Fig. 3: The role of trust in the central government as a moderating factor.
From: Impact of air pollution perception on environmental governance satisfaction
This figure demonstrates the significant moderating effect of central government trust on the relationship between air pollution perception and environmental governance satisfaction. The plot reveals that individuals with high trust in the central government experience a more pronounced decline in satisfaction when air pollution perception is high. This finding suggests that heightened expectations associated with high central government trust can lead to greater dissatisfaction under severe pollution conditions, thus supporting hypothesis H4a.
