Motivating Action through Fostering Climate Change Hope and Concern and Avoiding Despair among Adolescents (2015, background): “These two aspects of hope may serve to counteract despair because they specifically address its sources: feelings that there are no adequate solutions for climate change challenges and that individuals cannot make a difference [9,11].”
Guilt, anger, and pride about in-group environmental behaviour: Different emotions predict distinct intentions (2013, background): “Instead, fearful individuals seem to cope with the threat of climate change by relying on their group to engage in collective action (Van Zomeren et al., 2010).”
“Proximising” climate change reconsidered: A construal level theory perspective (2016, background): “Contrary to what could be expected from the literature (e.g., Meijnders et al., 2001; Van Zomeren et al., 2010), in the distant condition, fear was significantly negatively (rather than positively) related to support for mitigation policies, ß = -.32, t = -2.02, p = .05.”
Impact of fear appeals on pro-environmental behavior and crucial determinants (2016, methodology): “In the high-fear appeal condition, in addition to the combination of the narrative script by van Zomeren, Spears, and Leach (2010) and the Taiwanese context, the recruited participants (n D 74) were shown a picture of a polar bear that was starved to death and explanatory notes as the fear appeal…”

Coping strategies, engagement, and well-being (2012, unknown): “Studies with adults have shown that self-efficacy and collective efficacy (group efficacy) in relation to environmental issues seem to be two separate concepts (Homburg & Stolberg, 2006; Van Zomeren et al., 2010).”
