Social capacity building and raising awareness on water and environmental problems through education of different groups of people is one of the most fundamental issues that should be considered so that the protection of water and the environment becomes a behavior pattern in society. Among the foundations of participation in the field of water resources and environmental protection, we can mention building cultural capacity, which has a function beyond academic, professional, and human resources training. Many models have been developed to examine the position of behavioral sciences in the field of water resources management, most of them are organized with the theory of planned behavior (TPB) structuring water conservation behaviors, which has been successful in predicting proven behavior and growth and development. The upstream model of this research is also developed through it. Considering that children as the future heirs of resources and students as influential segments of society are of particular importance, so, they should be encouraged to accept the role of protecting water resources in the best possible way. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to identify the psychological factors affecting the behavioral logic and behavioral tendencies of students to participate in water conservation through a socio-psychological model and to investigate the effectiveness of indirect and informal education with an environmental scratch approach.

In this research, the behavior of 90 students in three levels of education, primary, first, and second secondary, as well as 30 selected male and female undergraduate and master's students in Karaj city, about water, was investigated in the two axes of water consumption reduction and water reuse. For this purpose, a questionnaire was designed and prepared based on the defined components of the upstream model including intention, attitude, perceived behavior control, moral norm, understanding of risk, subjective norm, behavior, trust, and habit, and based on the review of international sources and interviews with experts to determine the behavioral logic of the statistical population of the research regarding the aforementioned policy options.

The obtained results showed that the indirect and informal educational programs for water protection have had a positive effect on people's attitudes towards water protection, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, behavioral inclination towards water protection, and moral norms. Also, education in female students has been more effective in the attitude component, but in male students, the level of knowledge and insight about water protection issues in the pre-test has been higher. In addition, education among primary students has been more effective than in first-secondary students.

In designing educational campaigns, it is better to pay attention to the intention of people to save water consumption and then implement this. Also, considering that it seems that the younger the training starts, the better the results. Therefore, special attention should be paid to education at younger ages. In addition, more educational programs should be carried out with an emphasis on indirect and informal education to facilitate water conservation for improving the behavior of water conservation among students.

The main purpose of this study is to investigate and analyze the position of green shopping behavior among environmentalists and activists and at the same time to investigate a conceptual-analytical model developed from the factors affecting green shopping behavior among this group of consumers. The research methodology is a combination that in the qualitative section in order to identify the factors affecting green shopping behavior, the research background and theoretical foundations related to the subject were reviewed and reviewed, and thus the most important components or themes affecting green shopping behavior. Was identified and a small part seeks to design a structural-interpretive model through the formation of a structural interaction matrix in which 20 environmental activists and experts were selected and finally collected information through a researcher-made questionnaire. Therefore, the present study, by understanding this issue through structural-interpretive model and MICMAC analysis, seeks to design a model based on the classification and segregation of factors affecting green buying behavior. The results show that the variables are located in four levels. The highest level means that the fourth level includes variables such as environmental concerns, religious obligations and product price,, these components have been identified as the final and ultimate pillars of factors affecting green shopping behavior that affect other factors and low levels. Responsibility for environment, sense of patriotism, collectivism and altruism, social norms and attention to the health of others are the most important social variables that are located in the next level, i.e. the third level.

In the present age, the issues and challenges of water crisis are at the center of attention of human life. To solve these crises, recent environmental policies have focused on encouraging pro-environmental behaviors and the determining factors of this behavior. Considering that one of the reasons for this crisis is the lack of human knowledge in the sustainable management of resources, therefore, the present research aims to contribute in the explanation and prediction of cooperative use behavior of water resources by Investigating the rich experiences of a successful case study in the field of water consumption local management by focusing on the knowledge component.

The theoretical framework of the research is the modify theory of planned behavior (MTPB) with an emphasis on the local knowledge component. This descriptive research was conducted using a survey method and a questionnaire among two groups of drinking and agricultural users in Toshan and Galand villages in Golestan province. The validity and reliability of the questionnaires have been confirmed using the Content Validity Ratio and Cronbach's alpha test. According to the research objectives, SPSS software was used for the statistical analysis of the questionnaires. In the following, structural equation modeling using Smart PLS software has been used for the simultaneous analysis of causal relationships between variables and the degree of conformity of the conceptual model with experimental observations.

The results of the statistical analysis show that the environmental knowledge of the users about water issues in the region is higher than the expected average, and this means that the level of cooperative behavior in the study area is high. Also, according to the Stone-Geisser scale, the structural model has a good structural quality in all cases. Investigating the structural part of the model by Average Variance Extracted (AVE) and Composite Reliability (CR) shows the appropriate reliability and convergent validity of the MTPB model. Also, the value of the R2 coefficient shows that in total, the variables of the modify model explain 92, 93, 74 and 79% of the behavior of the users of Toshan drinking, Galand drinking, Toshan agriculture and Galand agriculture, respectively, in relation to local participation in the use of water resources. Regarding the structural paths of the model, the results indicate that all components have a positive and significant effect on the variable of behavioral intention. Also, according to the obtained path coefficients, a positive and significant relationship has been observed between knowledge and attitude with the behavior of cooperative use of water resources, which confirms the hypothesis of the research and shows that the users have a positive attitude towards the cooperative behavior of water conservation in all cases.

According to the field experiences in the study area, the participation of stakeholders in the use of water resources facilitates the work by sharing environmental knowledge in cases where there are conflicts regarding the use of water. Adding the knowledge component, has not shown significant differences in improving behavior prediction between different cases of consumption. Of course, the results show that knowledge can be effective as a prerequisite for engaging in cooperative behavior. It should be noted that the results show that drinking water users, with a slight difference compared to agricultural users, have a greater behavioral intention to accept cooperative management of water resources.

People in the society directly and indirectly contribute to air pollution. Therefore, besides being an organizational and governmental responsibility, the participation of individuals in this matter can be significant in air pollution control. Using the developed theory of planning behavior, this study analyzed the behavior of households to decrease air pollution in Kerman City by investigating pollution, vehicles, electricity consumption, green spaces and reused and recycled appliances. The method of this research was quantitative in terms of the nature of data and practical in terms of purpose. The statistical population was all the households living in Kerman City, due to the lack of access to all the households in this research, 384 households were selected from the available sample. The data analysis tool used in this research was structural equations. The results showed that the variable of perceived behavioral control is the main driver of the intention of households to reduce air pollution, followed by the variables of attitude, mental norm, and past behavior had a direct effect on the individual intention of households to reduce air pollution. In order to reduce pollution and increase the health of households and reduce pollutants in this city, it is suggested to use fewer private vehicles and use public vehicles, plant trees and increase green spaces, and cooperate with the government to reduce the production of greenhouse gases.

This study was conducted with the general purpose of explaining the behavior of agricultural water conservation among farmers in Bavi County. The statistical population of this study consisted of all farmers in Bavi County of Khuzestan province. Using Cochran formula sampling and the stratified proportional sampling method, 190 persons were selected as the study sample. The data collection tool of the study was a questionnaire whose validity was confirmed by a panel of experts, and its reliability was established by calculating Chronbach's Alpha Coefficient (α > 0.7). Data analysis was done by SPSSwin18 and Smart Pls software. In this research, the theory of planned behavior was used for the research framework. The results of structural equation modeling showed that the variables of attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavior control, and inclination are able to explain 60.5% of water conservation behavior. In general, the results of this study can provide new insights for policymakers in this field, because in previous studies, more emphasis has been placed on incentives and limitations for water conservation, and attention has not been paid to environmental psychological studies.

Nowadays, participation of local communities has been recognized as a suitable approach to reach sustainable forest management. Participation of local communities in conservational projects and forest management can ensure the sustainable management of forest.

This study aims to investigate the factors affecting social acceptability and intention to participate rural communities in forest management using field survey and questionnaire in Najardeh village near the Kheyrood forest in the north of Iran. The conceptual model used in this research was examined by defining 9 hypotheses, modeling structural equations and confirmatory factor analysis.

Statistical test results showed no significant difference between men and women tendencies to participate. Among the whole variables related to the respondents, education and occupational status of people did not show a significant difference in terms of tendency to participate. The results of correlation study and confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the subjective norm is the most important factor affecting the tendency of villagers to participate in forest management and social acceptability of the project. Moreover, simplicity of the participation and the perceived usefulness positively and directly affect the tendency of villagers to participate in forestry projects. Discussion and

Accordingly, if the goal is to increase rural participation in forestry projects, then building trust and enhancing the knowledge of villagers about the simplicity and usefulness of participation can be helpful.
