Attitudes and behavior in social space: Public good interventions based on shared representations and environmental influences

Influence of packaging design on littering and waste behaviour

“…The eco-feedback strategy was applied in the form of anti-littering labels applied to disposable coffee cups in both conspicuous (experiment 1a) and inconspicuous forms (experiment 1b). The scripting strategy was applied in several forms, namely reusability (experiment 2a), reclosability (experiment 2b) and 'top of mindness', which aims at making it less likely for consumers to forget to clean up a package 20 (experiment 3). Experiment 1a with conspicuous labels and experiment 2a with reclosable packaging were previously published as a conference paper.…”

“…Other causes also include poor packaging design of commercial products, amount of litter already present at a particular site, presence and wording of signs referring to litter, and the number and/or placement and appearance of waste collection bins at the site (Kapoor, 2001;Somerville et al, 2003;Hasan, 2004;Gray and Gray, 2004;Santos et al, 2005a). Similarly, an array of socio-economic factors can affect public attitude towards littering, frequency of littering, and the effective approaches to hinder the littering tendency within an individual (Willoughby et al, 1997;Santos et al, 2005b;Liu and Sibley, 2004;Arafat et al, 2007;Storrier and McGlashan, 2006). These factors are region-and culture-dependent, and it is very important to study them if an effective littering-prevention program is to be designed (Liu and Sibley, 2004).…”

To get a better comprehension of the complexity of street litter problems, integration between socio-economic and environmental studies is essential.…”
