Extended Abstract
Introduction and Objective: Oak forests of Zagros including Ilam province have exposed of decline in recent years to various reasons such as rainfall reduction, exposure of dusts and pests and diseases. High speed of decline and lack of government funds for combating it, have necessitated to using from local people participation for restoring these forests. Therefore, present study was implemented in order to the survey of affecting factors on local people (villagers) participation in the restoration of oak forests involved with decline in Ilam province.
Material and Methods: The present research in terms of purpose has been applied research and in terms of research method is descriptive-survey. The statistical population of the study has been including local people in age range of 20-60 years to number 59451 persons and also the sample size has determined 240 persons using the Cochran formula. Due to the large number of located villages in the area of oak forests involved with decline (258 villages) and the impossibility sampling from all of them, the used sampling method has been multi-stage sampling. To analyze the data have used from descriptive statistics techniques (central and dispersion Indicators) and inferential statistics (correlation analysis, regression analysis and one-sample t test). From correlation analysis, regression analysis and one-sample t test have used for determination of the type and intensity of the relationship between each of the independent and dependent variables, the determination effect amount of each independent variables on the dependent variable and the determination of tendency level to participation of local people in the restoration of oak forests involved with decline, respectively.
Results: The results using regression analysis shows that from the perspective of local people, variables of income amount, the dependency amount of economy to forests, amount awareness from forests benefits and amount the sense of ownership relative to oak forests are effective on dependent variable of tendency to participation of local people. Also, the findings indicate that the tendency to participation of local people in the restoration of oak forests involved with decline in Ilam province is less than of average limit.
Conclusion: Based on the research findings, it can be concluded that tendency to participation of local people in the restoration of oak forests involved with decline in Ilam province is function of variables of income amount, the dependency amount of economy to forests, amount awareness from forests benefits and amount the sense of ownership relative to oak forests
