  • Bioecological representations and social characteristics of students influence their attitudes toward wild vertebrates

    Open Access•Amanda Rozendo Da Silva, Franciany Braga-Pereira et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Ethnobiology and…•2023•Cited by: 1•References: 90

    BackgroundThe origin of different human emotions directed towards animals (whether in the utilitarian, affective, conflictual, or cosmological context) is strongly influenced by sociocultural factors, although our genetic predispositions also play an important role in the origin of these emotions. Such emotions guide people's representations of different species, which in turn affect their attitudes toward them. For this reason, understanding the…

  • What are the factors influencing the aversion of students towards reptiles

    Open Access•Moacyr Xavier Gomes Da Silva, Franciany Braga-Pereira et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Ethnobiology and…•2021•Cited by: 4•References: 42

    BackgroundReptiles form a paraphyletic group with significant roles for human society, including species that are considered important for food, medicinal and mystical use and as pets. Some species are considered to be aversive, whereas others are captivating among people. Aversion is an important factor which should be considered in the conservation policies of these animals. As such, here, we investigate the demographic, educational, perceptive…

  • Fauna and conservation in the context of formal education

    Open Access•José Valberto De Oliveira, Moacyr Xavier Gomes Da Silva et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Ethnobiology and…•2020•Cited by: 2•References: 19

    Background In addition to playing a key role in the dynamics of ecosystems, animal diversity, especially that of wild vertebrates, is intimately linked with human evolutionary history, which has resulted in diverse interactions that must be emphasized in formal education processes. We analyzed several methods of approaches used for biological education in order to teach about wild vertebrates and their conservation in urban and rural schools in t…
