Abstract Promoting pro‐conservation behaviours has become a priority for conservation organisations world‐wide. Yet, current engagement strategies still face number of barriers to creating successful interventions at the scale needed meet global sustainability challenges. Online and mobile games enjoy immense world‐wide popularity, tapping into an audience not normally reached through conventional outreach channels. Despite this potential be new, high impact scalable platform promoting pro‐environmental behaviours, opportunities within digital have thus far been little explored called robust evaluations medium. Therefore, we investigated effectiveness augmented reality game Wildeverse, which seeks generate support ape encourage behaviours. We conducted randomised control trial experimentally compare impacts against watching documentary, intervention. compared changes in participants' knowledge, attitudes revealed donation across two groups found that performed as well documentaries supporting positive environmental knowledge attitudes. The results gathered from study provide experimental insight broader use also evidence argument gaming can detract real‐world problems disconnect with these issues. However, could any Wildeverse was achieving its additional aim encouraging players donate conservation, provides existence values–behaviour gap gaming. industry is rapidly growing should no longer ignored avenue outreach. recommend several ways future studies expand on work better understand how effectively harness power drive tangible change benefits biodiversity.

ABSTRACT Shade‐grown coffee farming supports biodiversity and generates additional sustainability outcomes, though the drivers of this approach are poorly understood. Previous research on has focused producers or consumers, potentially overlooking role retailers in commodity supply chains. We conducted semi‐structured interviews with 19 traders, roasters Melbourne, Australia to understand their purchasing decisions, initiatives underlying motivations. Our findings indicate that occupy a critical point chain from which leverage transformations: they can support sustainable approaches at origin, partnership farmers other actors, whilst also undertaking consumer end chain, thereby exerting bidirectional influence Place‐based environmental were especially likely be implemented by large multinational traders independent operating purpose‐driven business models aim deliver positive environmental, social economic outcomes for all stakeholders.

Bu araştırmanın amacı, fen bilgisi öğretmen adaylarının biyolojik çeşitlilik konusundaki farkındalık ve davranış düzeylerini belirlemeye yönelik bir ölçek geliştirmektir. Araştırmacı tarafından ilgili alan taraması yapılarak ölçme aracı için 60 maddelik madde havuzu belirlenmiştir.Alan uzman görüşü alındıktan sonra, sayısı 56 maddeye indirilerek yeniden düzenlenmiştir. Hazırlanan devlet üniversitesindeki 240 öğrenciye uygulanmıştır. Ölçeğin yapı geçerliliği açımlayıcı doğrulayıcı faktör analizi modeli oluşturulmuştur. “Biyolojik Çeşitlilik Farkındalık” Ölçme Aracı” (BÇFÖA), yapılan analiziyle 24 olarak, Davranış (BÇDÖA) ise 25 son halini almıştır. Yapılan analizler, ölçeklerin önceden tanımlanmış yapıya uygun olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Güvenirlik çalışması sonrasında da, BÇFÖA’nın genel cronbach alfa katsayısının .72 olduğu ,BÇDÖA’nın geneli .75 olarak bulunmuştur. Tüm bu çalışmalar ölçmek 6 alt boyutta hazırlanmış maddeden oluşan ölçen 7 5’li likert türü geliştirilmiştir. analizler ölçeğin uyan iyi model uyumu
