Description

Avus Hou and co-authors ask what moves students toward green habits in a 2025 survey study. Their model joins eco anxiety, social anxiety, inner and outer drives, and a sense of duty for nature. Data came from 350 students in Vietnam, and the team tested the linked paths with a structural model.

Both forms of anxiety fed stronger green drives, and those drives in turn raised plans to act green. A sense of duty lifted plans on its own and also shaped how drives played out. All nine paths the team proposed held up. The results point schools toward lessons that work on feelings and values, not facts alone.
