摘要

环境风险会造成不同程度的负面影响,可分为微观层面的个人影响和宏观层面的社会和生态影响。尽管大量研究表明,面对环境风险,个人会采取行动保护环境,但这种行为的内在机制却没有得到足够的关注,尤其是对于直接由环境条件产生的负面影响。本研究旨在从风险管理的角度出发,探讨在应对各种环境风险的不利后果时,人们的环保意识和行为之间存在的差异。利用 2021 年中国社会综合调查(CGSS)的数据,我们将环境风险的负面影响分为两类:个人层面和社区层面。我们研究了哪些具体的负面影响会促使个人培养环境意识并参与环保行为。我们的研究结果表明,在面对个人层面的直接和紧急负面影响时,个人更有可能采取行动。相反,对于长期的、看似微小的社区层面的环境风险,他们则不太愿意采取行动。这些见解加深了我们对环境风险与亲环境行为之间的心理机制的理解,并强调了应对当前可能并不严重的负面影响的重要性。

When do individuals take action to protect the environment?——Exploring the mediating effects of negative impacts of environmental risk
Environmental risks can result in varying degrees of negative impacts, which can be categorized into micro-level individual impacts and macro-level social and ecological impacts. While extensive research has shown that individuals take actions to protect the environment in the face of environmental risks, the mechanisms underlying this behavior have received insufficient attention, particularly regarding the negative impacts stemming directly from environmental conditions. This study aims to examine the discrepancies in pro-environmental awareness and behavior in response to adverse consequences of diverse environmental risks from a risk management perspective. Utilizing data from the 2021 Chinese General Social Survey (CGSS), we classified the negative impacts of environmental risks into two categories: individual and community levels. We investigated which specific negative impacts motivate individuals to develop environmental awareness and engage in pro-environmental behaviors. Our findings reveal that individuals are more likely to take action when faced with immediate and urgent individual-level negative impacts. Conversely, they are less inclined to act in response to long-term and seemingly minor community-level environmental risks. These insights enhance our understanding of the psychological mechanisms linking environmental risks to pro-environmental behaviors and underscore the importance of addressing negative impacts that may not appear serious in the present.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Environmental Psychology is the premier journal in the field, serving individuals in a wide range of disciplines who have an interest in the scientific study of the transactions and interrelationships between people and their surroundings (including built, social, natural and virtual environments, the use and abuse of nature and natural resources, and sustainability-related behavior). The journal publishes internationally contributed empirical studies and reviews of research on these topics that advance new insights. As an important forum for the field, the journal publishes some of the most influential papers in the discipline that reflect the scientific development of environmental psychology. Contributions on theoretical, methodological, and practical aspects of all human-environment interactions are welcome, along with innovative or interdisciplinary approaches that have a psychological emphasis. Research areas include: •Psychological and behavioral aspects of people and nature •Cognitive mapping, spatial cognition and wayfinding •Ecological consequences of human actions •Theories of place, place attachment, and place identity •Environmental risks and hazards: perception, behavior, and management •Perception and evaluation of buildings and natural landscapes •Effects of physical and natural settings on human cognition and health •Theories of proenvironmental behavior, norms, attitudes, and personality •Psychology of sustainability and climate change •Psychological aspects of resource management and crises •Social use of space: crowding, privacy, territoriality, personal space •Design of, and experiences related to, the physical aspects of workplaces, schools, residences, public buildings and public space
