| Popis: | When examining the way in which people relate to nature, many variables have been studied, given their influences and predictive power on certain behaviours that foster environmental care and protection. However, few studies have analysed the predictive capacity of environmental identity. Hence, the aim of this paper is to analyse the predictive capacity of this variable with regard to attitude, future behavioural intent and the frequency of glass recycling behaviour, when controlling the effects of variables with demonstrative predictive capacity, such as environmental variables. To this end, a sample of 154 students from the University of Granada was used. The results show that biospheric and egoistic values have significant effects. Once the effects of values are controlled, two of the dimensions of identity — appreciation of nature and environmentalism — also contribute significantly to predicting said attitudes, intents and behaviours. |
