Influence Of Environmental Ethics On The Environmental Concerns Of Chemical Engineering Students

Abstract

This research describes the relationship between environmental ethics and chemical
engineering students' environmental concerns in Peruvian universities. The data analysis
provides results that confirm that the application of an Environmental Ethics program positively
influences chemical engineering students' environmental concerns. The results obtained through
self-application instruments in the control and experimental groups, under the application of an
intervention program, were subjected to hypothesis tests of differences of means with the Mann-
Whitney, Wilcoxon U statistics and applying the Games-Howell post hoc test or univariate
generalized linear model post test, based on the information from the Games-Howell post hoc
test, it can be stated with a significance level Sig. = 0.200 that there are no statistically significant
differences in the medians of the GC pretest, the GC post test, and the G.E. preliminary test;
which do differ significantly from the median results of the G.E. From these statistically
significant results, it is concluded that the intervention with the environmental ethics program
was effective in improving the levels of environmental concerns of Chemical Engineering
students belonging to the Peruvian university system.
