Do you use the DERS? Do you know what it measures? Neither do I, but we may be getting somewhere. We looked for evidence of construct validity in 10 years worth of papers in a new study out in JOBA. #emotion #emotiondysregulation #psychopathology #meta-analysis

We tested 10 behavioral interventions to mitigate #climatechange in 63 countries (N = 59,440)

The interventions’ effectiveness was small, largely limited to non-climate skeptics, and differed across outcomes.

Our paper is in Science Advances : www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

In a new paper, we examined 11 interventions to address #climatechange beliefs and behavior (M = 59,440 in 63 countries).

These findings suggest that the impact of behavioral climate interventions varies across audiences and target behaviors.
