Implication

Experiments unveil how political efficacy and protest repression influence motivation for climate protest, suggesting implications for mobilization efforts.

Key Points

Motivation to engage in climate protest is influenced by perceived political efficacy and protest repression, shaping action intentions indirectly.
Political efficacy positively impacts normative action intentions by enhancing beliefs in personal contribution and movement strength.
The repression of protests may result in increased moral outrage, driving both normative and non-normative action intentions among individuals affected by climate change concerns and politicized identity rather than direct effects on intentions. The experimental design involved 443 UK residents under existing anti-protest laws, manipulating efficacy and repression through news articles.
