摘要

摘要目的先前的研究已经证明，在不同的社会中，毅力（对长期目标表现出热情和毅力的倾向）对教育和心理健康有好处。然而，关于砂砾的尺寸如何与有利于环境的结果相关的研究有限。本研究旨在通过横断面设计探讨毅力维度（即努力的毅力和兴趣的一致性）与环境热情、环境友好行为和环境意识之间的关系。方法以700名菲律宾大学生为样本，对其毅力、环保意识、环保热情和环保行为进行自我报告调查。通过最大似然估计的结构方程建模用于检验砂砾和环保结果之间的假设联系。结果砂砾的两个维度都与所有有利于环境的结果相关。一致性与环境热情的联系更紧密，而毅力与环境友好行为和环境意识的联系更密切。结论研究结果表明，支持对长期目标的热情和毅力具有生态效益。关键点关于这个话题的已知情况：（1）先前的研究表明，毅力可以预测学业成功和幸福感。（2）研究还表明，毅力与最佳表现和心理结果之间有着更紧密的联系。（3）有证据表明，毅力与自我调节之间存在着怎样的关系。该主题补充道：（1）本研究表明，努力的毅力和兴趣的一致性都能积极预测环境热情、环境友好行为和环境意识。（2）尽管一致性似乎与环境热情有着更强烈的联系，但毅力与环境友好行为以及环境意识有着更密切的联系。（3）这些发现为砂砾的生态效益提供了初步证据。

The ecological benefits of staying gritty: grit dimensions are associated with pro-environmental passion, awareness, and behaviours

ABSTRACT Objectives Prior studies have demonstrated the educational and mental health benefits of grit — disposition to show passion and perseverance for long term goals — in different societies. However, there is limited research on how grit's dimensions relate to pro-environmental outcomes. This study aims to explore the associations of grit's dimensions (i.e., perseverance of effort and consistency of interests) with environmental passion, environmentally friendly behaviors, and environmental awareness via a cross-sectional design. Method A sample of 700 Filipino undergraduate students completed a self-reported survey on grit, environmental awareness, environmental passion, and pro-environmental behaviors. Structural equation modeling via maximum likelihood estimation was used to examine the hypothesized links among grit and pro-environmental outcomes. Results Both dimensions of grit were associated with all pro-environmental outcomes. Whereas consistency was more strongly linked to environmental passion, perseverance was more strongly related to environmentally friendly behaviors as well as environmental awareness. Conclusions Results point to the ecological benefits of espousing passion and perseverance for long-term goals. KEY POINTS What is already known about this topic: (1) Prior research shows that grit predicts academic success and well-being outcomes. (2) Studies also demonstrated that perseverance had more robust associations with optimal performance and psychological outcomes. (3) There is evidence showing how grit relates to self-regulation. What this topic adds: (1) This study demonstrated that both perseverance of effort and consistency of interests positively predicted environmental passion, environmentally friendly behaviors, and environmental awareness. (2) Whereas consistency appears to be more strongly linked to environmental passion, perseverance was more strongly related to environmentally friendly behaviors as well as environmental awareness. (3) These findings offered preliminary evidence regarding the ecological benefits of grit.
