Year: 1976
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: Individual attitudes toward law enforcement and perceptions of camper role skills, along with a knowledge of park and campground rules, were measured with a questionnaire and compared through Partial Correlation and Pearson Product-Moment Correlations . Demographic information was also gathered and compared with the attitude and rules knowledge data for significance. Results showed that attitude toward law enforcement and attitude toward camper role skills are significantly related. Attitude toward law enforcement and knowledge of rules also proved to have a significant relationship. However, attitude toward camper role skills had no statistical relationship to rules knowledge. The demographic data was found to be related only to attitude toward law enforcement and then only in two cases: age and education.
