Abstract

Individuals' behaviours are also effective in achieving the goals of the European Green Deal (EGD). For this reason, the compliance levels of individuals with the Constitutional Court regulations were analyzed through a survey conducted by sample covers 411 people living in Uşak. Factor analysis, structural equation model and difference tests were used in the study. Individuals' EGD knowledge levels, individuals' environmental behaviours and external environmental assessment levels were determined as the main dimensions. The most important results of the study are that the increase in individuals' knowledge about EGD has a decisive effect on environmental behaviour. The findings provide important data for policy makers to achieve the EGD's goals.

Özet

Avrupa Yeşil Mutabakatı (AYM) hedeflerine ulaşılabilmesinde, bireylerin davranışları da etkilidir. Bu nedenle Uşakta yaşayan 411 kişi ile yapılan anket çalışması ile bireylerin AYM düzenlemelere uyum düzeylerinin analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmada faktör analizi, yapısal eşitlik modeli ve farklılık testleri kullanılmıştır. Bireylerin AYM bilgi düzeyleri, bireylerin çevreci davranışları ve dış çevresel değerlendirme düzeyleri ana boyutlar olarak belirlenmiştir. Çalışmanın en önemli sonuçları bireylerin AYM hakkındaki bilgi düzeyinde artışın, çevreci davranışlar üzerinde belirleyici etkiye sahip olmasıdır. Bulgular politika yapıcılar için AYM hedeflerine ulaşmada önemli veri sağlamaktadır.
