Abstract
Purpose. This study evaluated the validity and reliability of the Korean Climate Change Anxiety Scale (CCAS) translation. Design and Methods. Data were collected using an online survey from January 17 to January 26, 2022, from 459 adults aged 19–65 years. Exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were performed, and Cronbach’s α and intraclass correlation coefficient were evaluated. Findings. The CCAS’s Korean version can be used as an effective tool because its validity and reliability have been verified. Practice Implications. Studies examining climate change anxiety can help protect human security against climate change-induced disasters and achieve sustainable development goals.
