| Article Name : | | | The Predictive Model For Environment Related Behaviour Regarding Locus Of Control And Ecological Value | | Author Name : | | | Pintu Kumar Maji | | Publisher : | | | Ashok Yakkaldevi | | Article Series No. : | | | GRT-2839 | | Article URL : | |  | Author Profile View PDF In browser | | Abstract : | | | There are various internal and external factors which influence environment related behavior. The present study only sought to measure the effect of locus of control, utilisation and preservation as ecological values. The construct of environment related behaviour has been researched extensively across diverse social situations. But there is hardly any empirical study on environment related behaviour in the context of students with visual impairment. Cross-sectional empirical study was based on survey type research design. The sample (N=240), comprising students studying in grade IX to XII, was drawn from special and general educational institutes in West Bengal. Sampling decisions are made for the explicit purpose of obtaining the richest possible source of information to answer the research questions. The Bengali adaptation of locus of control scale (Julian Rotter, 1966), ecological value (Wiseman and Bogner, 1999) and environment related behaviour scale (constructed and standardized by the researcher) were used to collect relevant information. Except utilisation all the independent (preservation and locus of control) variables considered in the present study were the successful predictors of the environment related behaviour of the total students with visual impairment. | | Keywords : | | - Indian Financial Market ,
