我国公民环保意识影响因素研究综述

Research Review on the Factors Influencing Environmental Awareness of Citizens in China

公民的环保意识通过对公民环保行为的支配而在预防环境污染方面发挥积极作用。当前,我国公民环保意识影响因素方面的研究较少。以往的研究大都承认年龄、性别、受教育水平和收入对公民环保意识的影响,只有极少数研究得出了相反的结论,认为上述因素与公民的环保意识并不相关。研究者们对于环保意识的含义有着不同的理解,并基于各自的理解采用了不同的评价指标和评价标准,这是导致研究结论出现分歧的可能原因。有关公民环保意识影响因素的以往研究大多停留于对调查数据的表面描述,今后的研究更应着眼于在实证研究基础之上就如何提高我国公民的环保意识提出有针对性的建议。

It is well recognized that environmental awareness of citizens （EAC） plays a positive role for the prevention of environmental pollution. Most of current researches have reached the conclusion that age, gender, income level and level of education are influencing factors to EAC; meanwhile some researchers hold contrary opinion. Possible reasons caused this situation may be different understanding of the researchers on the meaning of EAC and their respective research methods adopted therefore. A serious problem exists in current researches on EAC is that the researchers are usually satisfied with a simple description to the survey data. So, struggling to propose some targeted policy suggestions should be a focus of future studies on this topic.
