摘要

关于公民科学项目参与者成果的知识有限。以“气候观察:科学家一天”项目为例，我们试图了解参与者在项目后的行为和态度，并评估了项目参与后的举措。对15名前参与者进行了电话采访。虽然参与者喜欢学习和增加他们的环境知识，但很少有人参与项目的持续监测活动。缺乏动力和项目后参与被认为是导致这一结果的关键原因。提供建议以改善参与者的成果，并协助项目评估研究和项目的科学参与目标。

Citizen science engagement: Lessons learned from the ClimateWatch “Scientist for a Day” program

Abstract Limited knowledge exists on participant outcomes relating to citizen science programs. Using the ClimateWatch: Scientist for a Day program as a case study, we sought to understand participant behaviors and attitudes post-program, and evaluated the program’s post-engagement initiatives. Phone interviews were conducted with 15 former participants. While participants enjoyed learning and increasing their environmental knowledge, very few of them engaged in the program’s on-going monitoring activities. Lack of motivation and post-program engagement were cited as key reasons for this outcome. Recommendations are provided to improve participant outcomes, and to assist program evaluation research and the program’s scientific engagement aims.

期刊介绍： Applied Artificial Intelligence addresses concerns in applied research and applications of artificial intelligence (AI). The journal also acts as a medium for exchanging ideas and thoughts about impacts of AI research. Articles highlight advances in uses of AI systems for solving tasks in management, industry, engineering, administration, and education; evaluations of existing AI systems and tools, emphasizing comparative studies and user experiences; and the economic, social, and cultural impacts of AI. Papers on key applications, highlighting methods, time schedules, person-months needed, and other relevant material are welcome.
