Field Experiments in Litter Control
Finnie, William C.
Environment and Behavior, 5, 2, 123-144, Jun 73
A series of urban and highway litter experiments in Richmond (Virginia), St. Louis, and Philadelphia indicated well-designed litter cans reduced littering about 15 percent along city streets and nearly 30 percent along highways. Also, the propensity to litter is critically affected by the characteristics of the individual and environmental factors. (BL)
