“…In this study, we use open-source and easily accessible Instagram posts to provide insights into the attitudes and behaviors of those who encounter smalltooth sawfish. These posts allowed us to obtain conservation-relevant data without completing formal surveys or focus groups which are relied on traditionally in environmental social science studies (Roberts, 2001;Arterburn et al, 2002;O'Malley et al, 2017;Pate et al, 2021). While these methods are effective and often produce data which can inform environmental policy and management, they can also be time consuming, expensive, and logistically difficult.…”

Monitoring population size and dynamics of threatened or low-density species is often both logistically difficult and costly. Recently, social media has emerged as a new tool for species monitoring. In this study, we expand on the use of social media posts as a tool to monitor the spatial and temporal distribution and public perceptions toward the smalltooth sawfish Pristis pectinata. We recorded 442 encounters with smalltooth sawfish from 2018 to 2021 in the form of Instagram posts. We identified locations of encounters within the

“…Early research on student satisfaction in MPA programs found that students were satisfied and/or would recommend their degree programs to their friends (Light, 1999;Roberts, 2001). However, in a recent study, Bright and Graham (2016) explored the relationship that a range of factors, such as age, gender, minority status, number of years of experience in government and non-profit organizations, and program climate, had with these attitudes.…”

Many scholars have suggested that public service motivation (PSM) is a defining characteristic of public and non-profit employees. However, interest and motivation alone are not the sole determinates of success in any organization. Employees must also possess the knowledge and skills that will help them accomplish the difficult tasks that arise in their chosen occupation. This study explored the relationship that PSM has to student satisfaction in MPA programs, taking into consideration program climate and number of years of government experience. The findings confirmed that while PSM is related to student satisfaction, this relationship was completely mediated by program climate. The implications of the study are discussed, in particular in terms of the contributions that an environment of support and PSM make on the attitudes of students in MPA programs.
