Abstract

The environmental behaviors of the community residents, as the demonstrators, supervisors and beneficiaries of the leisure agriculture tourism destinations play an effect on the ecological environment of the leisure agriculture tourism destinations to a certain extent. In this study, the environmental behaviors of the community residents as well as affecting factors were measured through factor analysis, descriptive statistics, correlation analysis and regression analysis by taking Baishawan Ecological Farm Village for example and using 9 environmental behavior indexes and 20 affecting factor indexes. The results showed that the environmental values and knowledge had a remarkable effect on the environmental propaganda and education behaviors and citizenship behaviors; a sense of responsibility for environment, the environmental management level, and the external environment standards had a significant effect on the environmental management behaviors; other factors played a relatively small effect on the three major environmental behaviors. Finally, the enlightenment to optimizing the environmental behaviors of the community residents in Baishawan Ecological Farm Village is raised.
