The idea that citizens' support for environmental policies depends on their economic interest and the community that one lives in, has been debated extensively in the environmental attitudes literature. However, this literature has not differentiated between separate policy dimensions that concern measures that affect specific groups in different ways. This paper differentiates between a nature/agriculture dimension that divides those who prioritize the agrarian interest from those who prioritize the protection of nature and a climate/energy dimension that divides those who prioritize industrial interest from those who prioritize fighting climate change, using a new survey in the Netherlands (N = 11,327). This two-dimensional model meets three criteria: scalability, validity, and utility. Scalability is shown by factor analysis and Mokken scaling. Validity is shown by regression analyses that show that whether one lives in a rural or an urban community predicts one's position on the nature/agriculture dimension and that one's financial security predicts one's position on the climate/energy dimension. The utility is shown by regression analyses where the two dimensions are used to predict voting behavior. The Green Party voters favor nature and climate protection, the Liberal Party voters have the opposite views, the Christian-Democrats favor agricultural interests and the Freedom Party favor industrial interests.

荷兰自然/农业和气候/能源方面的环境政策偏好和经济利益

公民对环境政策的支持取决于他们的经济利益和一个人所居住的社区，这一观点已在环境态度文献中进行了广泛的辩论。然而，该文献并未区分不同的政策维度，这些维度涉及以不同方式影响特定群体的措施。本文使用一项新的调查，区分了将农业利益优先与优先保护自然的人分开的自然/农业维度和将工业利益优先与应对气候变化的人分开的气候/能源维度在荷兰（N = 11,327)。这个二维模型满足三个标准：可扩展性、有效性和实用性。可扩展性通过因子分析和 Mokken 缩放显示。回归分析显示了有效性，表明一个人是住在农村还是城市社区可以预测一个人在自然/农业维度上的位置，一个人的财务安全可以预测一个人在气候/能源维度上的位置。该实用程序通过回归分析显示，其中两个维度用于预测投票行为。绿党选民支持自然和气候保护，自由党选民持相反意见，基督教民主党支持农业利益，自由党支持工业利益。
