Anti-littering Attitude among University Graduates in Khulna City

This study aims to evaluate the anti-littering scale for students and reveals the factors of anti-littering attitude among university graduates in Khulna city. This is mainly a cross-sectional study where 209 samples are collected by employing multistage sampling technique. Descriptive statistics, cross-tabulation and logistic regression analysis have been used to address the research objective. This study finds that the average anti-littering score is 3.60 on a scale of 5.0 which implies that students have medium level of anti-littering attitude. We find that parental education and the father’s income are positively associated with an anti-littering attitude. In addition, pure science and engineering students have the highest level of positive anti-littering attitude. Regression analysis reports that family type, father’s income, attending environmental program, environmental attitude and sensitivity to the environment are positively related to the anti-littering attitude. These findings help to understand students' anti-littering attitude which helps to solve the problem of littering.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the anti-littering scale for students and reveals the factors of anti-littering attitude among university graduates in Khulna city. This is mainly a cross-sectional study where 209 samples are collected by employing multistage sampling technique. Descriptive statistics, cross-tabulation and logistic regression analysis have been used to address the research objective. This study finds that the average anti-littering score is 3.60 on a scale of 5.0 which implies that students have medium level of anti-littering attitude. We find that parental education and the father’s income are positively associated with an anti-littering attitude. In addition, pure science and engineering students have the highest level of positive anti-littering attitude. Regression analysis reports that family type, father’s income, attending environmental program, environmental attitude and sensitivity to the environment are positively related to the anti-littering attitude. These findings help to understand students' anti-littering attitude which helps to solve the problem of littering.
