Beyond Progression in Specialization Research
Recent specialization research shows that progression along a unidirectional continuum from novice to expert is more the exception than the rule. We argue that a capital metaphor of changing leisure investments provides a better way to explain multidirectional participation. We propose four mechanisms of leisure capital investments. First, contemporary diversification of leisure opportunities may encourage people to use their leisure capital in m…
Effects of Setting-Based Management on Visitor Experience Outcomes
Opinions diverge as to whether visitor experiences vary across setting-based management continua. Evidence suggests that recreationists with different experiences profiles have distinct setting preferences but is mixed regarding supporting a link between settings and experiences. This paper explores the relationship between settings and experiences at Grand Canyon National Park. Our analyses examine variation in experiences across three managemen…
Experience Use History and Relationship to the Importance of Substitute Stream Attributes
Members of two Trout Unlimited Chapters associated with the Chattooga National Wild and Scenic River (South Carolina, Georgia) completed mail surveys (n = 292, 71% response rate) of experience use history with local substitute streams, number of substitute streams for the Chattooga, and importance ratings for stream and fishing attributes. About 65% of anglers had three or fewer substitute streams; nearly 15% had seven or more that were equivalen…
Place Bonding for Recreation Places
Place bonding is a common phenomenon in many recreation areas, where people develop an affective and cognitive based attachment to special resource settings. Conceptually, place bonding is fairly well understood; empirically it is less so. In this study, a five dimensional orientation to place bonding of trout anglers for a wild and scenic stream was conceptually and empirically developed. The dimensions of place familiarity, belongingness, ident…
Experience Use History, Place Bonding and Resource Substitution of Trout Anglers During Recreation Engagements
Experience use history (EUH) was hypothesized to be linked to recreational place bonding and resource substitution behavior. Trout anglers (n = 203) of two Trout Unlimited chapters were surveyed (response rate = 71%) for EUH, place bonding, and resource substitution. Four classifications (Beginners, Visitors, Locals, and Veterans) of EUH were formed, a 26-item scale was rated to form five dimensions of place bonding (Familiarity, Belongingness, I…
