基于风险信息寻找和处理模型（RISP），本研究试图分离公众对全球变暖知识的预测因子。使用全国样本（N = 805），多元回归得出了13个调节因子之间的一些显著关系。值得注意的是，用于全球变暖信息的媒体来源数量、信息寻求努力和通识教育是相对较强的知识预测因子。与预期相反，信息主观规范与知识呈负相关。
Derived from the risk information seeking and processing model (RISP), this study sought to isolate predictors of the public's knowledge of global warming. Using a national sample (N = 805), multiple regression yielded a number of significant relationships among 13 moderators. Notably, the number of media sources used for information about global warming, information seeking effort, and general education were relatively strong predictors of knowledge. Counter to expectations, informational subjective norms were inversely related to knowledge.
