Resumen
La comprensión de las relaciones entre el comportamiento proambiental y los recursos psicológicos se encuentra en un creciente desarrollo. Este es un estudio descriptivo-correlacional, comparativo- transversal realizado con 406 estudiantes, quienes respondieron las escalas de Comportamiento Proambiental y de Bienestar Psicológico, más una ficha sociodemográfica. Los resultados presentan niveles mayores en factores proambientales y niveles medios en factores del bienestar psicológico. Se identifican diferencias significativas entre los factores medidos respecto de la facultad a la que pertenecen. Existen correlaciones significativas entre los factores del bienestar psicológico y los factores proambientales, con menores magnitudes ante los factores antiambientales. La norma subjetiva y la autonomía son los predictores que mejor contribuyen a la intención del comportamiento proambiental. Se espera que el fortalecimiento de los factores señalados, en conjunto con el dominio del entorno y las creencias proambientales, pueden contribuir a una mayor intención de comportamiento proambiental; no obstante, se requieren más estudios que evalúen otras variables psicológicas implicadas.
