• The nature, significance, and influence of perceived personal experience of climate change (2020, background): “…responsedetermining, ‘tampering with nature,’ factor strongly differentiating climate change from other ‘natural’ environmental risk domains (e.g., Breakwell, 2010; Hansen, 2006; Hilton, 2007; Lee, Markowitz, Howe, Ko, & Leiserowitz, 2015; McDaniels et al., 1995; Reser & Bradley, 2017).”
• Determinants and Measurement of Climate Change Risk Perception, Worry, and Concern (2017, background): “In particular, people often rely on what is called an “affective pool,” which essentially includes all the positive and negative associations that people hold in memory with respect to a given risk object (Breakwell, 2010).”
• The social-psychological determinants of climate change risk perceptions: Towards a comprehensive model (2015, background): “As an object of risk representation, climate change is relatively unique (Breakwell, 2010).”
