Abstract

We studied the influence of effect on daily life on acceptability of a parking-restricting policy, as well as the relationship between environmental self-identity and acceptability. Moreover, our main research question was: how does environmental self-identity influence the relationship between effect on daily life and acceptability? In total, our sample consisted of 132 participants. We conducted a regression analysis on effect on daily life and acceptability and included environmental self-identity for our moderation analysis. Our research reveals that effect on daily life has an influence on the acceptability of a parking-restricting policy. Also, environmental self-identity is related to acceptability. We did not generate significant results for the moderating effect of environmental self-identity on the relationship between effect on daily life and acceptability. For future research, we recommend clarifying the definition of "effect on daily life". Also, we suggest effectively communicating the purpose of pro-environmental policies to the individuals that are affected.
