“…Much of this research has involved "measuring the extent to which an individual values or identifies with a particular environmental setting" (Kyle et al 2003, p. 250) to identify correlations among visitors' attachment to outdoor recreation sites, attitudes, and recreation behaviors. For example, researchers have explored the connection between place attachment and the following: experience use history (EUH) and resource substitution (Eder and Arnberger 2012;Hammitt et al 2004); activity type and involvement (Moore and Scott 2003); recreation motivations and support for management actions (Warzecha and Lime 2001); visitor conflict (Williams et al 1992a); crowding and setting density ; sensitivity to resource conditions and pro-environmental behavior (Larson et al 2018;Wynveen et al 2013;Ramkissoon and Mavondo 2017); and attitudes toward fees (Kyle et al 2003).…”

The importance of place in landscape management and outdoor recreation has been prominent in the literature since the 1970s. As such, calls to incorporate place into the management of parks, forests, and other protected areas exist. However, little work explores how place attachment may complement existing management frameworks. Hence, the purpose of this investigation was to explore levels of visitors' place attachment intensity across the six classes of the Recreation Opportunity Spectrum (ROS). Survey data collected in North America and Europe indicated there was more similarity in place attachment intensities among areas classified toward the less developed end of the ROS, while greater variation existed among the more developed sites. Observing place attachment across all six ROS classes allowed for a deeper understanding of the correlation between place and the management framework.

“…In our review, EA are seen as a “collection of beliefs, affect, and behavioral intentions a person holds regarding environmentally related activities or issues" (Schultz et al, 2005, 458). This definition is quite broad and, as such, we consider in our review studies evaluating people’s ecological beliefs (Van Liere and Noe, 1981), connectedness to nature (Mayer and Frantz, 2004), place attachment (Hou et al, 2005), biophilia (Zhang et al, 2014), and willingness to engage on EB (Larson et al, 2018b).…”

Experiences in Nature and Environmental Attitudes and Behaviors: Setting the Ground for Future Research

2019

There is empirical evidence suggesting a positive link between direct experiences in nature and people’s environmental attitudes (EA) and behaviors (EB). This has led researchers to encourage more frequent contact with nature, especially during childhood, as a way of increasing pro-environmentalism (i.e., pro-EA and pro-EB). However, the association between experiences in nature and EA/EB is complex, and specific guidelines for people’s everyday contact with nature cannot be provided. This article offers an overview of the research conducted until know about the relation between experiences in nature and pro-environmentalism, and opens up new inquiries for future research. We begin with an introduction to people’s current tendency toward an alienation from the natural world and set out the objectives of the article. It is followed by three main sections. The first one reports on what experiences in nature refer to, how and where they occur. The second section describes the different approaches used to investigate and interpret the experiences in nature-EA and EB relation. The last section provides suggestions for future research. We close by making some final remarks about the importance of (re)stablishing a greater interaction with nature for people’s pro-EA and EB.

“…Regarding the sustainability of tourism destinations, scholars have fiercely debated the factors that influence tourists' ERBs. In the tourism context, environmental attitude has been extensively assessed (Lee & Jan, ; Whitburn, Linklater, & Milfont, ), and recreation experience (Lee & Jan, , ; Lee, Jan, & Huang, ; Lee, Jan, Tseng, & Lin, ), biosphere value (Lee & Jan, ), and place attachment (Larson, Usher, & Chapmon, ; Lee, ) have also been addressed. On the other hand, for management and marketing purposes, some destination managers attempt to identify market segments and develop marketing strategies for sustainable development (Moeller, Dolnicar, & Leisch, ).…”

This study attempts to identify the profiles of community-based tourists based on their environmentally responsible behaviors (ERBs) and discusses marketing and managerial strategies for sustainable community-based tourism (CBT). The findings reveal that tourists can be categorized into four segments based on their ERBs: low-ERB tourists, high-ERB tourists, civil action and sustainable tourists, and multi-ERB tourists. The implications of this paper can be helpful for elucidating tourists' implementation of ERBs and providing different managerial strategies for CBT. The study's findings contribute to the literature by shedding light on previously proposed but unexamined differences in tourists' ERBs in different stages of CBT.
