主观 SES 对亲环境行为没有直接影响。令人惊讶的是，客观和主观社会经济地位都没有对亲环境行为产生间接影响（通过效能信念）。然而，自我效能感和集体效能感都与亲环境行为有关。这些发现对于制定旨在加强亲环境行为的策略具有实际意义。

Relationship between Socioeconomic Status and Pro-Environmental Behavior: The Role of Efficacy Beliefs

Efficacy beliefs are important determinants of human behavior. In the context of social cognitive theory, the perception of collective efficacy is closely related to the individual perception of self-efficacy, which is influenced by socio-structural factors such as socioeconomic status (SES). Surprisingly, the relationship between these variables has received little attention in the literature on environmental issues. Within the framework of social cognitive theory, the aim of this study was to investigate whether SES has a direct effect on pro-environmental behavior and whether it has an indirect effect via perceptions of self-efficacy and collective efficacy, in relation to climate change mitigation behavior. An online cross-sectional study was conducted using a quota sample of 1075 participants (51.9% women) aged 18–79 years. Participants reported their SES using objective and subjective measures, perceptions of their own and collective efficacy in mitigating climate change, and the frequency of their pro-environmental behaviors. Structural equation modeling revealed that the model with serial mediation effects of self-efficacy and collective efficacy between SES (both objective and subjective) and pro-environmental behaviors showed a good model fit. As expected, both objective and subjective SES had no direct effect on pro-environmental behavior. Surprisingly, neither objective nor subjective SES had an indirect effect (via efficacy beliefs) on pro-environmental behavior. However, both self-efficacy and collective efficacy were associated with pro-environmental behavior. These findings have practical implications for the development of strategies aimed at enhancing pro-environmental behavior.

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.
