  1. Standard errors in parentheses. PBC perceived behavioral control, Future behavior = using a refillable bottle, CR composite reliability, Spearman’s rho was computed for past and future behavior, AVE average variance extracted. The coefficients are all significant with p < 0.001. The square root of the AVE values for each construct is reported in the main diagonal in italics.
