|a A major argument among scholars has been whether environmental education and attitudes plays a significant role in improving environmentally responsible behavior (ERB). However, more work needs to be done in this field, as the research in this area is greatly lacking (Mobley 2009). In this study, it was hypothesized that exposure to environmental education and environmentally related information would be positively associated with ERB and would have a higher effect on ERB than gender and political orientation. A 37 question survey was utilized to quantitatively measure ERB. 51 participants successfully filled out the surveys. Results demonstrate that there is a significant difference (p=0.039) in ERB between participants who reported taking a course that covered environmental issues and those who had not. There is also a significant difference in exposure to environmentally related information between those who had taken a course and those who had not, with those who had taken a course showing a significantly higher ERI. Additionally, those who had an ERI score above the average score of the participants attained a significantly higher ERB score. This research holds many implications, including some for the future direction of environmental education. |
