One of the factors that contribute seriously to the degradation of environmental quality
is household waste. Hence, household participation in environmental conservation
especially in consumption ethics such as pre-cycling, reusing and recycling towards
household waste management should be discussed. Therefore, this paper aims to
identify the influential factors that reinforcing ethical consumption behavior of
Muslim households in one of the east coast states of Malaysia known as Terengganu.
Survey method was employed to gain information on the influential factors of pre-cycling, reusing and recycling activities. The questionnaire was distributed to 328
respondents through simple random sampling methods. Validity and reliability of 29
items with five scales were tested statistically. Sampling adequacy measure based on
the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) value is 0.745 (high). The rotated component matrix
in test of validity showed the value of all items in the questionnaire are more than 0.30
and each item loaded with its proposed constructs. While, Cronbach’s Alpha values
showed the reliability of the items are high (range from 0.681 to 0.870). Descriptive analysis, means and standard deviation was conducted to identify the level of affected
factor of household in their pre-cycling, reusing and recycling activities. The highest
factor for pre-cycling, reusing and recycling activities of household was social factors.
Besides that, their pre-cycling, reusing and recycling behavior was also influenced by
economic factor while religious and political factors are the least supporting factors.
