美国东部主要是私人林地，这是重要的支持全球鸟类种群的显着比例。在这里，我们研究公众对鸟类保护的态度，政府参与私人土地的问题，以及私人森林管理的目标，旨在更好地了解这些看法可能会形成更广泛的鸟类保护的态度。数据收集使用心理测量量表和全州网络调查的一般公众在美国宾夕法尼亚州（n = 656）。研究结果揭示了四个独特的角度对鸟类和重要的相关性与保护支持私人土地。对土地所有者援助计划持积极看法的受访者往往对鸟类有更复杂的态度，并与鸟类的关系和伦理观点有关。我们的结论是，未来的公共教育工作可能会培养学习者更强大的了解鸟类保护，如果他们包括私人林地的价值观和文化在他们的节目。
The eastern United States is dominantd by private forest lands, which are important for supporting a significant proportion of global bird populations. Here, we examine public attitudes towards bird conservation, government involvement in private lands issues, and private forest management objectives with an aim to better understand how these perceptions may shape broader attitudes about bird conservation. Data were collected using psychometric scales and a statewide web survey of the general public in Pennsylvania, USA (n = 656). Findings reveal four unique perspectives about birds and important correlations with conservation support on private lands. Respondents with positive views about landowner assistance programs often had more complex attitudes towards birds and were associated with relational and ethical perspectives about birds. We conclude that future public education efforts might cultivate in learners a more robust understanding of bird conservation if they included private forest lands values and culture in their programs.
