Abstract
Although a considerable amount of research has been devoted to how people learn in an environment, relatively little has looked at learning about the environment. A factor analysis of the responses of 136 men and women yielded six dimensions of environmental competence. The factors were used to obtain six reliable and valid scales: Conscientious, Outdoor Skills, Wayfinding, Knowledge, Practical Skills, and Resource Conservation. Men and women were significantly different in their responses to three of the scales: men were less competent in Conscientious and more competent in Outdoor Skills and Wayfinding.
