Goals / Objectives
Basic research on central methodological issues in human-environment research. Topics include self-report data limitations, the moderator-mediator concepts, dealing with realistic settings in a more experiential rigorous manner.
Project Methods
Our initial approach will be to critically review and synthesize appropriate literatures in methodologies issues in human-environment research.
