Ecosystem-based psychology, or, how I learned to stop worrying and love the data

摘要

The emerging fisheries science paradigm may be drifting in what some applied fisheries scientists consider an intractable assignment - Ecosystem-Based Fisheries Management (EBFM) or the Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries (EAF). In this paper I suggest that the lack of progress in implementing EBFM-EAF is partly psychological and that the multidisciplinary approach to it should include psychology, a discipline that has largely ignored the overwhelming problems of fisheries management.
