    <p><b>Attributes can have direct and indirect effects on the response variable.</b> An example of these relationships is included within parentheses in each attribute box. This conceptual framework is further developed for timber and Amazon nut income in the Supporting Information. Other variables used to characterize the different attributes are listed in <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0170594#pone.0170594.t002" target="_blank">Table 2</a>.</p

    <p>Solid arrows indicate significant effects of a variable on another, whereas, dotted arrows indicate non-significant effects. Standardized coefficient values are at the intersection of the arrows indicating the direction of the relationships. Values are only provided for significant relationships that resulted from the structural equation (SEM) models.</p

    <p>Values correspond to the weights of the Akaike Information Criteria (AIC) of all possible models in which each variable appears. Significance levels: p <0.01***, p <0.05**, p <0.1*, p >0.1^ (most important variable in the absence of a significant predictor per attribute). At least one variable was selected per attribute for each income source.</p

    <p>The upper and lower quartiles in the boxplots explain 25% of the variation in the median net income derived by participating households. Empty circles are the outliers. CTMP = Community timber management plan, NTFPs = Non-timber forest products.</p
