Abstract
Abstract The hypothesis that length of stay at a visitors' center would inversely correlate at a significant level to density was tested and accepted. Seven days of unobtrusive observations were conducted from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. during a two-week period in July 1983. A significant negative correlation was found between the daily number of users and the average duration of visit. Visitors arriving in a half-hour time slot with fifty-nine or fewer individuals remained 29 percent longer than those arriving with sixty-five or more. Visitors during the daily peak volume time of 11:30 to 2:30 remained about twenty minutes while those at the lowest volume time stayed thirty-one minutes. Managerial implications are discussed.
