This study aims to investigate farmers’ pro-environmental behaviour (FPB) under drought conditions. The epistemological perspective of the study was centred on human ecology and Norm Activation Theory (NAT). The study was designed as descriptive-correlational research of causal relationships and was conducted using the survey method. The statistical population includes farmers who live around Lake Hamoun on the Iran-Afghan border in the Sistan region. With NAT serving as the basis, the causal chain model of the impact of awareness of consequences, ascription of responsibility, subjective norms and personal norms on FPB was presented and tested. The proposed causal model is able to explain 34% of changes in FPB. The results of this study highlight the need for special attention to the fundamental changes that must be made in the environmental views of farmers as the most important stakeholders of water resources under drought conditions.

农民旱情亲环境行为的人文生态分析：范数激活理论的应用

本研究旨在调查农民在干旱条件下的亲环境行为 (FPB)。该研究的认识论观点以人类生态学和规范激活理论（NAT）为中心。该研究被设计为因果关系的描述性相关研究，并使用调查方法进行。统计人口包括居住在锡斯坦地区伊朗-阿富汗边境哈蒙湖周围的农民。以NAT为基础，提出并检验了后果意识、责任归属、主观规范和个人规范对FPB影响的因果链模型。提出的因果模型能够解释 FPB 中 34% 的变化。
