Abstract
The current study develops and evaluates a production-based measure of climate change attitudes, titled the Climate Action Readiness Index (CARI), using a stages of change model. The CARI exhibited good interrater reliability and theory-consistent validity, supporting the use of the CARI as a measure of climate action readiness.
