环境认知与环境情感对于绿色开采的影响

Effect of environment cognition and environment emotion on green mining behavior

煤炭企业对于环境问题的认知是实现其绿色开采的基础,但有时即便具备了环境认知,并不意味着绿色开采行为一定会发生。由此,本研究从环境情感的角度对这一问题进行解释,并在此基础上探索环境认知、环境情感以及煤炭企业绿色开采行为之间的关系。在以往研究的基础上建立了环境认知、环境情感对于煤炭企业绿色开采行为的影响机制理论模型,基于325份样本,通过结构方程路径系数与中介效果验证了模型中各变量之间直接和间接的影响关系。结果显示:煤炭企业的环境认知能够显著的激发其环境情感,这里的环境情感既包括正向的、积极的环境情感,又包括负向的、消极的环境情感。同时,环境情感又能够进一步促进实际绿色开采行为的发生。结论明确了环境认知、环境情感、绿色开采行为之间的关系,并且说明环境情感是连接环境认知与个体内在行为规范的中介和纽带,是煤炭企业绿色开采行为能够实现的关键因素。相对于正向的、积极的环境情感而言,负面的消极的环境情感对于绿色开采行为的影响作用更大。

The cognition of coal enterprises regarding to environmental problems is the foundation of the implementation of green mining.However even with environmental cognition,green mining behaviors is not guaranteed.This issue was analyzed from the aspect of emotional factors.Based on this framework,the paper interpreted the relationship between cognitive variables,emotional variables and green mining behavior.On the basis of previous studies,a theoretical model has been established in order to study the influence of these factors.Based on the results that were acquired from 325 sample surveys,the direct and indirect influencial relationship among variables were verified in the model with structural equation path coefficient and mediation effect.The empirical results showed that the coal enterprises’perception of environment(including positive environmental emotion and negative environmental emotion)can activate their emotion for green mining and then further promote the application of green mining technology.In the conclusion,the relationship between environmental cognition,environmental emotion and green mining behavior are clarified.Besides,it shows that environmental emotion(which is the key factor to realize green mining behavior)is the mediation between environmental cognition and individual behavioral norms.Negative environmental emotions have more impact on green mining behavior comparing with positive environmental emotion.
