Understanding Residential Energy Conservation through Attitudes and Beliefs

Marilyn A Brown and Susan M Macey

Environment and Planning A, 1983, vol. 15, issue 3, 405-416

Abstract: The role of beliefs, attitudes, social influence, and intentions as predictors of residential energy conservation behaviour is explored in the context of Fishbein and Ajzen's theory of reasoned action. Empirical analysis of survey data from Decatur, Illinois provides support for the theory and insight into barriers to energy conservation.
