Abstract

This research addresses the problem of resistance and support for climate mitigation policies. Studies have shown that personal values influence political orientations. However, it needs to be clarified what values motivate individuals to resist climate policies. Using hierarchical regression, we show that Social Dominance Orientation is a significant predictor of climate policy support and that Deference to Prestige does not have a strong relationship with climate policy support. Our findings are significant because they provide additional evidence that ideology and values relate to support for climate mitigation policies.
