Biography
Dr. Fulton received graduate degrees from Washington State (MS) and Colorado State (PhD) Universities and worked as a social science researcher and regional planner for the Alaska Department of Fish and Wildlife before joining the Minnesota Unit in 1998. The central focus of his research is on understanding how human held values, attitudes, norms, and perceptions of risk influence how people interact with fish and wildlife and on understanding what factors shape stakeholder preferences for conservation policies as well as individual conservation behaviors. His research draws from basic theory in the social sciences with a particular focus on social psychology, and his projects with graduate students and post docs are focused on providing applied social science information to assist agencies (federal, state, and tribal) in decision making concerning diverse environmental management strategies, policies, and regulations. He conducts qualitative and quantitative social science research, but his focus has been in using quantitative psychometric techniques to model the relationships among constructs that influence human behavior. His research efforts have spanned from the local to the international scale and include aquatic and terrestrial management issues. He teaches a graduate level course in the Human Dimensions of biological conservation as well as occasional graduate seminars addressing theoretical and methodological topics in the conservation social sciences.
