摘要

. 这项研究调查了尼日利亚东南部城市/半城市定居者对人与自然环境、气候变化之间共生关系的认识及其对可持续环境行为和可持续发展的影响。本研究以环境责任行为(ERB)模式为指导,了解市民的环境和生态知识程度,以及支持环境可持续发展的行为。本研究采用问卷调查的方法,随机抽取了该地区16个聚落的640名18岁以上的受访者进行研究。收集的数据通过描述性和推断性统计工具进行分析,以检验研究中实质性变量之间的关系。从研究结果来看,社会生态知识的正向预测因子包括公共媒体环境启蒙(p < .000)、公共机构质量(p < .000)和环境公民(p < .000)。固体废物管理知识(p < 0.01)与亲环境行为呈正相关。全球气候变化意识的正向预测因子包括自然环境知识、公共媒体对环境的启蒙和在居住地的停留时间(p < .000)。

SOCIAL ECOLOGY, CLIMATE CHANGE AND ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY AMONG URBAN/SEMIURBAN SETTLEMENTS IN SOUTHEAST NIGERIA: PROBING ENVIRONMENTALLY RESPONSIBLE BEHAVIOUR AND COMMUNITY – SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
. This study examined knowledge of symbiotic relationship between man and natural environment, climate change and their implications to sustainable environmental behaviour and sustainable development among the urban/semi urban settlers in southeast Nigeria. The study was guided by Environmentally Responsible Behaviour (ERB) model, to understand the extent of environmental and ecological knowledge, and pro environmental sustainability behaviour among the citizens. 640 respondents (18+) from 16 settlements across the region were randomly selected for the study, while survey design was adopted for the study with the aid of questionnaire instrument. The data collected were analysed with aid of descriptive and inferential statistics tools for testing the relationship of substantive variables in the study. From the findings of the study, positive predictors of knowledge of social ecology included public media enlightenment on environment (p < .000), public institution quality (p < .000) and environmental citizenship (p < .000). Knowledge of solid waste management (p < 0.01) positively correlate with pro environmental behaviour. Positive predictors of global climate change awareness include knowledge of the natural environment, public media enlightenment on environment and duration in the place of residence (p < .000).
