摘要社会科学对荒地-城市交界处的居民和野火之间的关系进行了丰富的描述，但跨不同背景的综合可能会掩盖重要的差异。我们使用在科罗拉多州68个社区一致收集的数据和分层建模来调查这种差异的潜在程度。我们发现，对所有被考虑的措施的反应都有很大的差异，其中大部分发生在社区一级。我们的结果表明，无论是在社区内部还是在社区之间，与野火的关系的许多方面都有意义地不同。我们的分析表明，一些野火社会科学的结果将在不同社区之间相对一致，而另一些则不会，这项研究为更广泛的努力了解谁是谁提供了证据。因此，它为在不同背景下传授野火社会科学研究的经验教训提供了重要指导，并为寻求了解其所在社区内观点广度的从业者提供了重要指导。
Abstract Social science offers rich descriptions of relationships between wildland–urban interface residents and wildfire, but syntheses across different contexts might gloss over important differences. We investigate the potential extent of such differences using data collected consistently in sixty-eight Colorado communities and hierarchical modeling. We find substantial variation across responses for all considered measures, much of which occurs at the community-level. Our results show that many aspects of relationships with wildfire meaningfully differ both within and across communities. Our analysis suggests that some wildfire social science results will be relatively consistent across communities, whereas others will not, and this study contributes evidence to broader efforts for understanding which is which. As such, it provides important guidance for transferring the lessons of wildfire social science studies across contexts, and for practitioners who seek to understand the breadth of viewpoints within the communities with which they work.
