日本語

ヨルダンの大学生1,305人を対象に、気候変動認識と気候関連不安を調査。認識は高いが、国家政策への認知は低く、熱波や干ばつを主要リスクと認識。不安は女性・既婚者・精神疾患歴と関連。気候教育と若者の政策参加の重要性を提言。

English

A cross-sectional survey of 1,305 university students in Jordan assessed climate change awareness and anxiety. Awareness was high (87% for climate change), but only 23% knew the national climate policy. Heatwaves, drought, and forest fires were top perceived threats. Anxiety was linked to female sex, marital status, and mental health history. Calls for integrating climate education and youth participation in governance.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters

日本のGX文脈において

日本でも若者の気候不安（エコ不安）が注目される中、本調査は気候変動認識と政策認知のギャップを定量的に示す。日本の次期NCD・気候教育施策にも参考となるが、ヨルダン特有の脆弱性に焦点があり、直接応用は限られる。

In the global GX context

This paper adds psychosocial evidence from a climate-vulnerable Middle Eastern country, highlighting the gap between awareness and policy familiarity. While Japan has different climate risks, the findings on anxiety correlates (gender, mental health) and the call for youth engagement resonate with global climate resilience and education frameworks.

👥 読者別の含意

🔬研究者:Provides validated scales (CCPAS, CCAS) and regression models linking demographics to climate anxiety, useful for comparative cross-country studies.

🏢実務担当者:Limited direct applicability; may inform university sustainability officers on student engagement needs.

🏛政策担当者:Reinforces the need to communicate national climate strategies effectively to youth, relevant for Jordan's adaptation planning.

📄 Abstract（原文）

Background: Jordan is increasingly recognized as a climate-vulnerable setting in the region, yet evidence on the psychosocial dimensions of climate change among young adults remains limited. Led by the Jordan Center for Disease Control, this study assessed climate change perceptual awareness and climate-related anxiety among university students and explored perceptions of climate impacts at global and national levels. Methods: In a cross-sectional survey conducted between April and May 2025, 1305 students were recruited from universities across Jordan using a questionnaire incorporating the 15-item Climate Change Perceptual Awareness Scale and the 13-item Climate Change Anxiety Scale. Results: Awareness of climate change and global warming was high (87% and 96%, respectively), yet only 23% were familiar with Jordan’s National Climate Change Policy 2022–2050. In regression analyses, higher climate anxiety was associated with female sex, married status, larger household size, diagnosed mental health conditions, and central-region university enrolment. Higher perceptual awareness was associated with female sex, older age, and the recognition of multidimensional climate impacts. Students identified heatwaves, drought, and forest fires as principal environmental threats, and respiratory and heat-related illnesses as foremost health concerns. Conclusions: Our findings position climate change as not only an environmental concern, but also as an educational, psychological, and public health priority. To support effective adaptation and resilience, climate awareness must be translated into informed engagement and action. Integrating climate and climate-health education into university curricula, improving youth-responsive communication of national climate strategies, and creating formal pathways for youth participation in climate governance are essential investments in Jordan’s climate resilience, health security, and long-term sustainable development.
