主要内容：

Much research has examined individuals’ values and beliefs as antecedents of pro-environmental behaviors (PEB). I approach this question from the novel perspective of cosmopolitan orientation (CO). I define CO as made up of three essential qualities: cultural openness, global prosociality, and respect for cultural diversity.  In this talk, I will first present two studies that validated the Cosmopolitan Orientation Scale (COS) with theoretically related criterion measures across Singaporean, Australian, and American samples.  Next, in two studies I will demonstrate the theoretical utility of studying CO in motivating pro-environmentalism.  Study 1 showed that CO predicts PEB above and beyond pro-environmental worldview, motivation, and belief. Study 2 tested the mediating and moderating roles of individuals’ socio-cultural orientations, namely CO, perceived social mobility, and social dominance orientation (SDO) in the study of PEB. This theoretical integration bridges pro-environmentalism research with different facets of individuals’ socio-cultural orientations pertaining to the societal structure (social mobility), cultural openness and respect (CO), and group-based hierarchy and inequality (SDO).  This perspective advances an integrative approach demonstrating how the interplay of people’s perceptions about the social, cultural, and group standing impacts the likelihood of pro-environmental actions. I will discuss the implications that an egalitarian worldview toward other cultures, social groups, and human-nature relations might be key to addressing the global challenge of climate change.

本研究主要从一个新颖的视角-Cosmopolitan Orientation Scale (COS)-来关注这一个人信念是如何影响环保行为的。本次讲座将报告两个检验COS量表效度的研究。该量表的效度通过新加坡、澳大利亚和美国样本的数据，以及理论相关的校标测量进行检验。之后两个研究则进一步检验COS对环保行为的影响，以及多种个体社会-文化倾向的中介作用和调节作用。本研究提供了一个整合的视角，揭示了人们对于社会、文化和群体地位的感知是如何共同作用影响环保行为的。
