요약Mitigating climate change and biodiversity loss hinges on changing human behavior to increase engagement in conservation practices. Financial incentive programs are widely applied to conservation issues to support quick and widespread adoption of conservation practices and offset steep initial costs. Programs that incentivize voluntary adoption of conservation practices can encourage behavior change among landholders who are resistant to regulations and/or provide economic relief to rural communities. Although landowner participation in conservation incentive programs is well studied, there is limited research investigating if and why landowners persist in implementing conservation practices on their land after payments end. Despite billions of dollars invested annually, evidence suggests that financial incentives alone rarely lead to long-term behavior change in conservation practices and may even undermine future engagement in conservation practices.In this dissertation, I first review literature across public health, education, sustainability, and conservation to identify if and when temporary financial incentives promote persistence. To test some of the findings from my review, I used Mexico's flagship conservation program, Sembrando Vida [Sowing Life], and conducted two studies, grounded in self-determination theory (SDT). SDT distinguishes extrinsic and intrinsic motivation, with the latter derived from the fulfillment of three psychological needs-autonomy, competence, and relatedness. I used a mixed-methods approach and surveyed 261 participants who identified as Indigenous and conducted 17 focus groups in Yucatan, Mexico. In the first study, I integrate "nature relatedness" as a potential fourth psychological need to account for how one's connection to nature influences their intrinsic motivation for adopting agroforestry practices and the intensity of the adoption during the payment period. I find that nature relatedness did predict intrinsic motivation. Moreover, participants who reported higher intrinsic motivation planted more trees during the program period. In the second study, I test the moderating effects of habits and social norms on participants' intentions to persist with agroforestry practices once government payments end. Participants who perceived positive social norms related to agroforestry reported stronger intentions to persist. Taken together, the results of my three chapters demonstrate that there are opportunities to integrate psychological insights into the design of financial incentive programs that can increase both intensity of adoption and persistence in conservation practices amongst participants of temporary financial incentive programs.
