Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine: (1) waste management behavior, environmental knowledge, local wisdom, and attitudes towards the community environment in a large-type housing complex in Soppeng Regency, (2) the influence of environmental knowledge, local wisdom, and attitudes towards the environment itself alone and jointly on the behavior of the community in managing waste in a large-type housing complex in Soppeng Regency. This type of research is correlational research. The research is located in a large type housing complex in Soppeng Regency. The population of this study is the head of the family who lives in a large type housing complex in Soppeng Regency. The sample area is one large type of housing complex selected by purposive sampling method. Respondents of 50 families were selected by systematic random sampling method. The dependent variable of the study is the behavior of managing waste (Y). The independent variables (X) are: (a) environmental knowledge (X1); (b) local wisdom (X2); and (c) environmental attitude (X3). The data analysis technique used are descriptive statistical analysis and infrensial statistical analysis. The analytical model used are simple regression and multiple regression. The results showed that: (1) waste management behavior, environmental knowledge, local wisdom, and attitudes towards the community environment in a large type housing complex in Soppeng Regency were classified as low, (2) partially and jointly, environmental knowledge, local wisdom, and environmental attitudes have a very significant effect and give a real contribution to people's behavior in managing waste in a large type housing complex in Soppeng Regency.
