Abstract
Guided by social inequality perspectives, this study seeks to advance our understanding of social inequality and outdoor recreation participation by testing if socioeconomic status affects the range and frequency of outdoor recreation participation. Six outdoor recreation activity subfields were analyzed and compared. The result indicated that participation in six outdoor recreation fields was socially structured by educational status and economic status, however, to different degrees. A wider range of outdoor recreation participation was associated with higher educational and economic status. Differences were observed in the frequency of participation in subfields, as some outdoor recreation fields were more selective by educational or economic status whereas others were not socially structured. The results also showed that educational and economic status had mixed effects on different outdoor recreation fields.
