Understanding the gap of tourists’ pro-environmental intention and behavior in nature-based destinations
Despite widespread pro-environmental awareness, tourists’ behaviors often fail to align with their intentions, creating a persistent intention-behavior gap in nature-based tourism. Drawing on social dilemma theory, this study reframes that gap as a weakening of conditional cooperation within shared-resource systems under perceived social loafing. Using a longitudinal field survey (Study 1, N = 263) and an incentive-compatible experiment (Study 2,…

Assessing the Reliability of Beck Depression Inventory Scores
The reliability estimates for the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) scores across studies were accumulated and summarized in a meta-analysis. Only 7.5% of the articles reviewed reported meaningful reliability estimates, indicating that the logic of “test score reliability” generally has not prevailed in clinical psychology regarding application of BDI. Analyses revealed that for BDI, the measurement error due to time sampling as captured by test-re…
Examinee Characteristics and Score Reliability
The literature on measurement reliability shows the general consensus that examinee group heterogeneity with regard to the trait being measured affects the score reliability. Potentially, the performance level of the examinee group may also affect score reliability because of its potential effect on the relative magnitude of error variance. This article empirically examines the effects of these two examinee sample characteristics on score reliabi…
