Measuring 'subjective resilience': using peoples' perceptions to quantify household resilience (2015, neutral): “…subjective elements of resilience are associated with a range of issues such as perception of risk, sense of place, beliefs and culture, social norms, social cohesion, power and 8 ODI Report marginalisation, and cultural identity (Grothmann and Patt, 2005; Adger et al., 2009; Clayton et al,. 2015).”
Perceived Self-Efficacy and Adaptation to Climate Change in Coastal Cambodia (2015, background): “Furthermore, works on the negative impacts of climate change have pointed out that whether or not an individual will take proactive steps hinges on how they perceive their own ability to enact these steps [17,29,46].”
Individual preferences for reducing flood risk to near zero through elevation (2013, background): “Individual decisions to invest in climate change adaptation measures are further influenced by perceptions of risk and climate change impacts (Grothmann and Pat 2005).”
Adoption of climate‐smart agriculture among smallholder farmers: Does farmer entrepreneurship matter? (2021, background): “Relating to the adaptive capacity as a behavioural characteristic, Grothmann and Patt (2005) describes it as the capacity to learn and to respond flexibly to environmental and socioeconomic changes.”
Individual Adaptation to Climate Change: The Role of Information and Perceived Risk (2010, background): “Two case studies carried out by Grothmann and Patt (2005) are among the few that look decidedly into cognitive factors affecting adaptive capacity.”
Agent-based model simulations of future changes in migration flows for Burkina Faso (2011, background): “Grothmann and Patt (2005) present a process model of private proactive adaptation to climate change (MPPACC) which separates out the psychological steps to taking action in response to perceptions of climate.”
Assessing vulnerability of selected farming communities in the Philippines based on a behavioural model of agent's adaptation to global environmental change (2008, background): “To date, very few studies have represented models of human behaviour or cognition in assessing vulnerability to global environmental change (e.g. Ziervogel et al., 2005; Grothmann and Patt, 2005; Acosta-Michlik, 2005; Acosta-Michlik and Rounsevell, 2008).”
Limits to adaptation to climate change: a risk approach (2013, background): “adaptation goals is a relatively recent development, yet one that emerges from earlier research about adaptive capacity [28–30].”
