Abstract

Indicators are used in almost every scientific field to quantify and/or record and/or follow the evolution of a specific parameter. Environmental indicators are related to the environment quality and are specifically used to monitor the quality of the environment and to measure the environmental performance. They can be categorized into specific, composite and personal environmental indicators. A review of the personal environmental indicators used in the literature are presented here. Personal environmental indicators include indicators related to the attitudes and behaviours of citizens towards environmental issues. The main personal environmental indicators reported in the literature are: the New Environmental Paradigm Scale, the Environmental Attitude Inventory, the General Ecological Behavior Scale, the Motivation Toward the Environment Scale, the Connectedness to Nature Scale, the Ecocentric Scale and the Anthropocentric Scale.
