A questionnaire study was conducted to investigate how conservatism, community size, child-bearing intention and possession of driver's license or intention of having driver's license affect environmental concern. Ninty-seven male and 111 female Japanese college students participated. As hypothesized, females who were less conservative had higher environmental concern than those who were more conservative. The hypothesis associated with community size was also supported for both males and females that those who are from larger communities have higher environmental concern than those who are from smaller communities. The hypothesis regarding family size was partially confirmed in both males and females that those who desire to have smaller numbers of children tend to have higher environmental concern than those who desire to have larger numbers of children. In the end, females who did not intend to have a driver's license were more prone to have higher environ-mental concern than those who possessed a driver's license as was hypothesized.
