Question 5 "The environment is important to me, and I do my best to take care of it."

sounds good to me JuliaMalmo-Laycock 22:09, 16 February 2012 (PST)

My latest thought is to combine Question 5 (attitudes to personal responsibility for the environment) and Question 6 (attitudes to government responsibility for the environment) to get an overall measurement of desire to protect the environment. Since we only get 5 questions, it may be helpful to combine the ones which overlap, unless that gets confusing with 2 messages. Or, we can simply axe the weaker ones of similar groups, if that seems better.

I will propose it here, and put it on the main course page. Of course, others can comment or edit, or separate back into different questions, as desired:

Question 5 (now a combination of former Questions 5 and 6)

State how strongly you agree or disagree with the following statement:

As an individual, I do my best to take care of the environment. All levels of government should also protect the environment, for the benefit of society as a whole, the economy and future generations.

1. Strongly agree 2. Agree 3. Disagree 4. Strongly Disagree 5. Don't know
