SUMMARY:
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
Nature and the outdoors have always
been an important part of the fabric of
American life. But, there are major
questions about the present and future
role of nature and the outdoors in our
increasingly diverse, technologically
oriented, and rapidly changing society.
For our programs to remain relevant to
American life today and tomorrow, we
must be aware of public sentiment
toward the part nature plays in the
quality of our lifestyles.
It is for these reasons that we plan to
use a quantitative survey to collect:
Information on the attitudes that the
public maintains towards the natural
environment; the effects of contact with
nature on participants’ health and
quality of life; the extent of contact with

nature and obstacles to greater contact
with nature; general knowledge of
nature and wildlife; concerns toward
selected environmental issues; and
socio-demographic variables. Results
will help improve the design and
delivery of new or existing programs
aimed at engaging the public in naturerelated activities (e.g., outreach and
educational programming at national
wildlife refuges and national fish
hatcheries).
