With a foreword by @chrisgpackham.bsky.social, this powerful collection reveals the raw, personal stories of scientists confronting the planetary emergency—and why they couldn’t stay silent.

The insights collected through this review provide practical advice for developing closed-answer surveys that robustly and usefully measure key determinants of pro-environmental behaviour. /end

We synthesize design considerations for different question formats, such as using validated measures, reducing cognitive burden and biases, and using best practices for scale questions. /5

A recent review did a great job summarizing the behavioural determinants of pro-environmental behaviour. Hunter Doughty and I built on it by providing practical insights into how 17 key pro-environmental behavioural determinants can be measured through surveys.

However, despite (a lot of) published criticism of poor survey design, there is little practical guidance on how to capture these determinants accurately in closed-answer surveys (those with predefined answer options). /3

There are many factors influence whether someone engages in pro-environmental behaviour, and understanding these determinants is super important to efforts to protect the natural environment. /2
