Accompanying Data for \"Collaboration and Engagement with Decision-Makers Needed to Reduce Evidence Complacency in Wildlife Management\"

Accompanying Data for \"Collaboration and Engagement with Decision-Makers Needed to Reduce Evidence Complacency in Wildlife Management\". Displayed are each relationship of evidence flow produced in each fuzzy cognitive map from\" 1) The Freshwater Fisheries Society of BC (FFSBC; https://www.gofishbc.com). 2) Natural resource management branches of First Nations Indigenous governments (n=2). 3) Headquarters (i.e., ‘Branch’) of the BC Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development (FLNRORD)*). 4) Regional offices of FLNRORD (i.e., ‘Regions’). *At the time of research this was the Ministry name, but as of March 2022 has changed to ‘the BC Ministry of ‘Lands, Water and Resource Stewardship’. Displayed for each relationship (arc) are the origin and destination of evidence flow along with the following ratings: 1. Amount of information flow 2. Rate of information flow 3. Reliability of the information flow (i.e., signal to noise ratio) which is comprised of a composite index: a. credibility and reliability (i.e., trust, faith, and confidence in the information) b. distortion (i.e., potential misuse or bias of the information) c. hackability (generativity) (i.e., the degree to which the information lends itself to tinkering, modification, exploitation, flexion) d. availability e. political-ness
