Abstract
This study was designed to examine behavioral and perceptual characteristics of the population in regard to responsibility for the environment. Using a sample of extension clubs and study groups from Oregon and Nebraska during the months of January, February and March 1976, hypotheses were tested to determine (1) if there are statistically significant relationships between selected practices in the home and demographic characteristics, (2) if there are statistically significant relationships between selected practices and a measure of social responsibility, (3) if there are statistically significant relationships between selected practices and perceptions of the individual's personal impact on the environment, (4) if there are differences between the Oregon sample and the Nebraska sample in demographic characteristics, social responsibility, perceptions of the individual's impact on the environment and selected practices.
