Examines knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors related to SDGs in primary pupils, highlighting engagement gaps.

The aim is to evaluate primary pupils' knowledge, attitudes, and self-reported behaviors towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Surveyed 252 primary pupils aged 9–10 in Spain using a validated questionnaire focused on five SDGs (3, 12, 13, 14, 15).
Conducted network analysis to explore relationships between knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors.
Found strong pro-sustainability attitudes but uneven knowledge and weaker behavioral engagement among pupils.
Demonstrated an attitude-behavior gap, with environmental aspects being more prominent than social or economic ones.
Established that attitudes serve as a central connection between knowledge and behavior.

Crespo-Martín et al. (2026) studied this question.
