Abstract While the virus SARS-CoV-2 spreads all over the world, most countries have taken severe measures to protect their citizens and slow down the further spread of the disease COVID-19. These measures affect individuals, communities, cities, countries, and the entire planet. In this paper, we propose that the tremendous consequences of the corona crisis invite environmental psychology to focus more strongly on research questions that address major societal challenges from a collective psychology perspective. In particular, we stress that the corona crisis may affect how people appraise – and potentially respond to – the looming climate crisis. By consistently pointing out systemic links and their human factor, environmental psychology can become central to a scientific agenda of a sustainable ‘post-corona society’. In order to provide a framework for future research towards a sustainable societal transformation, we build on the Social Identity Model of Pro-Environmental Action (SIMPEA) and extend its scope to understand people's responses following the corona crisis. The model allows predictions of previously not explicitly included concepts of place attachment, nature connectedness, basic psychological needs, and systems thinking. It may serve as a guiding framework for a better understanding of the transformation towards a sustainable future.

SARS-Cov-2 与环境保护：环境心理学研究的集体心理学议程

摘要 虽然 SARS-CoV-2 病毒在世界范围内传播，但大多数国家/地区都采取了严厉措施来保护其公民并减缓 COVID-19 疾病的进一步传播。这些措施影响个人、社区、城市、国家和整个地球。在本文中，我们提出，新冠危机的巨大后果促使环境心理学更加关注从集体心理学角度解决重大社会挑战的研究问题。我们特别强调，新冠危机可能会影响人们对迫在眉睫的气候危机的评价和潜在应对方式。通过始终如一地指出系统联系及其人为因素，环境心理学可以成为可持续“后新冠社会”科学议程的核心。为了为未来可持续社会转型的研究提供框架，我们建立了亲环境行动社会认同模型 (SIMPEA) 并扩展其范围以了解人们在电晕危机后的反应。该模型允许预测以前未明确包含的地方依恋、自然联系、基本心理需求和系统思考等概念。它可以作为更好地理解向可持续未来转型的指导框架。该模型允许预测以前未明确包含的地方依恋、自然联系、基本心理需求和系统思考等概念。它可以作为更好地理解向可持续未来转型的指导框架。该模型允许预测以前未明确包含的地方依恋、自然联系、基本心理需求和系统思考等概念。它可以作为更好地理解向可持续未来转型的指导框架。
