Abstract Background The Arab world is one of the global regions most directly concerned by, and suffering from climate change’s adverse consequences.

Providing valid reliable measures change anxiety (CCA) can help gain clear overview situation in countries, allow intervene timely effectively mitigate any effects on people’s mental health. To this end, present study sought validate Arabic language version Climate Change Anxiety Scale (CCAS) sample native Arabic-speaking adults general population Lebanon. Methods This adopted cross-sectional approach enrolled 763 between July September 2023. Results A confirmatory analysis one-factor model showed poor fit indices as follows: CFI = .90, GFI .83, SRMR .048 RMSEA .131 [90% CI .123, .138). two-factor satisfactory with high 0.91 0.04 0.05 0.04, 0.06]. Both McDonald’s omega Cronbach alpha values were overall CCAS score (α .96 ω .96) whole sample. Configural, metric scalar invariance across gender was demonstrated. No significant difference found males females terms total scores (24.53 ± 10.59 vs 26.03 11.17, t(761) -1.82, p .069). Higher CCA, functional impairment cognitive significantly associated higher depression, stress. Conclusion reliability validity its proven. availability self-report measure could offer chance assess CCA among Adults speaking Arabic, spread future use screening research purposes.

A methodology was followed. MEDLINE, PsycINFO, Web Science databases were searched from inception May 2022. Comprehensive gray literature search, including expert consultation, conducted identify for which peer-reviewed academic may not yet be available. Data intervention type, setting, stressor, outcome, evaluation, any other available details extracted, results summarized narratively. Academic search identified 16 records a further 24 records. Altogether, 37 unique or packages identified. act levels microsystem, mesosystem, exosystem, macrosystem through diverse mechanisms. While most have been formally evaluated, promising preliminary support in low- middle-income-country settings disproportionately affected by disasters. Interventions multidisciplinary fields are emerging reduce psychological distress enhance context This summarizes gaps lessons learned inform continued development scale-up interventions.

The search strategy structured capture three elements through various keywords terms: emotions, change, surveys. total 43 manuscripts met study inclusion criteria. Among manuscripts, 28% focused specifically people, while other studies included sample did not focus exclusively people. number using surveys examine among increased substantially since 2020.

Introduction Australia’s diverse climate and temperatures render it susceptible to adverse extreme weather events, the impacts on social, emotional psychological wellbeing are complex. Recent studies in Poland, Ireland Norway validated a multi-dimensional integrative assessment of eco-emotions tool, Inventory Climate Emotions (ICE). Methods Given variations geographical, climatic, political cultural factors experienced worldwide, is necessary evaluate ICE across countries. This study first validation an Australian sample ( N = 659), provides evidence its structure, reliability validity. Results Confirmatory factor analysis indicated good fit after removal one item from isolation subscale, with model indices CFI 0.96, TLI 0.95, SRMR 0.045, RMSEA 0.049. The demonstrated strong internal consistency, Cronbach’s alphas ranging 0.79 0.94, moderate test–retest all subscales except for Powerlessness (ICC 0.48 0.74). Convergent validity was supported by significant positive correlations between Hogg Eco-Anxiety Scale, while divergent through weak or non-significant Riverside Life Satisfaction Scale. Discussion As not developed Australia, may account full range unique ecological socio-cultural context. However, this important initial support use Australia suggests that some emotions be common cultures.
