Tin recycling: Awareness, comprehension, attitude, intention and behavior

Abstract Which factors inhibit or facilitate participation in a tin-recycling program? In this study three theoretical points of view are integrated in a slepwise model of participation: (a) attitude change through communication, (b) the relationships between belief. attitude, intention and behavior, and (c) acceptance of responsibility. The variables in the model were measured by means of mailed questionnaires completed by 586 female inhabitants of a middle-sized town in The Netherlands. The results confirm the model. Facilitating and inhibiting factors are presented in detail. The theoretical points of view are discussed and practical recommendations are given to increase and facilitate participation in the recycling program.
