Abstract / Description

This study aims to investigate the associations between social dominance orientation (SDO), ecological dominance orientation (EDO), climate change denial (CCD), and past pro-environmental behavior (PEB). A total of 348 individuals aged between 18 and 61 years (M = 22.27; SD = 4.80) participated in this study. Results showed that SDO predicted all forms of CCD and past PEB, but EDO only predicted denial of guilt. Additionally, rationalization of own involvement dimension of CCD, but not other dimensions of it, predicted past PEB. Moreover, gender was a predictor of five dimensions of CCD and past PEB.
