JARAMILLO RAMOS, Lucía  e  DIAZ-MARIN, Johann Streiker. Evaluation of Psychological Factors Associated with Sustainable Transportation. Divers.: Perspect. Psicol. [online]. 2020, vol.16, n.2, pp.341-352.  Epub 01-Jul-2020. ISSN 1794-9998.  https://doi.org/10.15332/22563067.6317.

This research arises from the need to find new habits of sustainable consumption, and it is focused on the identification of psychological factors associated with the regular use of the bicycle as a sustainable transportation. Several groups of variables were evaluated in 492 undergraduate students. The three predictors of the Theory of Planned Behavior, some sociodemographic characteristics, and transportation habits were consulted. Through a taxonomy of linear models, these variables were integrated and analyzed. Results indicate that older people, greater attitude, and greater perceived behavioral control are the best significant characterization that can be achieved of bike-user students. We found perceived behavioral control is the strongest correlation with the use of bicycles. Implications for campaigns aimed at promoting the use of bicycles in students are discussed.
