Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Social science
  • Social psychology
  • Management

Her primary areas of study are Social psychology, Environmental resource management, Energy, Public engagement and Perception. Lorraine Whitmarsh has researched Social psychology in several fields, including Demographic economics and Skepticism. Her Environmental resource management research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Natural resource economics, Scientific evidence and Everyday life.

Lorraine Whitmarsh combines Public engagement and Legislation in her research. She interconnects Political economy of climate change, Global warming, Regional science, Qualitative research and Empirical research in the investigation of issues within Perception. Her work deals with themes such as Dependency, Control and Qualitative property, which intersect with Public relations.

Her most cited work include:

  • Barriers perceived to engaging with climate change among the UK public and their policy implications (1242 citations)
  • Green identity, green living? The role of pro-environmental self-identity in determining consistency across diverse pro-environmental behaviours (750 citations)
  • Scepticism and uncertainty about climate change: Dimensions, determinants and change over time (485 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Social psychology, Public relations, Environmental resource management, Public engagement and Environmental planning. Lorraine Whitmarsh combines topics linked to Skepticism with her work on Social psychology. Public relations is closely attributed to Public economics in her work.

The Public economics study combines topics in areas such as Climate change mitigation and Action. Her studies deal with areas such as Global warming, Sustainable transport, Environmental economics and Perception as well as Environmental resource management. In her works, she undertakes multidisciplinary study on Public engagement and Situated.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Social psychology (15.34%)
  • Public relations (14.11%)
  • Environmental resource management (12.88%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Spillover effect (5.52%)
  • Action (7.98%)
  • Context (6.13%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Lorraine Whitmarsh mainly investigates Spillover effect, Action, Context, Social psychology and Environmental economics. Her study with Action involves better knowledge in Social science. Her Social psychology research incorporates elements of Social environment and Association.

Her Association study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Theory of planned behavior, Structural equation modeling and Attribution. Her study in Environmental economics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Car ownership and Business model. Lorraine Whitmarsh focuses mostly in the field of Identity, narrowing it down to topics relating to Consistency and, in certain cases, Survey methodology and Sample.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Climate change perceptions and their individual-level determinants: A cross-European analysis (77 citations)
  • Framing effects on public support for carbon capture and storage (26 citations)
  • Citizen Social Science for More Integrative and Effective Climate Action: A Science-Policy Perspective (23 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Social science
  • Social psychology
  • Management

Lorraine Whitmarsh focuses on Action, Environmental economics, Climate change mitigation, Economic problem and Business model. Action is a primary field of her research addressed under Social science. Her Environmental economics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Framing effect, Reuse and Carbon capture and storage.

Her Climate change mitigation study combines topics in areas such as Engineering ethics and Psychological research. Engineering ethics and Global warming are frequently intertwined in her study. Her Global warming research includes themes of Feeling, Moral responsibility and Public economics.
