Community identity generates a sense of community belonging, which in turn influences public participation. Based on the conceptual model of the theory of planned behavior and three elements of community identity, the study constructs a structural equation model (SEM) to explore the pathways that how community identity affects participation attitudes, subjective norms of participation, perceived behavioral control of participation, participation willingness, and participation behavior. The result indicates that participation willingness has a significant positive impact on participation behavior. Participation attitude, participation subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control over participation interact with each other, influencing participation willingness and participation behavior. Overall, public participation presents different in different kind of communities. At the end of the article, the author analyzes the potential data errors in the research and summarizes future research work, in order to conduct a more in-depth and comprehensive analysis of the impact of community identity on public participation.
