运用扎根理论构建了影响中国家电企业履行废弃产品回收责任的因素指标,以此为基础设计调查问卷和开展大样本调研,并通过验证性因子分析方法(CFA)对所提炼的关键因素进行了实证检验,系统揭示了其影响机理,提出了相应的对策建议。研究结果显示,废弃产品回收处置成本、企业环保意识、政策法规、消费者环保意识、消费者参与回收的行为是影响家电生产企业履行废弃产品回收责任的5个主要因素,其中政策法规因素起着主导作用,企业和消费者的环保意识及回收习惯在影响企业履行废弃产品回收责任的过程中扮演重要角色,而回收成本在5个因素中解释力度最小。

Employing grounded theory, this paper established the index system of influencing factors for the firm's implementation of e-waste take-back responsibility in China. The questionnaire was designed according to the index system and a large sample survey was conducted. Through applying the confirmatory factor analysis(CFA),this paper further verified the availability of these identified influencing factors empirically. The influencing mechanism on the implementation of e-waste take-back responsibility is given, and some policy implications are also provided. The research results show that there are five influencing factors for the implementation of e-waste take-back responsibility, namely the implementation cost, the producers' environmental protection awareness, laws and policies, green awareness of consumers and the willingness of the consumers' participation. Moreover, the factor of laws and policies plays the most important role among these factors. The effects of environmental protection awareness and recovery habit could also attach great importance. The recovery cost has the least effect on the implementation of e-waste take-back responsibility.
