This study examines the impact of risk framing (national security versus climate change) on attitude toward policy, negative affect and individual support for hard policy. A between-subject, vignettebased experiment was conducted. Results show that both climate change and energy security policies receive above-average support and evoke moderate levels of negative affect. In addition, no statistically significant results were found between the two risk framing policies. Moreover, attitude towards policy predicts individual support for hard policy, whereas negative affect has no influence.
