Individual and Joint Situations
In recent years, various metaphysicians have made use of qualifications that may apply to different entities relative to different individuals in accounts of such phenomena as color, secondary qualities, subjectivity, and relations. The primary purpose of this paper is to propose a further use for relative qualifications in an account of situations, where situations here are understood as engaged orientations toward the world. My central claim is…

Response Format Effects in Encounter Norm Questions
Survey response format has been shown to influence norm prevalence (percentage reporting a norm) and the numerical value of the reported norm. This article summarizes an experiment where respondents were randomly assigned to one of two conditions. In the semi-open response format treatment, respondents (n = 817) “wrote in a number” for an acceptable number of visitor encounters. In the closed format treatment, individuals (n = 826) “circled a num…
Extending the Encounter–Norm–Crowding Generalization to Angler Evaluations of Other Social and Resource Indicators
Recreationists who encounter more people than their normative tolerance for seeing others usually feel more crowded than those encountering fewer than their norm. This research note extends this observation–norm–evaluation relationship (e.g., encounter–norm–crowding) to other evaluations and indicators. Data were from a survey of anglers on the Gulkana National Wild River in Alaska (n = 288). Respondents who encountered more people than their nor…

Hunting Specialization and its Relationship to Participation in Response to Chronic Wasting Disease
This article examines the influence of chronic wasting disease (CWD) on displacement and desertion among hunters of varying degrees of specialization. Data were obtained from surveys (n = 9,567) of resident and nonresident deer and elk hunters in eight states. Cluster analyses of hunters' skill, centrality, equipment, and experience revealed four specialization groups (casual, intermediate, focused, veteran). Hunters were shown hypothetical scena…
Ipsative Crystallization Effects on Wildland Fire Attitude—Policy Support Models
Understanding public attitudes toward wildland fire management policies is important for effectively managing natural resources and communicating with the pubic. Ipsative crystallization is a measure of individual attitude consensus. This article examines the utility of ipsative crystallization (IC) measures in better understanding attitudes toward and support for three wildland fire management policies (let the fire burn, contain the fire, and p…
Generalizing the Encounter--Norm--Crowding Relationship
Theory predicts that when encounters exceed a visitor's norm for seeing others, crowding will increase. This article examines this relationship using data from 13 different studies ( n = 10,697) that included both high- and low-density study sites, and 12 different activities. Measures of recreation encounters asked respondents to indicate the number of people they remembered seeing in different contexts. Crowding was measured using a 9-point Lik…
Using Video Surveys to Access Dispersed Backcountry Visitors' Norms
Image Capture Technology (ICT), or the capture and editing of photographic images using microcomputers, has been used in a variety of settings to assess social and ecological impacts. This study illustrates the application of this technology in a VHS videotape survey designed to assess visitors' norms for varying numbers of watercraft, sounds from aircraft and motorized boats, and the acceptability of floating outfitting camps. Acceptability rati…
The price is “about”; right
This paper describes National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) visitors’ evaluations of the entrance fees paid relative to the NWR visited, the characteristics of their visits, the sociodemographic characteristics of visitors, and their beliefs about fees and the fee demonstration program. Data for this investigation were obtained from on‐site surveys distributed at eight NWRs. The study sites were selected to represent the variety of fee changes implemente…
Individual versus aggregate measures of digit preference
Digit preference (DP) has been recognized by a disproportionate number of responses ending in preferred digits (e.g., 0 or 5). Individuals have been defined as exhibiting DP on a particular variable if their responses end in these preferred digits. Since 20% of all numbers end in 0 or 5, however, this individual‐based definition of DP is biased. In this paper, an alternative aggregate measure of digit preference (ADP0or5) is defined and contraste…
Norms, standards, and natural resources
The normative approach in natural resource management illustrates the progress that has been made in advancing theory and application in outdoor recreation research. This article integrates findings from a number of different studies to highlight the utility of the normative approach and provide an example of how efforts focused on a particular theoretical approach can enhance the quality of scientific research. Findings from both social and ecol…
Country of origin, encounter norms, and crowding in a frontcountry setting
Existing normative studies have focused on backcountry encounter norms reported by North Americans. This study compares encounter norms and perceptions of crowding reported by visitors from five different countries of origin—Canada, United States, Japan, Germany, and England—to a frontcountry day‐use recreation area. Data were obtained from random samples of two types of visitors—those riding in “snocoach” tour vehicles (n = 463) and those on the…
Predicting attitudes toward a proposed moose hunt
A growing segment of the American population now questions decisions made by wildlife managers and demands a voice in the decision‐making process. Public acceptance of wildlife management policies is a key consideration in most wildlife decisions. Recognizing this need for human dimensions research, managers have begun to develop and use expertise that allows them to assess the social component of decisions much as they assess the biological cons…
Interpersonal versus social‐values conflict
This study empirically examines the theoretical distinction between interpersonal conflict and conflict in social values. Data for this investigation were obtained from surveys of visitors to Mt. Evans, Colorado. Interpersonal conflicts between hunters and nonhunters on Mt. Evans appear to have been minimized due to the mountain's natural visual barriers and the managing agency's regulations that prohibit hunting near the road where most nonhunte…
Comparing two approaches for identifying recreation activity substitutes
Previous research has utilized at least two distinct methodological approaches to identify substitutable recreation activities: (1) the activity type method, which constructs typologies of substitutable activities based on similarities in reported participation rates or preference patterns and (2) the direct‐question method of asking individuals to specify their substitutes for a particular activity. The present study compares the theoretical ass…
Degree and Range of Recreation Specialization
This paper extends previous specialization research by using the concept to compare individuals who participate in different boating activities and sub-activities. Analyses were based on a statewide random survey of Maryland boaters. The sample was first differentiated into motor and sailboaters. Within each boating activity, three subactivities were identified and the following hierarchy proposed: dayboaters (least specialized activity), overnig…
Recreationist-Defined Versus Researcher-Defined Similarity Judgments in Substitutability Research
Previous research has suggested that similar recreation activities may be substitutable. This paper compares two approaches that have been used to define the notion of similarity. With the first ap
Differences in Reported Satisfaction Ratings by Consumptive and Nonconsumptive Recreationists
This paper theorizes that participants in consumptive and nonconsumptive activities differ in terms of the specificity and clarity of their recreation goals and their control in achieving these goals. Such differences were predicted to influence the recreationists' reported overall satisfaction. Comparisons between consumptive and nonconsumptive recreationists were based on data collected in 12 separate studies across the United States. The 17 ac…
Perceptions of crowding and resource quality by early and more recent visitors
Previous literature suggests that a recreationist's current evaluations of a natural setting are influenced by the conditions that existed during the individual's initial exposure to the environment. Given the rapid growth in backcountry use and the ecological impairments associated with this use, it follows that each new generation of visitors will experience a different set of initial conditions. This paper explores the relationship between the…
