Survey study of CCUS/Climate Change Adaptation or Mitigation Behavior


Developing pre-intervention scales of pro-environmental behavior

Key Problem

$$ F(Personal Predictors,EnvirPredictor,…)=TargetIntervetion $$

$$ While: Predictors → Intervention → Effectsizes $$

That is, using categorical variables to predict categorical variable by literature screening.

Method

  1. Review key influences and its target behavior change
  2. Set up numerical or categorical relationships between personal
  3. characteristics and suitable intervention method
  4. Test the effective
  5. Building Shiny APP or Scale Wrapper
