Abstract This study examined the psychological and social factors influencing sustainable energy practices among 179 senior high school students at Mapúa University – Intramuros. Key variables included attitudes, perceived behavioral control, subjective norms, perceived benefits, product quality, and understanding of energy policies. Participants were selected using Slovin’s formula and convenience sampling, with data collected via structured online surveys distributed through Google Forms. The survey featured multiple-choice items and four-point Likert scale questions to measure students’ perceptions and behaviors. Descriptive statistics in SPSS were used to summarize demographic data and response trends, while Spearman’s rho correlation analysis assessed the relationship between energy-saving intentions and actual behaviors. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) was employed to analyze complex relationships among variables and identify mediating effects. Findings revealed that students demonstrated strong energy-saving attitudes, perceptions, and a clear intent to sustain such behaviors. A strong positive correlation was established between energy-saving intention and behavior, suggesting that as students’ motivation to conserve energy increases, so do their sustainable actions. PLS-SEM analysis further indicated that enhancing awareness of energy-saving benefits and reinforcing social influence can significantly strengthen energy conservation efforts. These insights highlight the potential for targeted educational and behavioral interventions to support sustainability.
