چکیده
Several recent studies have debated whether climate change consensus messages cause reactance, although they sometimes employ different procedures and measurement. This study uses measures from competing to allow for a comparison of the respective approaches. We find that particularly among Republicans those who do not believe in anthropogenic change. These findings highlight concerns messaging strategies may be ineffective or backfire audiences science communicators are most keen target.
