Paniagua-Zambrana; Rainer W. Bussmann; Robbie Hart; Araceli L. Moya Huanca; Gere Ortiz Soria; Milton Ortiz Vaca; David Ortiz Álvarez; Jorge Soria Morán; María Soria Morán; Saúl ChávezIn this paper we illustrate the complexity of perspectives on knowledge at different ages, and the persistence of knowledge over almost a century. We found that traditional knowledge was only partially affected by the processes of exposure to a market economy, and that different knowledge domains experienced different trends as a result of these changes. Overall knowledge was widely distributed, and we did not observe a directional knowledge loss. We stress the importance to not directly conclude processes of knowledge loss, cultural erosion or acculturation when comparing the knowledge of different age groups.Item type: Item , Who should conduct ethnobotanical studies? Effects of different interviewers in the case of the Chácobo Ethnobotany project, Beni, Bolivia(BioMed Central, 2018) Narel Y. Paniagua-Zambrana; Rainer W. Bussmann; Robbie Hart; Araceli L. Moya-Huanca; Gere Ortiz-Soria; Milton Ortiz-Vaca; David Ortiz-Álvarez; Jorge Soria-Morán; María Soria-Morán; Saúl ChávezDespite this, we did not find this effect to be overwhelming-the amount of knowledge an interviewer reported on the research subject had comparatively little effect on the amount of knowledge that interviewer recorded from others, and even those interviewers who tended to elicit similar answers from participants also elicited a large percentage of novel information.
