VALUES AND BELIEFS OF IMPORTANCE TO THE ECONOMIES OF WESTERN WISCONSIN Arthur Kneeland

This study assesses the beliefs and values of most importance in western Wisconsin, specifically regarding local economic activities and associated pro-environmental behaviors. VIEW FROM A CANOE: THE IMPACT OF RECREATIONAL BOATING ON LAKE HEALTH Maria Snarski My research is about leveraging a strong sense of place - particularly place dependence and place identity - in encouraging pro-environmental behavior by recreational boaters to minimize harm to lake health from their activities. It centers on determining whether residents and guests who engage in various boating activities in northern Wisconsin believe their boating activities have an adverse effect on the lakes where they engage in these actions. It also intends to determine whether awareness of the harm of these boating activities alone or in combination with a strong sense of place may change their perceptions of the impact of activities on lake health.
