摘要

本研究旨在探討地方依附對環境態度、環境行為之影響。研究施測之對象為於2015年6月，參加二日環境教育課程之學員。藉由問卷調查，共回收53份有效樣本。本研究資料以Smart PLS 3.2.7進行PLS結構方程模型 (PLS-SEM)分析。部分相關研究認為地方依附會直接影響環境行為，然而，本研究成果顯示：地方依附需透過環境態度之中介效果，方能間接影響環境行為。環境態度之構面在本驗證模型中，扮演完全中介之角色。其意味儘管個人擁有強烈之地方依附，仍須藉由透過高度正向環境態度之作用，以產生負責任環境行為。本研究之假設模型獲得驗證。此外，模型中三個構面之題項亦具有良好信度，且有良好之收斂與區別效度。

The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of place attachment on environmental attitudes and environmental behaviors. Some previous studies have indicated that place attachment may directly influence environmental behavior. The results of this research model, however, reveal that place attachment may only indirectly influence environmental behavior thought the function of behavioral attitude. Environmental attitude plays the role of full mediator in this model. The implication of this finding suggests that, for individuals attaching with the environments, pro-environmental attitudes function as an essential factor to trigger positive environmental behavior. Data collection was conducted via a questionnaire survey, and the subjects were individuals who participated in the 2-day environmental education courses in June 2015. A total of 53 valid samples were collected. Due to the limitation of the small sample size, PLS-SEM was applied to data analysis with the Smart PLS 3.2.7 package. The proposed hypothesized structural model of this study was verified, and all three measurement models present favorable reliability, convergence validity and discriminant validity.
