Role of Habit in Household Waste Recycling Behavior: Evidence from an Emerging Country
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper explores the inter-relationship between cognitive and non-cognitive factors that form an individual's household recycling behavior.Habit, a noncognitive factor, is combined as an additional construct with the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB).Data was collected from 467 eco-friendly consumers residing in economically emerging country-Bangladesh and analyzed using the partial least square-based structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM).Result showed significant direct impact of individual's habit and perceived behavioral control (PBC) on actual recycling behavior of household waste.When forming recycling intention, individual's habit was found to be more dominant compared to the attitude, subjective norms and PBC.In addition, it was found that habit is significantly impacted by the PBC.However, the moderating role of habit towards the linkage of recycling intention to actual behavior was found insignificant.The paper provides significant contribution for the practitioners and policy makers to focus on forming individual habits to promote sustainable recycling behavior from an emerging country context.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
