The theory of planned behavior emphasizes the attitudinal aspects associated with behavior, while the value–belief–norm model regarding the environment focuses on the importance of moral components when setting environmental behaviors in motion. The objective of this study was to analyze both models, comparing both their degree of fit and their predictive power regarding recycling behavior. To do so, we used a sample made up of 154 Spanish housewives. The results indicated that despite the fact that the theory of planned behavior is a general model for predicting and explaining behavior, it has a greater degree of fit and greater capacity to predict recycling behavior than the value–belief–norm model regarding the environment.}, publisher = {Wiley}, keywords = {Theory of Planned Behavior}, keywords = {Value–Belief–Norm Model}, keywords = {Pro-environmental behaviors}, keywords = {Housewives’ Recycling Behavior}, keywords = {Spanish}, title = {COMPARATIVE STUDY BETWEEN THE THEORY OF PLANNED BEHAVIOUR AND THE VALUE-BELIEF-NORM MODEL REGARDING THE ENVIRONMENT, ON SPANISH HOUSEWIVES?
