Abstract

Abstract Some studies question the effectiveness of incentive-based environmental public policies (IEPPS) on inducing changes in farmers’ practices due to certain psychological mechanisms. Rooted in self-determination theory, the extant literature notably focuses on the motivation crowding phenomenon while overlooking the central concept of the basic psychological needs (BPN) of humans: autonomy, competence and social relatedness. This article explores farmers’ BPNs and their fulfillment in the case of farmland arrangements for the protection of natural areas (FAPAs). These IEPPs grant access to land at low rents under conditions of environmentally friendly agricultural practices. We analyze interviews with farmers engaged in FAPAs in a French basin with computer-assisted text-based qualitative data analysis methods. FAPAs create a social context that thwarts farmers’ BPN for autonomy due to a noninclusive design that extends beyond constraints on practices. An inclusive FAPA design and support to BPNs for competence and relatedness could improve farmers’ engagement in action.

自然保护区耕地安排对农户基本心理需求的影响

一些研究质疑基于激励的环境公共政策(IEPPS)在诱导农民行为变化方面的有效性，因为它存在一定的心理机制。基于自我决定理论，现有文献主要关注动机拥挤现象，而忽视了人类基本心理需求(BPN)的核心概念:自主性、能力和社会关联性。本文探讨了自然保护区耕地安排下农民的基本目标及其实现。这些独立投资计划在环境友好型农业做法的条件下以低租金提供土地。我们用计算机辅助的基于文本的定性数据分析方法分析了对法国盆地从事fapa的农民的访谈。fapa创造了一种社会环境，由于其非包容性设计超出了实践约束，阻碍了农民的BPN自治。一个包容性的FAPA设计和对bpn能力和相关性的支持可以提高农民对行动的参与。

期刊介绍： Society and Natural Resources publishes cutting edge social science research that advances understanding of the interaction between society and natural resources.Social science research is extensive and comes from a number of disciplines, including sociology, psychology, political science, communications, planning, education, and anthropology. We welcome research from all of these disciplines and interdisciplinary social science research that transcends the boundaries of any single social science discipline. We define natural resources broadly to include water, air, wildlife, fisheries, forests, natural lands, urban ecosystems, and intensively managed lands. While we welcome all papers that fit within this broad scope, we especially welcome papers in the following four important and broad areas in the field: 1. Protected area management and governance 2. Stakeholder analysis, consultation and engagement; deliberation processes; governance; conflict resolution; social learning; social impact assessment 3. Theoretical frameworks, epistemological issues, and methodological perspectives 4. Multiscalar character of social implications of natural resource management
