چکیده

The aim of this research was to validate an educational model for environmental etiquette that was designed based on the Islamic-Iranian progress model. To this end, a descriptive survey method was employed, and the perspectives of 111 specialists were collected through purposive sampling using the snowball technique and a researcher-made questionnaire. The reliability of the tool was confirmed using Cronbach's alpha, and its validity was established through convergent and divergent validity tests, as well as the Fornell-Larcker criterion. The results were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. After examining the fit of the measurement models, the fit of the confirmatory factor analysis model was assessed, and the proposed model was presented using structural equation modeling techniques and SmartPLS software. The overall model fit was evaluated using the GOF criterion, and the comprehensive validity of the model from the specialists' perspective was also examined. Ultimately, the validity of the model and its comprehensive validity from the specialists' viewpoint were confirmed.
