Autor: | Benyei, Petra CSIC ORCID ; Pardo de Santayana, Manuel CSIC ORCID; Aceituno Mata, Laura; Calvet Mir, Laura; Carrascosa García, María; Rivera-Ferre, Marta G. ; Perdomo Molina, Antonio; Reyes García, Victoria | Fecha de publicación: | 12-ago-2020 | Editor: | Sage Publications | Citación: | Science, Technology, & Human Values (ST&HV) 46(4): 755-788 (2020) | Resumen: | Citizen science (CS) is growing quickly, given its potential to enhance knowledge coproduction by diverse participants, generating large and global data sets. However, uneven participation in CS is still an important concern. This work aims to understand (1) participation dynamics in CS and (2) how they are shaped by participation barriers and drivers. We do so by examining participation in CONECT-e, a CS project that uses a wiki-like platform to document traditional ecological knowledge. More precisely, we analyze quantitative data on participants’ profile and activity patterns and qualitative data on barriers and drivers of participation. Our findings suggest that overcoming the education, age, and residence participation barriers is challenging even in cocreated CS projects. This is potentially due to issues of perceived self-illegitimacy and low access to information and communication technologies. Our results also point out that participants’ alliance with the project’s objectives and trust relationships with the project team are important drivers of participation in CS projects. Finally, we also highlight the need to think beyond participation as single actions and rather consider participation diversity in CS as functional diversity in ecosystems, with participants performing a diverse set of interconnected tasks or functions. | Versión del editor: | https://doi.org/10.1177/0162243920948110 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/279448 | DOI: | 10.1177/0162243920948110 | ISSN: | 0162-2439 | E-ISSN: | 1552-8251 |
