In light of increasing concerns about global environmental problems, environmental moral education is assumed to have a significant influence on the pro-environmental behaviour of students. Within the past decade, several higher education institutes have acknowledged the importance of integrating sustainability into the educational curriculum to have a focused and explicit impact on society. The current study investigated the relationship between environmental moral education and pro-environmental behaviour while drawing upon insights from the conservation of resource theory. The relationship among the aforementioned variables was studied for the mediating role of psychological empowerment and the moderating effect of Islamic religiosity. Data were collected from 429 university students with a cross-sectional approach. The data were analysed using "structural equation modelling" and "PROCESS" analytical techniques. The results of the study followed the predicted conceptual model, that is, environmental moral education was positively related to pro-environmental behaviour. Furthermore, psychological empowerment partially mediated the aforementioned relationship, while Islamic religiosity moderated the relationships between environmental moral education and pro-environmental behaviour as well as between environmental moral education and psychological empowerment. These findings reinforce the importance of environmental moral education and Islamic religiosity in understanding the Muslim student's ecological behaviours.
鉴于人们对全球环境问题的担忧日益增加，人们认为环境道德教育对学生的环保行为有重大影响。在过去十年中，一些高等教育机构已经认识到将可持续性纳入教育课程的重要性，以便对社会产生有针对性和明确的影响。本研究借鉴资源保护理论的观点，探讨了环境道德教育与环保行为之间的关系。研究了上述变量之间的关系，以心理赋权为中介，以伊斯兰教宗教信仰为调节变量。采用横断面研究方法，从 429 名大学生中收集数据。采用“结构方程模型”和“PROCESS”分析技术对数据进行分析。研究结果符合预测的概念模型，即环境道德教育与环保行为呈正相关。此外，心理赋权部分中介了上述关系，而伊斯兰教宗教信仰调节了环境道德教育与环保行为以及环境道德教育与心理赋权之间的关系。这些发现强调了环境道德教育和伊斯兰教宗教信仰在理解穆斯林学生生态行为方面的重要性。
