Reduce reuse recycle behavioural intention model in higher education institution accommodation

The issues of solid waste management in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) has become more problematic to facilities management units, thus the potential adverse effect has forced a total shift to deal with the situations in our academic environment, as such it needs the potentials to predict the...

For this reasons, three related objectives were prompted: To assess the 3Rs behavioral intentions indicators based on Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) conceptual model. To analyze the relationship between TPB construct and 3Rs behavioral intentions indicators. To develop and validate 3Rs behavioral intentions model for higher educational institution’s hostel accommodation. To achieve these objectives, two methodologies were employed which involved literature review, and questionnaire survey. The underpinning theory used in this study is the theory of planned behavior (TPB) which possess the three predictors: attitude, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control to predict the 3Rs behavioral intentions. The survey method was used to collect data from the HEIs hostel accommodations within Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM), 544 questionnaires was successfully collected from the student respondents in 13 residential colleges. Subsequently, after validating the data, AMOS 22.0 was used to analyze the TPB constructs, for more parsimonious structural equation model (SEM) fit using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Multiple regression analysis (MRA) was later run using SPSS 22.0. The results indicates that all the three predictors are significantly positive and influential thus it affects the students’ behavioral intentions to engage in the 3Rs practice. The behavioral intentions which was influenced by these three TPB predictors, has become the important factors for students to actively engage in 3Rs practice. The study clearly showed that there was a potential for significantly improving the 3Rs behavioral intentions amongst the HEIs students, to engage in the reduce reuse and recycle (3Rs) practice within HEIs accommodations. 2015-01 Thesis http://eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/77678/ http://eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/77678/1/JibrilDanazimiJibrilPFGHT2015.pdf application/pdf en public http://dms.library.utm.my:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:96585 phd doctoral Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Faculty of Geoinformation and real estate Faculty of Geoinformation and real estate
