Abstract
A twenty-one item scale, combining and modifying the “new environmental paradigm” and “dominant social paradigm” scales developed by Dunlap and Van Liere, was used in two surveys in Edmonton and Calgary, Canada. This paper compares attitudinal dimensions resulting from factor analysis. Similarities between the two studies in terms of relationships between scores on the scale and preferences for energy-related options are also assessed.
