Hi Chad. Since "the rise in negative attitudes" is singular, the corresponding verb should be "indicates" with an "s". And "therefore" does not require an extra "that" behind it.

For a very good discussion on subordinate clause and what makes it (relative pronouns or subordinate conjunctions), please see http://www.chompchomp.com/terms/subordinateclause.htm
