How long does it take and how many items are included?

Completion typically takes about 5 minutes. The questionnaire includes 23 items.

How should responses be selected?

Select the option that best matches typical behavior, not ideal behavior. Use the same time frame across items when judging frequency.

What if an item does not apply or the behavior is not possible?

WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Pro-Environmental Behavior Scale Test

ecology

This measure assesses self-reported behaviors related to everyday environmental practices. The Pro-Environmental Behavior Scale is typically used to characterize the frequency or consistency of actions that may reduce environmental impact in routine settings.

The instrument contains 23 items and takes about 5 minutes to complete. Content commonly samples behavioral domains such as waste management, resource conservation, consumer choices, and civic or social participation, with attention to transportation- or climate-relevant actions. It was developed by Paul C. Stern.

Scores from the Pro-Environmental Behavior Scale may be used in research, program evaluation, or educational contexts to describe behavior patterns and to monitor change over time, while recognizing that results reflect self-report and may be influenced by response style and situational constraints.
