- Abstract
The Climate Change Denial Scale was adapted to Turkish. Moreover, group differences in climate change denial regarding gender and educational level were investigated. Further, it was aimed to examine the relationships between climate change denial, ecological belief in a just world (EBJW), and social dominance orientation (SDO). The sample consisted of 275 participants aged from 18 to 78 years old (M =28.57, SD =10.36; 70.5% women). The results revealed that there was a significant effect of education in climate change denial scores. Participants with a postgraduate degree were less likely to deny climate change than the participants who had a two-year degree and were undergraduates. Further, results showed that climate change denial was positively associated with both EBJW and SDO and SDO mediated the relationship between EBJW and SDO. Implications are discussed.
