“…For example, where people believe climate impacts take place might be influenced by their mental models (Bostrom, 2017) of climate change, but also by their sources of climate information (e.g., media, social circle) and their willingness to take in new information (e.g., through Bayesian updating; Cook & Lewandowsky, 2016). How they feel towards those locations might be impacted by the physical distance between the locations and themselves (often used as PD), but also their familiarity with them (Yang et al, 2020), whether they care about them (Objects of Care, Wang, Leviston, Hurlstone, Lawrence, & Walker, 2018), whether they feel similar to and identify with the people in the impacted places (global identity, e.g., Loy, Reese, & Spence, 2021;Social Identity Approach, e.g., Mackay, Schmitt, Lutz, & Mendel, 2021), as well as personal characteristics such as empathy (e. g., Chu & Yang, 2019) or cognitive styles (e.g., holistic and analytical thinking, e.g., Sacchi et al, 2016).…”
