Abstract: SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR EVALUATING AND VISUALIZING SUSTAINABILITY LITERACY AND ORIENTATION A system and method for evaluating and visualizing sustainability literacy and orientation includes computerized database module to populate a digital item pool with a plurality of initial digital items. Tagging module links the metadata of each digital item to exactly one of four predefined Knowledge-Attitude-Behavior (KAB) constructs such as cognitive, ethical, transformative, and engagement constructs. Data processing engine to aggregate user inputs received from multiple authenticated expert users, wherein said processing engine calculates an Aiken’s V statistic for each item based on the aggregated user inputs. A data collection engine to capture Likert- scale responses and qualitative text inputs upon threshold of 250 datasets is reached, and statistical analysis module for Harman’s Single-Factor Test executes an Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) to detect common method bias in raw data array. The processing engine is enabled to output a JSON array containing 41 validated items, mapped to the respective four-vectors. A finalized GUI structure to render assessments to end-user devices to calculate an individual’s final sustainability literacy profile.
