Understanding pro‐environmental intentions by integrating insights from social mobility, cosmopolitanism, and social dominance

Abstract: To offer an integrative account bridging individuals' sociocultural orientations with pro-environmentalism, the current research tested the mediating and moderating relationships among pro-environmental intentions and three person-level factors: perceived social mobility, cosmopolitan orientation, and social dominance orientation (SDO). With a Singaporean college student sample (N = 220), we found support for the hypothesized second-stage moderation model that perceived social mobility positively predicts cosm… Show more

“…Past research has reasoned that a global identity might be related to people’s motivation to address global environmental crises (e.g., Batalha and Reynolds, 2012 ; Reese, 2016 ). Positive relations were found with pro-environmental attitudes (e.g., Reysen and Katzarska-Miller, 2013 ; Lee et al, 2015 ; Reysen and Hackett, 2016 ; Assis et al, 2017 ), pro-environmental behavioural intentions and behaviours (e.g., Der-Karabetian et al, 2014 ; Lee et al, 2015 ; Rosenmann et al, 2016 ; Renger and Reese, 2017 ; Joanes, 2019 ; Leung and Koh, 2019 ; Loy and Reese, 2019 ), and the support of pro-environmental policies and organisations (e.g., Leung et al, 2015 ; Brieger, 2019 ; Loy and Reese, 2019 ).…”

“…In a few studies, ideologies were operationalised in terms of political partisanship (Bolsen & Druckman, 2018;Ehret et al, 2018). Notably, the most predominant ideological variable in this pool of research is social dominance orientation and its close associate, right-wing authoritarianism (Clarke et al, 2019;H€ akkinen & Akrami, 2014;Jylh€ a & Akrami, 2015;Jylh€ a et al, 2016;Leung & Koh, 2019;Milfont et al, 2013;Stanley, Wilson, Sibley, & Milfont, 2017). A general conclusion from these studies is that some people deny the existence of the problem of climate change and hence display inaction partly because the solutions needed to address the problem conflict with the values and ideologies these people hold (i.e., solution aversion; Campbell & Kay, 2014).…”

“…To fill this gap, Leung et al (2015) comprehensively reviewed the literature on cosmopolitanism, focusing their attention on theoretical rather than empirical writing, to generate a new, comprehensive, and psychologically compelling measure. 1 Their review and empirical research identified three factors of cosmopolitanism at the individual level: cultural openness, global prosociality, and respect for cultural diversity (see also Leung & Koh, 2019).…”
