Abstract | This research aims to investigate the factors influencing waste recycling behavior of Thai households and examine the role of responsibility as a moderator. The results of logistic regression analysis of 381 random samples in Bangkok indicated that attitude toward recycling, subjective norm of engaging communities, awareness of recycling benefit, perceived facility condition, perceived recycling skill, and degree of responsibility significantly influence household recycling intention. The moderating effects of responsibility were found on economic incentive and perceived recycling facility condition. Higher responsibility level tends to weaken the impacts of economic incentive and perceived facility condition on willingness to recycle of household. |
