Abstract
Experiencing climate-change-related extreme weather causes so-called maladaptive psychological reactions. However, the psychological reactions can be adaptive when they lead to proactive behaviors such as purchasing an insurance policy. The current exploratory and confirmatory online studies elucidated that psychological reactions have the potential to promote proactive behavior.
