摘要：

The study examines citizens' opinions about one crucial factor: the fire that affects the Brazilian savannah "Cerrado". The paper aims at introducing a new tool that facilitates the assessment of people's behaviour in order to support practitioners and decision makers to develop management strategies that fostering the environmental conservation, economic growth and human wellbeing. The study applies the network analysis in order to analyse the citizens' opinions about causes of fire ignition and suppression activities for firefighting evoked by local inhabitants during the face-to-face interviews. The main finding carried out in this work is the usefulness of a cognitive map for synthesising a variety of people's beliefs. Furthermore, the study reveals the general lack of awareness among people concerning fire use and management and the careless use of fire in rural activities. The chi-square test reveals that natural and physical dimensions affect society's beliefs with statistical significance p <0.001. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
