This study moves toward a better understanding of the mechanisms behind changing people’s recycling behavior at work by mapping out which pathways and variables change in as triggered interventions. A questionnaire was designed based on theory planned behaviour, norm-activation model, habits, comprehensive action determination model (CADM). The data collected two rounds: before intervention after three-month pilot period with implemented interventions using sample n = 1269 students...

Energy efficiency upgrades of privately owned homes like adding to the insulation layers in walls, roof or floor, replacing windows with more efficiently insulated versions can contribute significantly reducing energy impact building sector and thus also CO2 footprint a household. However, even countries Norway that have rather high rate renovation, are not always integrated into such refurbishment project. This study tests which structural internal psychological barriers hinder drivers...

The conception that undertaking a certain pro-environmental behaviour may encourage people to adopt other behaviours is appealing, but the evidence inconsistent. Based on literature, we propose relative strength of relevant personal norms and compensatory beliefs following an initial are decisive for whether more, less, or equally likely perform behaviours. Using survey data (N = 217) collected in Norway among 'to-be owners' battery electric vehicles recent owners plug-in hybrid regarding...

Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) is a technology which enables electric vehicles (EVs) to transfer electricity back the power network. The V2G allows energy systems balance renewable energy, thus contributing climate change alleviation. Employing self-report online survey among Norwegian car users (n = 929) in November 2021, study aims investigate how perceptions and beliefs towards system motivate both EV non-EV (combustion engine owners as potential future users) utilise future. Understanding...

The current study aimed to examine attitudinal factors underlying the use of public transport in winter among university students. A self-administered questionnaire survey was conducted 441 students at two largest campuses Trondheim, Norway. Multiple Indicators Causes (MIMIC) modelling approach used test relationships constructs using an extended version theory planned behaviour hypothesized predict during winter. Analyses revealed strong effects social-normative influence and perceived...

Introduction To achieve substantial energy efficiency improvements in the privately owned building stock, it is important to communicate with potential renovators at right point time and provide them targeted information strengthen their renovation ambitions. The European Union recommends using one-stop-shops (OSSs), which support throughout whole process, from planning acquisition of funding, implementation, evaluation as a measure remove unnecessary barriers. Methods For this paper, we...
