Abstract: | This is a cross-sectional study that investigated whether the emotions climate anxiety and climate concern mediated the relationship of the variables information-seeking, generalised anxiety, nature relatedness, mindfulness, and self-efficacy on pro-environmental behaviour. The findings were that climate anxiety significantly partially mediated the relationship between nature relatedness and generalised anxiety with PEB and climate concern significantly partially mediated the relationship between information seeking, nature relatedness and generalised anxiety with pro-environmental behaviour. The other variables that were included in the analysis, mindfulness, and self-efficacy, did not have a significant effect on climate anxiety, climate concern or pro-environmental behaviour. |
