Main finding reveals limitations in the new climate anxiety scale, as it lacks incremental validity over existing measures.
Key evidence shows that of 129 initial items pooled, only 22 were retained based on model assumptions and expert feedback.
Approach comprised a mixed-method assessment involving sampling from general public and university students over three studies.
Significance lies in highlighting the necessity for validation of existing scales due to the newly proposed scale's limitations.
