A citywide interview of 752 Taipei residents conducted in 1997 provided data on residents' environmental attitudes toward NIMBY facilities. Taipei residents expressed a modest concern toward NIMBY facilities and expressed the concern with the government's ability to deal with the facility siting and renewal information. Factor analysis revealed that there are five sub-scales for NIMBY facility attitudes: psychological, social equity, political decision, motivation, and action. Analysis of the relationships of the various social characteristics to respondents' willingness to accept (WTA) factors was carried out using Pearson bivariate correlation and Partial correlation procedures. Overall, female respondents have higher WTA scores than male and younger respondents have higher WTA scores than older ones. Those individuals having a higher education tend to have lower scores of WT A. Correlation analysis revealed that bivariate relationships could be found between social characteristics and NIMBY facility factors. Gender, education, age, and family income were found to show bivariate relationships with all the five NIMBY facility factors, with the relationship between family income and psychological dropped to non-significance when the effects of the other variables were held constant. Years of residence and number of residents in our study showed no significant relationships with facility renewal factors. |
