The purpose of this dissertation is firstly to examine the level of pro-environmental behavior of urban employed wives depending on their life style type and secondly to identify effective ways to promote their pro-environmental behavior. A structured questionnaire interview was conducted with 700 urban employed wives who lived in the Seoul Metropolitan area, and 566 of the responses were valid for analysis. For statistical analysis, this research reviewed the frequencies, percentage, mean, standard deviation(SD), Pearson's correlations, Cronbach's u, factor analysis, cluster analysis, ANOVA, $\chi$$^2$-test, Duncan's Multiple Range Test, and multiple regression using SPSS/PC WIN. The findings of analysis of the study are as follows: 1. Among life style types of employed wives, the order of ecological value was orientation type (37.3%), followed by economical value orientation type (25.8%), uninterested type (18.7%), and convenience-centric value orientation type (18.2%).Pro-environmental behavior scored relatively highly at 3.45 in average. 2. In the analysis of the relationship between life style and background variations, every variation except environmental knowledge was meaningful. 3. In the relationship between pro-environment behavior and background variations, every variation was meaningful except housing types, having helper or not, and environmental knowledge. 4. The recognition level of environmental pollution was important among the variations affecting pro-environmental behavior. 5. There was a difference in pro-environmental behaviors by the following life style types: ecological value orientation, economical value orientation, convenience centric orientation and uninterested. 6. For the relative contribution comparison of background variations (socio-economic variation and environmental variation) and life style variations to the pro-environmental behavior of urban empolyed wives, this research additionally applied each independent variable group. As a result, the explanation level drastically increased in the third step that analyzed the relationship with life style.

본 연구는 P광역시 S초등학교 6학년 40명의 학생들을 대상으로 EBS 프로그램을 활용한 환경수업이 초등학생들의 환경감수성과 환경책임행동에 미치는 영향을 알아본 것이다. 본 연구의 결론은 다음과 같다. 첫째, EBS 프로그램을 활용한 환경수업이 초등학생들의 환경감수성을 유의미하게 향상 시키는 것으로 나타났다. EBS 프로그램을 활용한 환경수업이 학교라는 공간적 제약을 넘어 전 세계적으로 지구시민들이 환경문제에 관심을 갖고 있으며 환경문제를 해결하기 위하여 노력한다는 점을 알려준다는 점과, EBS 교육방송 환경 콘텐츠에서 제안하는 환경 문제를학습자가 자신의 문제로 삼아 기쁨, 슬픔, 분노, 두려움, 기대감이라는 정서적인 측면을 기르고, 더 나아가 일상생활, 학교생활에서 환경 문제를 찾아보고 친환경 행동에 참여, 실천하면서 환경감수성이 길러졌다고 생각된다. 둘째, EBS 프로그램을 활용한 환경수업이 초등학생들의 환경책임행동에 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이것은 EBS 프로그램을 활용한 환경수업이 지식전달에서 그치는 것이 아닌 환경과 관련된 시민적 행동, 교육적 행동, 경제적 행동, 신체적 행동, 설득적 행동으로 연결되는 학습을 제안한다는 점과 실천에 참여한 학생들이 서로 자신의 의견과 생각을 나눠보는 시간을 가짐으로써 환경에 대한 책임감이 길러졌다고 판단된다. 셋째, EBS 프로그램을 활용한 환경수업에 참여한 학생들의 수업 만족도, 흥미도, 참여도를 분석한 결과 연구집단 20명의 학생들 중 80%의 학생들이 만족했으며, 90%의 학생들이 수업이 흥미로웠다고 답했다. 또한 수업의 참여도를 묻는 질문에도 85%의 학생들이 열심히 참여했다고 답했다. 학생들이 지식으로만 환경문제를 접하고 끝내는 수업이 아니라 서로의 생각을 나누고, 행동에 변화를 주면서 환경문제에 자신이 직접 참여하고 있음을 알게 하였기에 EBS 프로그램을 활용한 환경수업에 대한 학생들의 평가가 높게 나타났다고 생각된다.

The results of this study are as follows. First, the experimental group is more effective in promoting the pro-environmental attitude compared with the control group. Second, the experimental group is more effective in promoting the pro-environmental behavior compared with the control group. Third, the experimental group is not more effective in promoting the pro-environmental knowledge compared with the control group. Fourth, students are concerned and interested in the environment and environmental problems of the daily-life. And, they presented positive attitude and active participation toward environmental preservation. So, the process of PBL using water environmental program showed that it promotes active learning participation and various action. In conclusion, the environmental education program through PBL program has a positive effect on pro-environmental attitudes and behavior of elementary school students.

The purpose of this study was to assess pro-environmental behavior of elementary school students by school year and gender and to investigate the relationships of their emotional affinity toward and intellectual curiosity about life, and experiences about nature and life with the pro-environmental behavior. A total of 436 elementary students participated in the study: 189 3rd grade; 247 6th grade students, and 233 boys; 203 girls. The variables were measured by using a self-report questionnaire with 5-point Likert scale items. The results showed the levels of pro-environmental behavior of the 3rd grade students and the girls were higher than that of the 6th grade and the boys, respectively. Their pro-environmental behavior was significantly related with all measured variables. However, it was found that the direct predictors of their pro-environmental behavior were the intellectual curiosity and the indirect experience, while the emotional affinity and the direct experience did not have a direct impact on the behavior. The predictive power of the intellectual curiosity and the indirect experience for their pro-environmental behavior was higher in 3rd grade than 6th grade. While the indirect experience was a stronger predictor of the boys' pro-environmental behavior than the intellectual curiosity, the curiosity was a stronger predictor of the girls.

The purpose of this study is to examine green consumer behavior (green product purchasing behavior and green consumption life) affected by demographical characteristics, and cognition degree of green life (cognition of a green indicator, a green life catalyst system, and environmental problems). It's also to promote strategy and suggest effective activation plans for the vitalization of green consumer behavior. To carry out the task, verification of credibility, multiple regression analysis, two-step cluster analysis, and multinomial logistic analysis were used. The results are as follows: First, the factors that effect green product purchasing behavior were gender, age, cognitive of a green indicator, carbon points system, electricity peak hour system, and seriousness of environmental damage due to lifestyle. Second, the factors that effect green lifestyle were gender, age, carbon grade indicator system, cognition of a green system, and the seriousness of environmental damage due to lifestyle. Third, the comparative group characteristic analysis showed low rates for careless green consumer behavior groups compared to the passive green consumer behavior groups in cognition of a green indicator, green system, and environmental problems. For active green consumer behavior groups, the analysis showed high rates in cognition of carbon grades, eco-labeling, electricity peak hour system, and environmental damage due to lifestyle. In order to encourage green consumer behavior, it's evident that cognition of a green indicator, a green life catalyst system, and environmental problems need to be improved through strategic education and continuous encouragement.

A total of 366 copies of questionnaires were used for the data analysis; 31 copies were excluded due to lack of response to any given question. To ensure the reliability and validity of the questions, technical statistics were performed, such as frequency, ratio, average, standard deviation, skewness, and kurtosis via SPSS 15.0, item-total correlation and the totality, and reliability analysis. A structural analysis was undertaken via AMOS 7.0 in a bootstrapping method in order to perform a path analysis among variables as well as to assess the suitability of the model. The findings of the study were led to the following conclusions: First, the causal model among green consumer behavior, environmental knowledge and environmental attitudes of students at the university of education is suitable to the empirical analysis on research variables. Second, the environmental attitudes of students at the university of education has a direct, positive effect on green consumer behavior. Third, the environmental knowledge of students at the university of education has an indirect, positive effect on green consumer behavior.
