Number of participants (and percentage related to the sample size of N = 847) and age, gender, highest level of education, and status of employment (with percentages related each to the cluster sizes of n = 500, n = 148, n = 152, and n = 47) of the four clusters in the CS project on urban wildlife ecology (Wildlife Researchers). M = mean, SD = standard deviation.
