Climate change belief systems across political groups in the United States

the structural differences (GDD) both within and between political groups, we carried out pairwise comparisons using Tukey’s Honestly Significant Difference (HSD) test. Results Fig 1 illustrates climate change belief systems for all Americans and further breaks them down by political group. Fig 2 demonstrates the three types of centrality scores for each belief ele- ment. Here, we report mean centrality and its 95% confidence interval based on the bootstrap. Fig 1. Climate change belief system of all, Republicans, Democrats, Independents, and no party. Note. Questions for all variables are shown in Table 1. The color of an edge represents the sign of the partial correlation, with blue indicating a positive partial correlation and red indicating a negative partial correlation. The thickness of an edge represents the strength of the partial correlation. The thicker edge indicates a stronger partial correlation. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0300048.g001 PLOS ONE Climate change belief system PLOS ONE | https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0300048 March 20, 2024 8 / 16
