This study aims to understand the influence of mirth, anger, and hope, as elicited by messages with different humor types, on support for global warming action, and the potential moderating role of individual climate concern. Although mirth did not significantly vary across the different stimuli, the analysis found that climate concern moderated the influence of hope on support for global warming actions. The implications of these findings, especially for respondents who were least supportive of actions to combat global warming, are discussed.
本研究旨在探讨通过不同类型幽默的信息引发的欢笑、愤怒和希望对支持全球变暖行动的影响，以及个体气候关注的潜在调节作用。尽管欢笑在不同刺激下没有显著变化，但分析发现，气候关注调节了希望对支持全球变暖行动的影响。讨论了这些发现的意义，特别是对于最不支持采取行动应对全球变暖的受访者。
