野生动物管理者越来越认识到，专注于野生动物的管理往往能暂时解决人与野生动物之间的冲突，而改变人类行为可以提供长期的解决方案。野生动物冲突的人的维度研究往往集中在利益相关者的特征、问题识别和管理的可接受性上，而较少关注人的行为和对改变这种行为的管理行动的评估。因此，几乎没有信息来评估管理的总体成功。我们借鉴了我们研究人与熊冲突的经验，并主张进行更多关注人类行为变化的人性因素研究，以衡量管理成功。我们呼吁社会科学家帮助进行应用实验，利用两种方法--直接观察和自我报告数据--来衡量行为的变化。我们乐观地认为，这些方法将有助于填补管理者的工具箱，并导致更好地将人的因素融入人-野生动物冲突管理。
There is a growing recognition among wildlife managers that focusing management on wildlife often provides a temporary fix to human-wildlife conflicts, whereas changing human behavior can provide long-term solutions. Human dimensions research of wildlife conflicts frequently focuses on stakeholders' characteristics, problem identification, and acceptability of management, and less frequently on human behavior and evaluation of management actions to change that behavior. Consequently, little information exists to assess overall success of management. We draw on our experience studying human-bear conflicts, and argue for more human dimensions studies that focus on change in human behavior to measure management success. We call for help from social scientists to conduct applied experiments utilizing two methods, direct observation and self-reported data, to measure change in behavior. We are optimistic these approaches will help fill the managers' tool box and lead to better integration of human dimensions into human-wildlife conflict management.
