| Abstract |
Reuse represents a critical strategy for prolonging the utility of items while conserving resources. The aim of this meta-analysis is to aggregate and reanalyze previous studies on factors influencing reuse behavior. By integrating data from 59 studies comprising 366 samples, the research assess the relationship between factors based on different motivational goals and reuse behavior. The results reveal that the factors of attitudes, outcome efficacy and knowledge are most strongly associated with public reuse behaviors. Furthermore, the study found that the public showed a higher level of acceptance for reusing products following remanufacturing than for other reuse treatment processes. In terms of economic considerations, there is a marked preference for the reuse of higher- priced items among the public. The study contributes to a systematic summary of reuse behaviors and enriches existing research by offering strategies to encourage item reuse. |
