A measure of site attraction / J.H. Ross.: En66-1/2E-PDF
"This paper is concerned with the definition of the attractiveness of recreation sites, as seen by the patrons of the site themselves. It represents a novel approach to the measurement of environmental intangibles, and avoids many of the risky assumptions upon which the more traditional methods of determining site attractivity were based. In turn, it introduces biases peculiar to itself. The methodology presented here is not meant to be regarded as the final answer to the problem, but merely as a step towards a technique which will permit the definition of site attractivity on a more rational basis"--Preface.
