While social change research designed to promote recycling has increased rapidly in recent years, empirical documentation of the importance and effectiveness of distribution channel management for enhancing public support and participation is lacking. In this paper, it is argued mat the design of reverse distribution channels for recyclables influences support and participation through at least three distinct mechanisms: • it influences attitudes and behavior by affecting the perceived costs of recycling; • it influences behavior by affecting the opportunities for acting on recycling intentions, and; • it has the potential for improving attitudes (through dissonance reduction, attribution, and adjusting faulty cost expectations) through inducing trial. The importance of channel design characteristics through these three mechanisms is illustrated by the results from a continuing research program aimed at boosting the recycling of household waste in Denmark.

In this article the significance of logistics in the system of effective enterprise management, distribution channels, role and significance in the activity of modern enterprises were determined (for example, the enterprise "PJSC Pоltаvpilо"). The most important tool in improving the company’s operations is logistics. Logistics helps efficient operation of the customer service system. Of particular importance is the construction of efficient distribution channels in supply chains. This is due to the significant volumes of sales of such products, small terms of sales of goods and their social significance.

This research applies the binding communication model to the sustainable communication strategies implemented in most hotels. The binding communication model links a persuasive message with the implementation of a low-cost commitment to strengthen the link between the attitudes and behavior of those receiving the message. We compared the effectiveness of a classical communication strategy (n = 86) with that of a binding communication strategy (n = 101) to encourage guests to choose sustainable behavior. Our results show that using the binding communication strategy generates significantly more sustainable behavior in guests than using the classical communication strategy. We discuss our results and suggest future avenues of research.

Abstract. The core aim of the present study is to compare the effects of a safety campaign and a behavior modification program on traffic safety. As is the case in community-based health promotion, the present study's approach of the attitude campaign was based on active participation of the group of recipients. One of the reasons why many attitude campaigns conducted previously have failed may be that they have been society-based public health programs. Both the interventions were carried out simultaneously among students aged 18-19 years in two Norwegian high schools (n = 342). At the first high school the intervention was behavior modification, at the second school a community-based attitude campaign was carried out. Baseline and posttest data on attitudes toward traffic safety and self-reported risk behavior were collected. The results showed that there was a significant total effect of the interventions although the effect depended on the type of intervention. There were significant differences in attitude and behavior only in the sample where the attitude campaign was carried out and no significant changes were found in the group of recipients of behavior modification.

Abstract. Most employees participate in workplace meetings, and their experiences in meetings can vary greatly, which can lead to positive or negative effects on both job attitudes and behavior. In this study, we examined the effect that a meeting attendee’s competence in the meeting topic had on their participation in the meeting and their perception of meeting effectiveness. Results indicated those with higher levels of competence in the meeting topic were more likely to participate and through participation found their meeting more effective; this relationship was stronger when employee dissent in the meetings was high. Leaders should ensure that those who are present in a meeting are competent in the topic of the meeting and encourage them to participate.
