Overview

Longitudinal study assesses the impact of COVID-19 on travelers' climate change concerns, highlighting emotional factors.

Key Points

  • This research examines how travelers' concerns about climate change have evolved due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • Utilized self-reported data from 6,354 European frequent travelers across three waves: December 2020, March 2023, and June 2024.
  • Evaluated the influence of negative emotions, personality traits, and risk perceptions on climate change concerns.
  • Post-pandemic, negative emotions more strongly influence climate change concerns compared to personality traits and risk perception.
  • The shift in determinants demonstrates a significant change in how climate concerns are shaped by emotional responses.
