Christensen and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-12 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Values and Choices in Outdoor Recreation by Male and Female Campers in Dispersed Recreation Areas Keywords: Dispersed recreation, recreation surveys, recreation management, human behavior. Men and women using dispersed, roaded recreational areas in the Pacific Northwest were surveyed to determine the similarities and differences (1) in patterns of use, (2) in preferences for settings and for various outdoor activities, (3) in perceptions of manage ment problems, and (4) in attitudes about management activities. Overall, men had a longer history of use in these dispersed areas; men had visited the areas for 8 years before the interview as compared to women, who had visited for 6 years. Childhood experiences with camping were different for men and women; more men than women had participated in dispersed recreation areas as children. Women either did not camp as children or, if they did, they camped in dispersed or minimally developed areas. Women expected to increase their visits to dispersed roaded areas in the next few years; men did not perceive a change in their use. Of the 40 possible activities listed in the survey, 17 were similar for men and women and 23 activities were different. Both men and women preferred certain motorized activities, such as riding in four-wheel drive vehicles and on motorbikes. Women were more likely than men to like day hiking, swimming, nature walks, bicycling, picnicking, playing in the snow, picking berries, and collecting rocks. Men were more likely than women to like snowmobiling, fishing, hunting, target shooting, overnight backpacking, snowshoeing, and cutting firewood for home use.
