This study develops a model of climate change behavioral intention with nomadic herders in Mongolia. Climate change is creating unrelenting hardship by degrading pastures and fragile ecosystems that nomadic herders rely on for survival and by increasing the frequency of extreme weather threats. The model considers the relationships among resource loss, stress, coping and social support, posttraumatic growth, climate change knowledge, norms, and risk perceptions with climate change behavioral intention. The project was conducted in remote regions of the Gobi desert and mountainous areas of Western Mongolia (referred to as one of the most remote places on Earth), and the logistical challenges were formidable. The research team traveled great distances in 4x4 vehicles to locate nomadic herders, camped on the steppes and plains, and carried supplies to be self-sufficient for almost three weeks. The participants were 287 (141 men, 146 women) nomadic herders (age: M = 41, SD = 13) who completed standardized measures. The structural equation model shows two pathways to climate change behavioral intentions: (1) community norms concerning climate change actions are directly associated with climate change behavioral intentions, and (2) resource loss, biospheric and altruistic values, and climate change knowledge were associated with positive stress response, which was associated with climate change risk perceptions. Risk perceptions were associated with behavioral intentions. The findings support and extend a model of behavioral adaptation developed by the authors in the South Pacific. Implications of the findings are discussed.

气候变化威胁蒙古的游牧:气候变化风险感知和行为适应的模型

这项研究建立了一个蒙古游牧民的气候变化行为意图模型。气候变化正在使牧民放牧赖以生存的牧场和脆弱的生态系统退化,并增加极端天气威胁的发生频率,造成了不懈的艰辛。该模型考虑了资源损失,压力,应对和社会支持,创伤后增长,气候变化知识,规范以及风险感知与气候变化行为意图之间的关系。该项目是在戈壁沙漠的偏远地区和蒙古西部的山区(被称为地球上最偏远的地区之一)进行的,后勤方面的挑战是巨大的。研究小组乘坐4x4车辆行驶很长一段距离,找到了在草原和平原上扎营的游牧牧民,并运送了将近三个星期的自给物资。参与者是完成标准措施的287名游牧牧民(141名男性,146名女性)(年龄:M = 41,SD = 13)。结构方程模型显示了实现气候变化行为意图的两种途径:(1)有关气候变化行为的社区规范与气候变化行为意图直接相关;(2)资源损失,生物圈和利他价值以及气候变化知识与积极的压力反应,这与气候变化风险感知有关。风险感知与行为意图有关。这些发现支持并扩展了南太平洋作者开发的行为适应模型。讨论结果的含义。参与者是完成标准措施的287名游牧牧民(141名男性,146名女性)(年龄:M = 41,SD = 13)。结构方程模型显示了实现气候变化行为意图的两种途径:(1)有关气候变化行为的社区规范与气候变化行为意图直接相关;(2)资源损失,生物圈和利他价值以及气候变化知识与积极的压力反应,这与气候变化风险感知有关。风险感知与行为意图有关。这些发现支持并扩展了南太平洋作者开发的行为适应模型。讨论结果的含义。参与者是完成标准措施的287名游牧牧民(141名男性,146名女性)(年龄:M = 41,SD = 13)。结构方程模型显示了实现气候变化行为意图的两种途径:(1)有关气候变化行为的社区规范与气候变化行为意图直接相关;(2)资源损失,生物圈和利他价值以及气候变化知识与积极的压力反应,这与气候变化风险感知有关。风险感知与行为意图有关。这些发现支持并扩展了南太平洋作者开发的行为适应模型。讨论结果的含义。结构方程模型显示了实现气候变化行为意图的两种途径:(1)有关气候变化行为的社区规范与气候变化行为意图直接相关;(2)资源损失,生物圈和利他价值以及气候变化知识与积极的压力反应,这与气候变化风险感知有关。风险感知与行为意图有关。这些发现支持并扩展了南太平洋作者开发的行为适应模型。讨论结果的含义。结构方程模型显示了实现气候变化行为意图的两种途径:(1)有关气候变化行为的社区规范与气候变化行为意图直接相关;(2)资源损失,生物圈和利他价值以及气候变化知识与积极的压力反应,这与气候变化风险感知有关。风险感知与行为意图有关。这些发现支持并扩展了南太平洋作者开发的行为适应模型。讨论结果的含义。生物圈和利他价值,以及气候变化知识与正向压力反应相关,而正向压力响应与气候变化风险感知有关。风险感知与行为意图有关。这些发现支持并扩展了南太平洋作者开发的行为适应模型。讨论结果的含义。生物圈和利他价值,以及气候变化知识与正向压力反应相关,而正向压力响应与气候变化风险感知有关。风险感知与行为意图有关。这些发现支持并扩展了南太平洋作者开发的行为适应模型。讨论结果的含义。
