Public perception of climate risk and adaptation in the UK: A review of the literature (2014, background): “…suggested that acceptance of developments depends on the extent to which the developments are perceived to fit the symbolic meaning of the specific place; for instance, with support for novel developments when place attachment is less characterised as being ‘anti-change’ (Devine-Wright, 2011).”
Decomposing public support for energy policy: What drives acceptance of and intentions to protest against renewable energy expansion in Germany? (2019, background): “Devine-Wright (2011) explores the effect of place attachment on the acceptance of a tidal energy project at two different sites, finding a significant positive effect of place attachment.”

Place attachment and natural hazard risk: Research review and agenda (2016, background): “…(Bonaiuto, Fornara, Ariccio, Ganucci Cancellieri, & Rahimi, 2015); perceptions of technology implementation, such as a tidal energy projects (Devine-Wright, 2011); pro-environmental behaviours (Carrus, Scopelliti, Fornara, Bonnes, & Bonaiuto, 2014); contexts of stigma and displacement…”
Explaining “NIMBY” Objections to a Power Line (2013, background): “…they have led academics to consistently argue that “NIMBYism” is unhelpful and that public acceptance will be enhanced by more participatory decision-making procedures (e.g., Bell, Gray, & Haggett, 2005; Devine-Wright, 2011b), contrasted with a “top down” model of technology siting (Wolsink, 2007).”
Rural public acceptance of renewable energy deployment: The case of Shandong in China (Online first) (2013, methodology): “Differently, other studies would focus on individual intention and behavior with a view of social– psychological view [13] such as environmental activism, and quantitative analysis was widely applied for these studies [14–17].”
Public acceptance and preferences related to renewable energy and grid expansion policy: Empirical insights for Germany (2016, neutral): “By contrast, Devine-Wright [13] does not find a significant impact of age in driving the acceptance of energy projects.”
The risk of social-psychological disruption as an impact of energy development and environmental change (2014, methodology): “Because there are nearly an infinite number of potential place meanings, there is a need to use exploratory methods such as focus groups (Devine-Wright 2011), interviews (Davenport and Anderson 2005), resident-employed photography or other media content analysis (Stedman et al. 2004; Beckley et al.…”
