The natural resource management literature documents many reasons for pursuing collaborative processes, offering useful insights on how to manage conflict and facilitate productive deliberation in complex multi-stakeholder collaborative efforts. We add to the existing literature by explaining how moral foundations theory and self-affirmation theory can further help collaborative efforts mitigate conflicts caused by identity threats and the identity-protective reasoning these threats provoke. Moral foundations theory suggests an approach to increase collaboration by minimizing triggering language and helping people to appreciate opposing viewpoints. Self-affirmation theory suggests a practical intervention that could be used to increase collaboration by desensitizing people to identity threats and reducing defensiveness. Taken together, these theories can contribute substantially to our understanding and practice of collaboration and conflict management for conservation. This article is protected by copyright.

通过自我肯定理论和道德基础理论解决与身份相关的保护合作障碍

自然资源管理文献记录了追求协作过程的许多原因，提供了关于如何在复杂的多利益相关者协作努力中管理冲突和促进富有成效的审议的有用见解。我们通过解释道德基础理论和自我肯定理论如何进一步帮助协作努力减轻由身份威胁和这些威胁引发的身份保护推理引起的冲突来补充现有文献。道德基础理论提出了一种通过最大限度地减少触发语言和帮助人们理解对立观点来增加协作的方法。自我肯定理论提出了一种实用的干预措施，可以通过使人们对身份威胁脱敏并减少防御来增加协作。综合起来，这些理论可以极大地促进我们对保护合作和冲突管理的理解和实践。本文受版权保护。版权所有。
