The Effect Of Gross Regional Domestic Product, Total Motor Vehicle And Population Density On Environmental Quality In Java Island In 2011-2022

Abstract

The objective of this study is to determine the influence of regional gross domestic product, the number of motor vehicles, and population density on the quality of the environment in Java Island from 2011 to 2022. The research method employed in this study is in the form of panel data from 2011 to 2022 in six provinces on Java Island with the Fixed Effect Model (FEM) method. Data is presented annually and obtained from the BPS and the Environmental Quality Index in the provinces of Java Island. Based on the results of partial analysis, the quality of the environment is strongly influenced by the variables of regional gross domestic product, the number of motor vehicles, and population density, as indicated by the probability values smaller than (0.05). Simultaneously, all research variables have a significant effect on environmental quality, with an influence shown by the Adjusted R-squared value of 72.33%, while the remaining 26.67% is influenced by other factors outside the model.
