Detecting and classifying eco-anxiety: development of clinical cut-off scores for the climate change anxiety scale
The proposed cut-offs can feasibly be used to identify those with elevated climate change anxiety. Use of these cut-off scores can inform research as well as be used to guide screening, assessment, and inform clinical practice. Results also highlight a high rate of climate change anxiety in young adults.
