ABSTRACT
With the exacerbation of environmental pollution, pro-environmental behavior is becoming
increasingly imperative. The emergence of mobile mini programs plays a pivotal role in promoting
such behavior. However, there remains a dearth of research examining the influence of perceived
interactivity on pro-environmental behavior. In line with the Stimulus-Organism-Response (S-O-R)
model, this study aims to investigate the impact of perceived interactivity on pro-environmental
behavior. Utilizing a questionnaire survey of 336 Ant Forest users, the partial least squares method
was employed to analyze the data. The findings reveal that control, responsiveness, and connectivity
positively influence user engagement. Moreover, user engagement significantly correlates with brand
love and user satisfaction. Additionally, brand love and user satisfaction significantly contribute to user
stickiness, thereby fostering pro-environmental behavior. This study represents the first attempt to
explore the influence of perceived interactivity on pro-environmental behavior.
