Abstract

This dataset records survey data about public land managers who work in Oregon and Washington (Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, Fish and Wildlife Service, National Park Service, Oregon Department of Forestry, Washington Department of Natural Resources). Data was collected in 2023 via the online survey platform Qualtrics. Data collection is complete. The dataset includes measures of managers beliefs about 1) variable density thinning of mature growth forests, 2) salvage logging of burned areas, 3) translocation of plant species from hotter and drier seed zones to adapt to climate change. It includes how managers evaluate the usefulness of scientific evidence and the soundness of action prescriptions for each of the three management issues Respondents were randomly assigned to either receive long-term or short-term studies, and positive or negative results. The dataset includes measures of sense of belonging (how much managers believe they belong at their workplace) and measures of public support/public threat (how much they believe the public understands and supports the actions they take on the landscape). The dataset includes respondent agency.

Abstract
  • The H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest is a living laboratory that provides unparalleled opportunities for the study of forest and stream ecosystems in the central Cascade Range of Oregon. Since 1980, as a part of the National Science Foundation Long Term Ecological Research (NSF-LTER) program, the Andrews Experimental Forest has become a leader in the analysis of forest and stream ecosystem dynamics.
  • Long-term field experiments and measurement programs have focused on climate dynamics, streamflow, water quality, and vegetation succession. Currently researchers are working to develop concepts and tools needed to predict effects of natural disturbance, land use, and climate change on ecosystem structure, function, and species composition.
  • The Andrews Experimental Forest is administered cooperatively by the USDA Forest Service Pacific Northwest Research Station, Oregon State University and the Willamette National Forest. Funding for the research program comes from the National Science Foundation (NSF), US Forest Service Pacific Northwest Research Station, Oregon State University, and other sources.

Study Area Description
  • Long-Term Ecological Research
    The Andrews Forest is situated in the western Cascade Range of Oregon, and covers the entire 15,800-acre (6400-ha) drainage basin of Lookout Creek. Elevation ranges from 1350 to 5340 feet (410 to 1630 m). Broadly representative of the rugged mountainous landscape of the Pacific Northwest, the Andrews Forest contains excellent examples of the region's conifer forests and associated wildlife and stream ecosystems. These forests are among the tallest and most productive in the world, with tree heights of often greater than 250 ft (75 m). Streams are steep, cold and clean, providing habitat for numerous aquatic organisms.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess how manager values impact perceptions of science. The study examines how confirmation bias affects evidence evaluation and how managers evaluate long-term and short-term scientific studies. It also includes variables to evaluate individual-level differences including sense of belonging, public support, and agency membership.

Methods

Method Steps

Field Methods - SS011
  • We conducted a web-based survey using the Qualtrics survey platform The survey included descriptive measures and a 2x2 experimental design. We measured respondents’ beliefs about salvage logging, thinning, and translocation. Belief questions were measured on a 5-point bi-polar scale (-2 to 2) from Strongly Disagree to Strongly Agree.
  • Next, each respondent was randomly assigned to a condition whereby they received and evaluated results from either a long-term or short-term study. To reduce cognitive load, timeframe varied across respondents but not across management issues within respondents. For each issue, respondents were randomly assigned to either receive positive or negative evidence about the management practice. In the positive condition, the evidence statements suggested the management practice was useful or effective at various goals. In the negative condition, the practice was either ineffective or harmful. For each management issue, respondents rated the usefulness of 3 hypothetical study results for their job. In order to reduce cognitive load, respondents saw only one argument for each management issue, randomly selected from the 3 evidence statements. Respondents rated the soundness of the argument prescribing a management action based on the hypothetical survey results and were asked to explain their answer in an open-ended response. Respondents then answered 5-point bipolar scales about their sense of belonging in the workplace and the extent to which the public supports their unit’s actions. Respondents answered with agency they work for.
Processing Procedures - SS011
  • The data were initially exported from Qualtrics and then cleaned before being uploaded to the repository. Qualtrics-generated variables, including start and end time, how far respondents made it through the survey, how long they spent on the survey, etc. have been removed. Information that could be indirectly identifying (gender, region of work, etc.) have been removed for participant privacy. Respondents who did not pass the initial filter (i.e., respondents who were not managers and therefore not the target of this study and did not see the rest of the survey) have been removed. Respondents who did not answer any questions have been removed. Each respondent has been assigned a 5-digit respondent ID.
Data Entry - SS011
  • Survey data was recorded via Qualtrics, an online survey platform (see survey PDF in related files). After removing data from sensitive questions, the survey questions and responses were transformed into a data table where each attribute represents a question from the questionnaire. The attribute definition references the questionnaire number so that the full context of the question being asked can be accessed. An explanation of survey logic (i.e., random assignment process, block order) is available in the Survey Logic PDF in related files.

Sampling

Study Extent
  • Sampling frequency: single sampling event
Sampling Description
  • The survey features an embedded experimental design. All respondents see the belief, sense of belonging, public support, and agency membership questions. For the scientific evidence statements and action prescription soundness statements, respondents are randomly assigned into one of four conditions: (1) Long-term, negative information, (2) Long-term, positive information, (3) Short-term, negative information, (4) Short-term, positive information.
  • Further, respondents only see one randomly selected soundness argument, randomly selected from the three evidence statements.
  • The research team had emails lists for all employees working for the National Park Service, Bureau of Land Management, Fish and Wildlife Service, Oregon Department of Forestry, and Washington Department of Natural Resources. The research team removed contacts that were not considered “managers” defined as “people who are engaged in planning and implementing management actions on a landscape”. Examples of positions excluded include Human Resources, Information Technology, front office staff, field technicians, and research staff. All remaining contacts (n = 2,273) were invited to participate in the survey. 568 people clicked on the survey (response rate 25%), 461 identified as managers (20% adjusted response rate). After removing respondents who did not answer any questions beyond the filter (e.g., they clicked through the survey but did not answer any questions), the final sample size is 410.
  • For the Forest Service, the survey was distributed by a member of the Forest Service to internal listservs. The exact number of people on the listservs, and how many of them were managers is unknown. It is estimated there were approximately 450 people in the Forest Service listserv. 38 clicked on the survey and 33 identified as managers.
  • Only respondents who identified as managers are included in the dataset. Given the response rate for Department of the Interior and State Agencies, and the non-representative sampling of Forest Service employees, when it comes to descriptive statistics, the database should be interpreted cautiously as a representative sample of PNW public land managers.
