This article explores the effect of cognitive abilities on environmental awareness using data from 119 countries for the period 2005–2015. Our findings provide pioneering confirmation that a facet of human psychology, namely cognitive ability, is positively associated with environmentalism. The empirical estimations indicate that when cognitive abilities increase by one standard deviation, climate change awareness increases by approximately 19% (slightly less than one standard deviation). This positive association remains intact when we control for other determinants of environmentalism.

认知能力与环境意识之间是否存在联系?跨国证据

本文使用2005年至2015年期间119个国家/地区的数据,探讨了认知能力对环境意识的影响。我们的发现提供了开创性的证实,即人类心理学的一个方面,即认知能力,与环境保护主义正相关。实证估计表明,当认知能力增加一个标准差时,气候变化意识会增加大约19%(略小于一个标准差)。当我们控制环境主义的其他决定因素时,这种积极的联系仍然完好无损。
