Examining the Influence of Locus of Control on Citizenship Behavior: The Mediating Role of Naturalistic Intelligence in Urban Sustainability

Journal Title: International Journal of Current Science Research and Review - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 12

Abstract

This study aims to examine the relationship between Locus of Control (LOC), Naturalistic Intelligence (NI), and Behavioral Citizenship (BC) in the context of sustainable cities in Indonesia. The primary objective is to investigate how LOC influences BC and the mediating role of NI in this relationship. The research was conducted in Tanjung Priok, North Jakarta, with a sample of 200 participants. Data were collected using a questionnaire with a 5-point Likert scale, and analysis was performed using Path Analysis with SmartPLS software. The key findings demonstrate that LOC positively impacts both NI and BC, with NI serving as a significant mediator between LOC and BC. Individuals with a high sense of control over their lives and strong naturalistic intelligence are more likely to engage in pro-environmental and community-oriented behaviors. These findings underscore the importance of psychological factors in promoting sustainable citizenship behaviors. The study contributes to the literature by highlighting the role of naturalistic intelligence as a crucial mediator in the relationship between personal control and active citizenship. It also offers practical insights for urban policymakers and community leaders, emphasizing the need to incorporate environmental education and psychological empowerment into urban sustainability programs to foster greater community engagement and responsibility.
