Exploring the theory planned behaviour to derive the factors of human behaviour for domestic waste recycling. Journal of the Malaysian Institute of Planners, 19 (2). pp. 238-249. ISSN 0128-0945 (2020)



Abstract

Malaysia is experiencing waste disposal management issues involving the lack of recycling practices among human behaviour, the absence of domestic waste recycling mechanisms, and poor enforcement for recycling activities. Previous studies revealed that households generate domestic waste hence requires changes in domestic waste management. This paper aims to establish the conceptual framework of solid waste recycling practice by employing the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB). Content analysis was employed to verify the trends of research in the related topic. From prior related studies, a variety of approaches based on
the TPB model were examined. Results demonstrated that many factors influence the household’s behaviour in domestic waste recycling using the TPB model. The outcome of this study was a conceptual framework in determining the factors of human behaviour in domestic waste recycling. The framework can therefore be a mechanism for authority in managing domestic waste.
