Abstract Both individual and collective actions are needed to address global environmental changes. Contributing to a growing literature on the collective dimension of pro-environmental actions, we examined the role of national identity in mobilising environmental norms and pro-environmental tendencies. Latent profile analysis with a large national dataset (N = 13,942) revealed five profiles underlying participants’ views of attributes necessary for being a ‘true’ New Zealander. Four profiles containing over 89% of participants placed high importance on having a clean-and-green attitude as a core component of national identity, confirming that environmentalism is part of New Zealand’s zeitgeist. Importantly, believing that New Zealand has a superordinate environmental identity was associated with both individual pro-environmental tendencies and collective pro-environmental actions (i.e., support for government regulation of carbon emissions and subsidisation of public transport), both cross-sectionally and longitudinally. Forging national environmental identities and norms are thus important, yet vastly underutilised, pathways to mobilise pro-environmental collective action.

民族认同在集体环保行动中的作用

摘要 应对全球环境变化既需要个人行动，也需要集体行动。我们为越来越多的关于环保行动的集体维度的文献做出了贡献，我们研究了国家认同在动员环境规范和环保趋势方面的作用。使用大型国家数据集 (N = 13,942) 进行的潜在概况分析揭示了参与者对成为“真正的”新西兰人所必需的属性的看法的五个概况。包含超过 89% 参与者的四个简介高度重视将清洁和绿色的态度作为国家认同的核心组成部分，证实环保主义是新西兰时代精神的一部分。重要的，认为新西兰具有上级环境认同与个人环保倾向和集体环保行动（即支持政府监管碳排放和补贴公共交通）有关，无论是横向还是纵向。因此，塑造国家环境认同和规范是重要的，但未被充分利用的途径，以动员有利于环境的集体行动。
