The Q-method identifies groups of people with similar or diverging perspectives and is increasingly used for analysing resource conflicts. However, it is uninformative on the prevalence of perspectives in the general population. The Norwegian government considers planting spruce climate forests on abandoned pastures, the habitat for many red listed species. We identify three prevailing stakeholder perspectives in the climate forest debate using the Q method; one pro climate forest and two against with differing motivations. Using the so-called scale creation method (Danielson, 2009) and a national survey, we measure the support of the general population for these perspectives and elicit their concern for ecosystem services. About half of the sample is pro climate forest. Opposition is greater in regions where spruce is uncommon and abandoned pastures are common. The impact of climate forests on biodiversity and landscapes is a concern. Conflicts would be dampened if climate forest policy took impacts on landscape aesthetics and biodiversity better into account. Our proposed generalised Q method combines two strengths: the depth of the Q method with the breadth of the general population survey. The method demonstrates a way forward in ecological economics to better capture representative values and perspectives in ecosystem service management and help design climate and environmental policies with greater acceptance.

在生态经济学中使用广义 Q 方法:在生态系统服务管理中获取代表性价值和观点的更好方法

Q 方法识别具有相似或不同观点的人群,并越来越多地用于分析资源冲突。然而,它对于一般人群中观点的普遍性没有提供信息。挪威政府考虑在废弃的牧场上种植云杉气候森林,这里是许多列入红色名单的物种的栖息地。我们使用 Q 方法确定了气候森林辩论中三个主要利益相关者的观点;一个支持气候森林,两个反对,动机不同。使用所谓的规模创建方法(Danielson,2009 年)和一项全国调查,我们衡量一般人群对这些观点的支持程度,并引起他们对生态系统服务的关注。大约一半的样本是亲气候森林。在云杉不常见和废弃牧场很常见的地区,反对意见更大。气候森林对生物多样性和景观的影响令人担忧。如果气候森林政策更好地考虑到对景观美学和生物多样性的影响,冲突就会得到抑制。我们提出的广义 Q 方法结合了两个优势:Q 方法的深度和一般人口调查的广度。该方法展示了生态经济学的前进方向,以更好地捕捉生态系统服务管理中的代表性价值和观点,并帮助设计更容易接受的气候和环境政策。如果气候森林政策更好地考虑到对景观美学和生物多样性的影响,冲突就会得到抑制。我们提出的广义 Q 方法结合了两个优势:Q 方法的深度和一般人口调查的广度。该方法展示了生态经济学的前进方向,以更好地捕捉生态系统服务管理中的代表性价值和观点,并帮助设计更容易接受的气候和环境政策。如果气候森林政策更好地考虑到对景观美学和生物多样性的影响,冲突就会得到抑制。我们提出的广义 Q 方法结合了两个优势:Q 方法的深度和一般人口调查的广度。该方法展示了生态经济学的前进方向,以更好地捕捉生态系统服务管理中的代表性价值和观点,并帮助设计更容易接受的气候和环境政策。
