“…In the Ant Forest model, the behavior patterns of OGUs can be described through four dimensions: social motivation ( Mckenna and Bargh, 2000 ; Bargh and Mckenna, 2004 ; Engelberg and Sjoberg, 2004 ; Simpson and Willer, 2015 ), environmental awareness ( Fehr and Gintis, 2007 ; Boyd and Richerson, 2009 ), online immersion ( Bierhoff and Vornefeld, 2004 ), and global cooperation intention ( Lazarus, 2008 ; Ejelov et al, 2018 ). In addition, demographic characteristics are considered ( Van Vugt et al, 2007 ; Charness and Rustichini, 2011 ; Masod and Chin, 2014 ; Branasgarza et al, 2018 ; Parrish et al, 2019 ; Cigarini et al, 2020 ).…”

Environmental protection activities based on digital technology have cultivated many online green users (OGUs) and may become a critical means to combat global climate change. This paper explores individuals' motivation to participate in online environmental protection activities and whether the activities have significantly increased individuals' intention to participate in global collaboration on climate change. Taking Ant Forest as an example, this paper first summarized 14 trigger reasons for users' participation in online environmental protection activities through interviews, then surveyed 600 OGUs through questionnaires, and studied the behavioral motivation from the four dimensions of environmental awareness, social motivation, online immersion, and global cooperation intention by using a structural equation model. The study found that both environmental awareness and social motivation had significant positive promotional effects on OGUs' online immersion, and environmental awareness was higher than social motivation. Environmental awareness as a long-term motivation is conducive to the achievement of long-term climate goals, and social motivation is focused on short-term entertainment functions. There is a significant positive interactive relationship between environmental awareness and social motivation under the effect of digital technology, which jointly promote the improvement of OGUs' online immersion, and online immersion is conducive to enhancing OGUs' global cooperation intention. This study demonstrated that digital technology can effectively improve individuals' intention to protect the environment and found a means to quickly identify the best OGUs (most willing to participate in global cooperation), which provided a new opportunity to inspire greater public participation in the global action against climate change.

“…Through the lens of such experiments, we can acquire a better understanding of citizen social science practices (Sagarra et al 2016). In particular, attention has focused on the specificities of expanding participation in the field of human behavioural sciences (Cigarini et al 2020). Public and collective experiments, first, have to capture the interests of non-professional scientists (Latour 1983); second, they have to collect information on 'real-world' problems in the form of in-the-field or in-the-wild research (Gneezy and Imas 2017); and, third, they have to extend the laboratory to wider society by carefully relaying results back into the field in a fast and efficient manner.…”

This chapter explores the ways in which the roles of citizens and researchers play out in the social sciences. This is expressed by numerous overlapping and related terms, such as co-production and participatory action research, to name but two, and by the different social topics that citizen social science draws attention to. The key question this chapter seeks to explore is what does naming citizen social science as such bring to the fields of citizen science and the social sciences? The chapter explores the different epistemic foundations of citizen social science and outlines the development and provenance of citizen social science in its broadest sense, reflecting on how it is currently practised. It draws on different examples from the experiences and work of the authors and notes the boundaries and overlaps with citizen science. The chapter also highlights some of the key issues that citizen social science gives rise to, emphasising that while citizen social science is a relatively new term, its underlying approaches and epistemic foundations are at least partially established in the social sciences.

“…Citizen social science is intended to facilitate participants' contribution to research. Their unique expertise comes from everyday experiences, including of their neighbourhoods, health (Cigarini et al 2018), gender discrimination (Cigarini et al 2020), and climate action (Vicens et al 2018). Following a horizontal approach and a distributed expertise model (Nowotny 2003), participants can be considered competent in-the-field experts and therefore able to produce socially robust knowledge.…”

Citizen science practices have different frames to general scientific research – the adoption of participatory methods in research design has long been pursued in citizen science projects. The citizen science research design process should be inclusive, flexible, and adaptive in all its stages, from research question formulation to evidence-based collective results. Some citizen science initiatives adopt strategies that include co-creation techniques and methodologies from a wide variety of disciplines and practices. In this sense, the will to collaborate between researchers and other stakeholders is not new. It is traditionally found in public participation in science, including participatory action research (PAR) and the involvement of civil society organisations (CSOs) in research, as well as in mediatory structures, such as science shops. This chapter critically reviews methodologies, techniques, skills, and participation based on experiences of civic involvement and co-creation in research and discusses their limitations and potential improvements. Our focus is on the reflexivity approach and infrastructure needed to design citizen science projects, as well as associated key roles. Existing tools that can be used to enhance and improve citizen participation at each stage of the research process will also be explored. We conclude with a series of reflections on participatory practices.
