Abstract
Public participation programs, in which citizens and interest groups affected by pending legislation or governmental policies engage in two-way exchanges with decisionmakers, have become important, and sometimes required, institutions in community planning. The input from such programs can clarify conflicts and hasten their resolution. In this article, James K. Van Leuven describes a model which measured the level of satisfaction of participants in the program after the issue debated had become reality. But he suggest that public information specialists learn to use the model, a “personal value inventory”, to predict community reactions during policymaking.
