Abstract

Participatory modeling (PM) is an engaged research methodology for creating analog or computer-based models of complex systems, such as socio–environmental systems. Used across a range of fields, PM centers stakeholder knowledge and participation to create more internally valid models that can inform policy and increase engagement and trust between communities and research teams. The PM process also presents opportunities for knowledge co-production and eliciting cross-sectional and longitudinal data on stakeholders’ worldviews and knowledge, risk assessment, decision-making, and social learning. We present an overview of the stages for PM and how it can be used for community-based, stakeholder-engaged social science research.

参与式模型:社会科学研究中利益相关者知识与参与的方法论

参与式建模（PM）是一种致力于创建复杂系统（如社会环境系统）的模拟或基于计算机的模型的研究方法。PM在一系列领域使用，以利益相关者的知识和参与为中心，创建更有效的内部模型，为政策提供信息，增加社区和研究团队之间的参与和信任。PM过程还提供了知识合作的机会，并获取利益相关者的世界观和知识、风险评估、决策和社会学习的横截面和纵向数据。我们概述了PM的各个阶段，以及如何将其用于社区、利益相关者参与的社会科学研究。

期刊介绍： Field Methods (formerly Cultural Anthropology Methods) is devoted to articles about the methods used by field wzorkers in the social and behavioral sciences and humanities for the collection, management, and analysis data about human thought and/or human behavior in the natural world. Articles should focus on innovations and issues in the methods used, rather than on the reporting of research or theoretical/epistemological questions about research. High-quality articles using qualitative and quantitative methods-- from scientific or interpretative traditions-- dealing with data collection and analysis in applied and scholarly research from writers in the social sciences, humanities, and related professions are all welcome in the pages of the journal.
