Environmental Identity and Biospheric values are both considered to be antecedents of Environmental Activism. Although various authors have suggested a relationship between Biospheric Values and Environmental Identity, this relationship has rarely been empirically studied. Moreover, the role of affect domain in influencing Environmental Activism has received less attention. This paper is aimed at shedding light on the relationship between Biospheric Values, Connectedness to Nature, and Environmental Identity, as well as studying how both are related to Environmental Activism. It was hypothesized that Environmental Identity mediates the relationship between both Biospheric Values and Connectedness to Nature, and Environmental Activism. A sample of 168 Italian young adults completed an online survey designed to gather information about the variables under study. The results provided support to the hypothesis that Biospheric Values and Connectedness to Nature are related to Environmental Identity, and that their relationship with Environmental Activism is fully mediated by Environmental Identity. In light of the existing literature, the results of this study will be discussed.
