Abstract Details

1987, Master of Science, Ohio State University, Natural Resources.
Attitudes, verbal commitment, and actual commitment regarding the environmental concern landscape architects registered and living in either California, Connecticut, Florida, or Washington have as citizens were assessed in this study. A sexually stratified random sample was used that equally divided the participants per state as either ASLA members or nonmembers. Landscape architects held positive attitudes and verbal commitment to environmental concern that were not reflected in actual commitment. A significant positive relationship existed between time devoted to 'pro bono' work and 'civic activites' and actual commitment to environmental concern. While attitude and verbal commitment were similar, ASLA members reported significantly higher actual commitment than nonmembers.
