Abstract

Managing mixed waste poses environmental challenges and source separation has been encouraged worldwide. By reviewing 279 relevant papers systematically on waste separation behavior, its definition, influencing factors, commonly applied theories, statistical models, and implications are presented in this paper. Firstly, the term waste separation behavior was defined compared to similar concepts. Taking account of the multi-level attributes of separation behavior, the determinants were divided into micro and macro factors. Among the micro factors, the factors with the most empirical evidence are norms, intention, convenience, and knowledge. Personality and affective evaluation are suggested to be included for future investigation. On the macro level, four factors are analyzed: policies, economy, culture, and market. Possible pathways for research and interventions are given to encourage relevant stakeholders to understand and promote waste separation behavior.

关于个体垃圾分类行为的系统文献综述
管理混合废物带来了环境挑战,全世界都鼓励进行源头分离。本文通过对279篇有关垃圾分类行为的相关论文的系统回顾,介绍了其定义、影响因素、常用理论、统计模型及其启示。首先,与类似概念相比,定义了废物分离行为这一术语。考虑到分离行为的多层次属性,将决定因素分为微观因素和宏观因素。在微观因素中,经验证据最多的因素是规范、意图、便利和知识。人格和情感评估被建议纳入未来的调查。在宏观层面上,分析了四个因素:政策、经济、文化和市场。提供了可能的研究和干预途径,以鼓励相关利益相关者了解和促进废物分离行为。
