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.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
