从社会心理学的角度来看，应对气候变化的威胁不仅涉及向被动个体传授客观事实的教育，还涉及社会化过程。社会影响力三方整合模型（TIMSI）提供了一个理论框架，将获取气候变化知识与融入社区联系起来，从而使人们更多地参与气候友好型行为。调查数据收集自圣地亚哥县 1000 名居民。措施包括(a) 关于气候变化的知识； (b) 自我效能，他们认为自己可以采取哪些有利于环境的行动； (c) 身份，他们在多大程度上认定自己是关注气候变化的社区的一部分； (d) 价值观，对关注气候变化的社区价值观的认可； (e) 有利于环境的行为，参与保护行为。结果表明，自我效能感和价值观调节了知识与环保行为之间的关系。
From a social psychological perspective, addressing the threats of climate change involves not only education, which imparts objective facts upon a passive individual, but also a socializing process. The Tripartite Integration Model of Social Influence (TIMSI) provides a theoretical framework that connects acquiring climate change knowledge with integration into a community, which results in greater engagement in climate friendly behaviors. Survey data were collected from 1000 residents in San Diego County. Measures included (a) knowledge about climate change; (b) self-efficacy, what pro-environmental actions they felt they could do; (c) identity, to what extent they identified as part of a community that is concerned about climate change; (d) values, endorsement of values of the community that is concerned about climate change; and (e) pro-environmental behavior, engagement in conservation behaviors. Results indicated that self-efficacy and values mediated the relationship between knowledge and pro-environmental behavior.
