Abstract

This survey study investigated the relationship between environmental locus of control (ELOC), beliefs about government and industry environmental responsibility, and pro-environmental behaviors (PEBs). A significant interaction suggested individuals with high internal ELOC and low government/industry responsibility report more PEBs than individuals with high internal ELOC and high government/industry responsibility.
