Introduction to the 1996 National Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and WildUfe-Associated Recreation Introduction This lesson introduces you to the 1996 National Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and Wildlife-Associated Recreation. We will refer to it as Fish-Hunt. Objectives At the end of this lesson, you will be able to: ► State the primary purpose of Fish-Hunt/CAPl Survey; ► Be familiar with the Fish-Hunt sample; ► Be familiar with the Fish-Hunt interview operations for 1996; ► Be familiar with the three intei'view waves for Fish-Hunt; ► State the sponsorship and the authority under which the Census Bureau will conduct the survey; ► State how organizations use Fish-Hunt data. 1-1 Lesson 1. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Purpose of the survey The purpose of the Fish-Hunt Survey is to gather information on the number of anglers (fishermen), hunters, and nonconsumptive participants (people who observe, photograph or feed wildlife) in our counti7, as well as how often they participate and how much they spend on these activities. Sponsorship and authority The U.S. Department of Commerce's (DOC) Bureau of the Census will conduct the 1996 Fish-Hunt Survey for the U.S. Department of Interior's Fish and WildUfe Service (FWS). FWS is charged with the overall Federal responsibility for managing the Nation's fish and wildlife resources and for providing technical and financial assistance to the States for carrying out their fish and wildlife programs. Its mission is: To assure the conservation, protection, and enhancement of fish and wildlife for the continuing benefit of the American people This survey is conducted about every five yeai^s; 1991 was the last time it was conducted. The Census Bureau is authorized to collect data by Title 13, United States Code. Participation in the survey is voluntary and there are no penalties for not participating. 1-2 Form FH/CAPl-lOB (5/96) Lesson 1. Cooperation Do people cooperate? Yes, overwhelmingly! In the most recent Fish-Hunt Survey, the response rate was an impressive 95%!! You can see that the average person views this type of survey as a very important and enjoyable project! However, before actually participating, some people will ask various questions about the survey, such as "Why me?" and "Why is this being done?" This self-study will provide you with guidance to answer these types of questions confidently. Assurance of confidentiality Title 13, U.S. Code, Section 9 guarantees the confidentiality of the data the respondent provides and assures that all information collected is used for statistical purposes only. We are convinced that one reason for the high level of cooperation is that people believe that their answers will be kept secret or confidential. However, you are probably the most important reason many people agree to participate. They do so primaiily because of your professionalism and skill, plus the simple fact that they trust you. You can tell people with confidence that census data are kept confidential. Your oath Moreover, before you started working as a field representative, you were asked to take an oath in which you pledged to keep the information you collect confidential. If you violate this oath, the penalties include possible fines and/or a jail sentence. 1-3 Lesson 1. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) What are the steps of your job? The general steps of your job include the following: 1. Be given a list of addresses to interview. 2. Call (or visit if necessary) households where you will: a. Show your identification (if personal visit), b. introduce yourself, c. verify that you contacted/are at the correct unit, and d. check to see if the person received the Advance Letter. 3. Obtain a list or roster of the household members, including basic information, such as age, sex, race, ethnic origin, marital status, and education. 4. Conduct a Fish-Hunt/CAPI interview. 5. Transmit your work to headquarters in Washington on a daily basis. 6. Complete your payroll and send it to the regional office every two weeks. Where will the Fish-Hunt sample come from? Approximately 80,000 sample addresses will make up the Fish-Hunt sample for the 1996 survey. The majority of these sample addresses ai*e not new to Census surveys. These households were contacted first for the Current Population Survey (CPS) during the period of January 1988 through March 1990 and then again for the 1991 Fish-Hunt Survey. 1-4 Form FH/CAPI-lOB {5/96) Lesson 1. Where will the Fish-Hunt sample come from?, Continued In addition to these sample addresses, approximately 8,000 new sample addresses were sampled from units that have been constructed since 1990 to make up the 80,000 address sample base. Finally, we added in this sample base approximately 88 sample addresses located in coastal counties from South Carolina to get a better picture of sportsmen from these areas. CATI and CAPI Fish-Hunt operations This year the Fish-Hunt survey will be conducted in two operations. The first operation is called Computer Assisted Telephone Interviewing (CATI) and will be conducted by Census interviewers from the three Census telephone centers (Hagerstown, Jeffersonville, and Tucson). They will attempt to telephone and interview aU sample addresses starting in April 1996 for a period of six weeks. The interviewers during the Fish-Hunt CATI operation may not be able to contact some sample households because of the following reasons: ► There was no answer after several attempts; ► They could not locate a working telephone number; or ► The sample household did not wish to participate. These types of cases, which we call recycled cases, will be sent to the regional offices for further investigation about two weeks after the completion of CATI. This begins the second operation, which we call CAPI. We anticipate about 25% of the CATI workload will be recycled to CAPI. The regional office will review these cases before assigning them to you. 1-5 Lesson 1. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) CATI and CAPI Fish-Hunt operations, Continued You will attempt to gain an interview through CAPI, preferably by telephone. Suggested resources for locating telephone numbers The following is a list of some suggested resources for locating telephone numbers. ► Neighbors and relatives ► Post Office and mail carriers ► Criss Cross and Reverse directories ► Telephone directories ► Directory Assistance ► Housing/Apartment managers ► Police and Fire Departments ► Chamber of Commerce ► Social Service Organizations ► Voter registration ► Real Estate Companies ► Local Title Company ► Local Social Security office ► Utility Companies ► Tax Assessor's office 1-6 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 1. Suggested resources for Some of these sources may be appropriate for your area locating telephone numbers, and some may not, so use your judgement on how you Continued wish to use them for each sample case. Of course we know that you will use your creativity and knowledge of your local area in conjunction with these sources. If you cannot obtain a telephone number for a sample address, or if you are not able to contact the household by phone after repeated attempts, only then should you contact the household by personal visit. Some telephone guidelines The following is a list of telephone guidelines to help you when trying to contact the sample household by phone: ► Attempt all cases by phone first. ► If no phone number is available, try to locate one before making a personal visit. ► If a phone number is available, try to make contact by phone at least 5 times before resorting to a personal visit interview. These 5 telephone tries should be at different times and on different days. You should try at least once on the weekend. ► Use your best judgement. For example, if you call and get a busy signal, try again in 15 minutes or after you complete another interview. You don't need to wait until another time period on another day to try since there is a good chance the respondent is home because of the busy signal. ► If you get a busy signal during a certain time period on one day and can't get back to the person on that day, try calling during the same time period on another day since you have reason to believe this is a good time to catch the respondent home. 1-7 Lesson 1. Form FH/CAPI-lOB {5/96) Some telephone guidelines, Continued Although you are to make at least 5 attempts by telephone, use your judgement and try as many times as you feel is productive before making a personal visit to complete the interview. It is very important for you to maximize the number of interviews conducted by telephone. The interview The 1996 Fish-Hunt interview will consist of two phases. The first phase will consist of interviewing sample addresses nationwide to determine who participated in wildlife-associated recreation so far in 1996, and those who may engage in those activities during the remainder of 1996. In most cases, one adult household member will be able to provide information for all household members. This is known as the "screening" phase of the interview. The second phase of the interview will consist of two detailed interviews. The detailed interviews will be conducted with fishers, hunters, and wildlife-associated recreation participants identified in the initial screening phase. Each respondent will be asked to provide information only about his/her activities and expenditures. Interviews will cover 3 waves The Fish-Hunt Survey will cover 3 waves. Wave 1 will take place from April 1, 1996 through July 5, 1996, first on CATI and then on CAPl. CAPl will begin around May 24, 1996. Those household members who have already hunted and/or fished in 1996 will be included in the hunting/fishing sample for Wave 1. A subsample of those household members who have participated in nonconsumptive activities in 1996 will be included in the nonconsumptive sample for Wave 1. 1-8 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 1. Interviews will cover 3 waves, Continued Wave 2 will take place from September 1, 1996 through October 15, 1996. This wave will be conducted by CATI ONLY. You will not conduct CAPl interviews for Wave 2. Some household members who were not interviewed in Wave 1 will be included in Wave 2. Wave 3 will take place from January 2, 1997 to February 28, 1997. The interview will be covered by both the CATI and CAPI operations. Those persons who were in Waves 1 and 2 will be included in Wave 3 for CATI and CAPI. What type of data are collected? As a field representative, you will collect important data that will be summarized into the following major statistical categories: The number and demographic characteristics (such as age, race, and sex) of persons who participate in fishing, hunting, or other wildlife-related activities. (Note: Demographic characteristics will be obtained during the screening phase.)', The types of wildlife-related activities they participate in; The number of trips and days they spend on these activities; The states where they participate in these activities; and The amount of money they spend on these activities. Publishing of Fish-Hunt data The Department of Interior's Fish and Wildlife Service will publish fishing, hunting, and other wildlife-related recreation data in a national report in October of 1997. The State reports will follow. 1-9 Lesson 1. Form FH/CAPI-JOB (5/96) Users of Fish-Hunt data The data are used by Federal, State, and nongovernmental agencies. Planners use the data to study current recreational uses of existing fish and wildlife resources and also to plan where new opportunities will be provided in the future. The data are used to answer questions such as: ► Are there enough hunting and fishing sites to meet the demands of the population? ► Are there too many? Information collected by the survey will be used to plan programs that will provide better facilities and more opportunities for enjoying these activities. Hunting, fishing, and other wildlife-related recreational activities are a major pastime for millions of Americans. To ensure that these activities remain available as a source of enjoyment, we need information. This survey provides that information. The Fish and Wildlife Service needs the data to prepai-e resource management and development plans and environmental documents required for compliance with Congressional legislation. This includes the following responsibilities: ► Preparing reports assessing the environmental impacts of developments and activities on wildlife and fish resources and values, as required by the National Environment Policy Act (NEPA); 1-10 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 1. Users of Fish-Hunt data, Continued Calculating the economic values of fish and wildlife recreation resources. This information serves as a basis for assessing damages from adverse occurrences such as oil spills and hazardous waste dumps in compliance with the Oil Pollution Act and the Comprehensive Environment Response and Liability Act (CERCLA). Many damage assessment cases have been settled using the survey data. To date, excluding the Exxon Valdez case, over $150 million dollars in settlements have been gained for use in restoring wildlife and their habitat. The Exxon Valdez case was a billion dollar settlement. ► Conducting studies and evaluations on the status and trends in recreational activities of hunting, fishing, and other wildlife-associated activities, as well as the values and benefits of fish and wildlife resources; and ► Identifying and analyzing the extent and value of the Great Lakes resources for recreation. The Great Lakes Fisheries Commission will use the data to assess the effectiveness of its programs for enhancing and protecting the lakes' fisheries. Data are not available elsewhere for these analyses. Other Federal agencies will use Fish-Hunt data to prepare and evaluate resource development and management plans and complete environmental analyses required by law. They include: ► Bureau of Land Management; ► Forest Service; ► Bureau of Reclamation; ► Corps of Engineers; Ml Lesson 1. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Users of Fish-Hunt data, ► Economic Research Service; and Continued ► National Park Service. Other primary users of the data are State fish and wildlife agencies. Their planning divisions in conjunction with their fishery and wildlife sections use the data for program management and planning. Other state users include park and recreation departments, State planning and budget offices, tourism councils, and forestry divisions. Review!

Getting Respondents to Participate Objective This lesson gives you an ovei'view of the Advance and Introductory Letters, the reference aid, your introduction to respondents, and some questions respondents may ask. FH-Ll, Introductory letter Look among your materials Form FH-Ll, Introductoiy Letter. D In December, we mailed to each sample household the FH-Ll, Introductory Letter with the FH-1 Pamphlet, to inform respondents that we will be calling them in a few months and that we are interested in fishing, hunting, and wildlife-associated activities beginning on Januai'y 1, 1996. Take a moment to read the Introductory Letter now. n FH-Ll.A, Advance Letter Now look among your materials for the FH-Ll.A, Advance Letter. D All households selected to participate in Fish-Hunt were sent the FH-Ll.A, Advance Letter in Mai-ch 1996. The letter introduces the survey and explains its voluntary nature while stressing the importance of participation by the various households that have been chosen. It also states that we will hold any furnished information in strict confidence. All households should have received a copy of the letter. If you find out during your inti^oduction that the household did not receive a copy, your CAPl instmment will tell you what to say to inform the respondent as to what information is in the letter. Answer any questions that arise. Please read the Advance letter now. D 3-1 Lesson 3. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) FH-C.l, Reference Aid Now look among your materials for the FH-C.l, "Reference Aid." D This reference aid was sent to the sample households, along with the Advance Letter mailed in March. When asking respondents certain interview questions that contain several options or choices, you will refer them to this aid so that they give the best possible answer(s). Take a few minutes to look over the "Reference Aid" now. n FH-1 Pamphlet; Restoring Sport Fisheries ; and Restoring America's Wildlife Your introduction Now look among your materials for the FH-1 Pamphlet and the pamphlets titled Restoring America's Sport Fisheries and Restoring America's Wildlife . D These pamphlets are provided as a tool for you to use at your discretion, when trying to covert difficult sample persons. Take a few minutes to read over these pamphlets now. D Now let's discuss a proper introduction to the Fish-Hunt Survey you should use when contacting respondents. A proper introduction should contain the following information: ► Your name (and show ED for personal visit interviews); ► The fact that you represent the Census Bureau; ► Your reason for contacting them; and ► An inquiry as to whether or not the respondent received the Advance letter. It is important that you do not give the respondent any information about the survey until you have verified that you are at the correct address. 3-2 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 3. Concerns of respondents For any survey, there are always some respondents who are reluctant to be interviewed. However, with a good approach and a thorough introduction, you can reduce the number who refuse. You need to be mentally prepared to obtain cooperation from a reluctant respondent. Successfully handling reluctant respondents depends upon your resourcefulness and knowledge of the survey. Just as one respondent differs from another, the reasons for refusals will vary. Checklist for dealing with refusals The following page contains a checklist for dealing with refusals. Please read it now. Checklist for Refusals follows. f-fL^' 3-3 Lesson 3. Form FH/CAPI-IQB (5/96) CHECKLIST FOR REFUSALS Maintain a polite yet firm attitude when faced with refusals. Remain neutral wlien respondents criticize the survey and/or government in general. Wlien making a personal visit, show your ID immediately to the respondent to avoid reluctance based on suspicion of the survey or your own credentials. During personal visits, provide the Advance letter to any respondent who has either lost or never received it. This avoids reluctance on tfie part of tlie respondent who questions the legitimacy of the survey. Practice the disclosure statement so it comes easily to mind when someone questions whether information is kept private. VMn\\\2inz& yourself with the survey and its content so you can discuss it and possibly "turn around" a respondent who questions the neces^it> for liis/her cooperation. Direct your discussion to the particular respondent or complaint and don't cite all the survey data uses in any one situation. Maintain a friendly and professional attitude and answer all questions without injecting your personal opinion. Your business-like and informed attitude can influence a respondent who is critical of any and all surveys. Be flexible and resourceful in your response to all reluctance and criticism. In this way, you can handle questions from different age or socio-economic groups, etc. Treat every reluctant respondent as a challenge and try to find ways to address each complaint or worry with neutral, non-Coercive responses. Use the best sources of information available to you - your Interviewing Reference Manual, experienced field representatives, and your supervisor's expertise - to find ways to deal with reluctance. Don't give up until you know you have exhausted all your tactics and resources. 3-4 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 3. Suggested answers to frequently asked questions about Fish-Hunt The following tables contain suggested answers to frequently asked questions about Fish-Hunt. Take a few minutes to read over these questions and answers now. The tables continue through page 3-6. Suggested Answers to Frequently Asked Questions About the Fish-Hunt Survey GENERAL QUESTIONS SUGGESTED RESPONSES 1. What is this survey all about? The Fish and Wildhfe Service is charged with the overall Federal responsibility for managing the Nation's fish and wildlife resources. Its mission is to assure the conservation, protection, and enhancement of fish and wildlife for the continuing benefit of the American people. To assist in carrying out its responsibilities, the Fish and Wildlife Service has sponsored national surveys of fishing and hunting at about five-year intervals since 1955. The survey is authorized by the Fish and Wildlife Act of 1956 and the Federal Aid in Fish and Wildlife Restoration Acts. 2. How will the information be used? In addition to the Fish and Wildlife Service, state. Federal, and local agencies use the survey results to provide essential information on present recreation demand and to project future demand both nationally and on a state-by-state basis. These sui'vey results ai'e needed to determine trends in fish and wildlife-related recreation in order to provide the basis for formulating policies and developing programs to meet needs and resolve issues and problems. 3-5 Lesson 3. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) GENERAL QUESTIONS SUGGESTED RESPONSES 3. How will this survey benefit me? The information you provide will help identify trends in fishing, hunting, and wildlife observation. Policymakers and data users will use this information to address your recreational needs and to plan resource, education, and recreation programs to meet your community's needs. 4. Why can't you select someone else? Your answers are very important to this study because your household was selected to represent many other households in the country. We cannot substitute another address for your household because it would harm the quality of the sample data we collect. The success of the survey depends on your participation in this voluntary survey. 5. What confidential protection do I have? All the information you give to the Census Bureau for this survey is confidential by law (Section 9 of Title 13, United States Code). Every Census Bureau employee takes an oath and is subject to a jail penalty, a fine, or both if he or she discloses any information that would identify an individual. We will release information only for statistical purposes and will never release identifiable information. 3-6 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 3. Summary The way in which you present yourself will often determine how successful you are in obtaining respondent cooperation. Properly identify yourself upon contacting the respondent. If the respondent questions the confidentiality of the survey, tell the respondent that the Census Bureau has a long history of protecting the privacy of persons who respond to its surveys and censuses. You might also add that keeping this information confidential is the law and that you personally have sworn or affirmed an oath not to disclose any information. Besides using your identification and other material, you must also examine your own approach to interviewing in order to be successful in reducing refusals. While it is essential to maintain a positive attitude, you must be familial' with the basic concepts of the survey and be confident when interviewing in order to provide a positive and professional impression to respondents. Review! Now complete the Review Exercise that follows. 3-7 Lesson S. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 3. Review Exercise 1. What is the purpose of the FH-Ll.A, Advance Letter? If a respondent asks you, "Why can't you select someone else?" how would you respond? What is the purpose of the FH-C. 1 , Reference Aid? Why is it important to maintain a friendly and professional attitude and answer all questions without injecting your personal opinion? 3-8 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 3. Lesson 3, Answer Key 1. What is the purpose of the FH-Ll.A, Advance Letter? The purpose of the FH-Ll.A, Advance Letter, is to inform each household about the Fish-Hunt Sun>ey and the FR contact, introduce the survey, explain its voluntary nature while stressing the importance of participating, and guarantee confidentiality. 2. If a respondent asked you, "Why can't you select someone else?" how would you respond? Tell the respondent that his/her answers are very important to this study because his/her household was selected to represent many other households in the country. We car^not substitute arwther address for his/her household because it would harm the quality of the sample data we collect. The success of the sur'vey depends on their participation in this voluntary survey. 3. What is the purpose of the FH-C.l, Reference Aid? When asking respondents certain interview questions that contain several options or choices, you will refer them to this aid so that they give the best possible answeris). Why is it important to maintain a friendly and professional attitude and answer all questions without injecting your personal opinion? Your businesslike and informed attitude can influence a respondent who is critical of any and all surveys. Please go to Lesson 4. 3-9 Lesson 3. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4 follows. 3-10 Form FH/ CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Lesson 4, Fish-Hunt Questions and Concepts Objective This lesson gives you an overview of some Fish-Hunt questions and concepts. At the end of this lesson, you will be familiar with the flow of the Fish-Hunt questions and able to define the following terms: ► Recreational Hunting Big game hunting Small game hunting Migratory bird hunting Other animal hunting Recreational Fishing Great Lakes fishing Other Freshwater fishing Saltwater fishing Nonconsumptive wildlife use and related terms 4-1 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Initial contact with the When you contact the household, the preferred household household respondent is a person who is at least 18 years of age and who is knowledgeable of the fishing, hunting, and wildlife observation activities of the household. If no 18 year old lives there, the interview can be done with someone who is 16+ years of age. Make a note at the -GENINTRO- screen, stating that the respondent is at least 16 years old. If a knowledgeable adult respondent is not available at the time you contact the household, you will end the interview and make arrangements to contact the household later. If an eligible respondent is available, you will introduce yourself. 4-2 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Initial contact with the household, Continued Verify address Verify that you have reached the correct address. Do this before giving the respondent any information about the survey. If this is not the correct address, the computer instrument will display instructions on how you will end the interview. If this is the correct address, you wiU proceed with the interview by introducing the survey. Advance Letter After you have verify the address, you will introduce yourself and ask the respondent if their household received the advance letter. I'm calling regarding the National Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and Wildlife-Associated Recreation. I am calling households to ask questions about such things as where people hunted, fished, or observed wildHfe and what types of expenditures they incurred. Did you receive our letter? 4-3 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Initial contact with the household, Continued Advance Letter, Continued If the respondent did not receive one and this is a personal visit, you would provide the respondent with a copy. Did you receive our letter? 4-4 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Initial contact with the household, Continued If the respondent did not receive the letter and this is a telephone interview, the computer program will send you to a screen where you would read the following information: -NOLETTER" The U.S. Bureau of the Census is conducting the National Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and Wildlife-Associated Recreation for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Your participation in this survey will help the Department of Interior obtain accurate information about people's involvement in fishing, hunting, and wildlife watching during 1996. Although there are no penalties for not answering questions, we encourage you to participate in this voluntary survey. For each household, we expect the interview to take from 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the size of your household. If you have any comments about this survey or have recommendations for reducing its length, I will be happy to provide you with an address to mail your comments. At this point you will verify the mailing address and proceed with the interview. 4-5 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Screener The first phase of the Fish-Hunt interview is called the screener. You will ask questions of the household respondent about the household members and find out which household members have participated in Fish-Hunt activities in 1995 and 1996 or plan to participate in 1996. Household Roster You will ask the screener questions of all people in the household, regardless of their participation in wildlife- associated activities. Names of persons staying in the household You will obtain the first and last names of each person in the household, starting with the person who owns or rents the home. The person who owns or rents the home is known as the reference person. Missing persons After you have entered into the computer all the names of the people staying at the household and you have verified the name of the household respondent (the person to whom you are speaking), you will verify with this person whether or not he/she forgot to mention any persons living in the household, such as the following: Babies or small children; Lodgers, boarders, employees that live in the household; Persons who usually live in the household but aie away now, traveling for work or business, on vacation, at school, or in a hospital; Anyone else who usually lives in the household. 4-6 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Household roster, Continued Usual place of residence Once you have aU the names of persons staying at the household, you will proceed to find out if this is the usual place of residence for each person listed. If this is not the person's usual place of residence, the instrument will not ask any more questions for that person. More questions about household members If this is the person's usual place of residence, you will proceed to get the following information for each household member: All household members: ► Age as of today; ► Relationship to the reference person; that is, the person who owns or rents the home; ► Sex; Age 16 and over: ► Marital status ► Education ► Whether any household member has a job or a business; ► Whether any household member is retired, going to school, keeping house, or doing something else; ► Whether any household member is now serving in the Armed Forces and if so, who; 4-7 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Household roster More questions about household members, Continued All household members: ► Origin (whether or not the household member(s) is of Spanish or Hispanic origin); ► Race; and Whether any person in the household has a disability; if so, who and what type (mobility, hearing, sight, or mental impairment). Hunting Once you collect the household demographic data, you will ask about the recreational hunting activities of household members age 6 years and over. "Recreational Hunting" is defined as: The sport of searching for wildlife with firearms or archery equipment with the intent to take or harvest it You will include only hunting for pleasure or recreation. You will not include the following: »• Trapping animals; ► Commercial hunting; ► Searching for animals to photograph; ► Capturing animals to put in zoos or research hospitals; 4-8 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Hunting, Continued Also, do not include people who did not have a weapon, but may have accompanied others in the field. In this section of the interview, you will ask the respondent some screening questions to find out if any household member: ► Has ever hunted game or other wildlife; ► Hunted game or wildlife during 1995 (that is, between January 1, 1995 and December 31, 1995), and if so, we want to know: if that was the first year the household member hunted; the number of days in 1995 the household member hunted; the amount of money the household member spent for hunting; ► Done any hunting since January 1, 1996. You will also ask for the most recent year before 1996 in which the household member hunted and how likely it is that this person will hunt or do any more hunting during 1996. 4-9 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB {5/96) Likelihood question If a person has not participated in any hunting, fishing, and wildlife-related recreational activities, Fish-Hunt wants to know the likelihood that a person will participate in such. An example of this question follows: How likely is it that you will do any hunting during 1996? 1. Very likely 2. Somewhat likely 3. Somewhat unlikely 4. Very unlikely This is how the likelihood question appears after the Hunting questions. This question appears after each section, asking the likelihood that a person will participate in that particular activity. A likelihood question is also asked of people who have already participated in 1996. You will ask if the respondent "will do any more hunting" in the example above. Fishing The next section of the interview asks about the recreational fishing activities of household members. Do not include commercial fishing and commercial shellfishing. 4-10 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Fishing, Continued The Fishing screening questions ask the same types of information as those for Hunting. "Recreational" fishing is defined as: The sport of catching or attempting to catch fish with a hook, line, net, spear, or archery equipment. Saltwater fishing and fresh water fish ing Recreational fishing also includes the following: ► Fishing through ice (ice fishing); ► Gathering shellfish (crabs, clams, oysters, lobsters, etc.), provided that the catching of shellfish is not intended to be used for bait; ► Gigging or shooting for frogs (a gig is a pronged fishing spear); and ► Seining and netting, provided it was not done to catch bait (a seine is a fishing net that hangs vertically in the water by means of weights at the lower edge and floats at the top.); You will also ask respondents who reside in coastal states whether they did any saltwater or freshwater fishing during 1995 (that is, between January 1, 1995 and December 31, 1995). "Saltwater fishing" is defined as: Fishing for finfish or shellfish in oceans, bays, sounds, and tidal waters of rivers and streams. 4-11 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Fishing Saltwater fishing and fresh water fish ing, Continued "Freshwater fishing" is defined as: Fishing in any body of water that is not included in the definition for saltwater. Examples of freshwater include rivers, lakes, streams, and ponds. Coastal states include the following: Designated Coastal States AL - Alabama MA -Massachusetts AK - Alaska MS - Mississippi CA - California NH - New Hampshire CT - Connecticut NJ - New Jersey DE - Delaware NY - New York DC - District of Columbia NC - North Carolina FL - Florida OR - Oregon GA - Georgia RI - Rhode Island HI - Hawaii SC - South Carolina LA - Louisiana TX - Texas ME - Maine VA - Virginia MD - Maryland WA - Washington DC - Washington, D.C. If the household is not located in a designated coastal state, the computer will skip you past the saltwater/freshwater fishing questions. We are not interested in knowing if saltwater or freshwater fishing was done outside the state of residence at this time. 4-12 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Nonconsumptive Wildlife Use (Special Interest Around the Home) This next section seeks to identify those persons who take a special interest in wildlife around the home. "Wildlife" refers to the following: Birds, mammals, flsh, insects, reptiles such as snakes and lizards, and amphibians such as frogs. Wildlife does not include farm animals and pets. "Around the home" refers to: Any place that is one mile or less from the home (within a one-mile radius). "Nonconsumptive" is used because, unlike hunting and fishing, there is nothing used up or consumed after your efforts. It's not consumed, therefore, it's nonconsumptive. 4-13 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Nonconsumptive Wildlife Use A "special interest in wildlife" includes the following: (Special Interest Around the Home), Continued ► Closely observing wildlife or trying to identify types of wildlife. This refers specifically to watching wildlife or specifically trying to identify types of wildlife that were not immediately recognized. Note: Do not include watching or observing wildlife while a person is actually busy doing something else. We are interested only in those occasions when an activity was chosen for the SPECIFIC purpose of enjoying wildlife. ► Feeding wildlife. This refers to providing bread crumbs, table scraps, or other food to birds, squirrels, wild deer, rabbits, etc. ► Photographing wildlife. This refers to taking pictures or videotapes of wildlife, provided that the wildlife is the subject of the picture or the film. Do not count pictures that may happen to have wildlife in the background. ► Maintaining a natural area or plantings (keeping up with weeding, watering, cutting back, etc.) for the benefit of wildlife. A "natural area" is an area that has been set aside to serve as a natural environment for wildlife. "Plantings" include such things as sunflowers and certain types of herbs, grasses, and trees which attract wildlife and which serve as a source of natural seeds and berries. Make sure that a concern for wildlife motivated the choice of plants. Include agricultural crops if a benefit to wildlife is an important concern, but do not include unwanted damage to a garden. 4-14 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Nonconsumptive Wildlife Use (Trips or Outings) Next, the section Nonconsumptive Wildlife Use (Trips or Outings) seeks to identify those persons that take trips or outings of at least one mile for the primary purpose of observing, photographing, or feeding wildlife. We define "Trips or outings" as: A recreational excursion of at least one mile from the respondent's home with the primary purpose of observing, photographing, or feeding wildlife. Do not include the following: ► Trips to zoos and museums; ► Any person who receives pay for a nonconsumptive use activity; and ► Any person who is an unpaid volunteer worker responsible for participating in a nonconsumptive use activity. Keep in mind that the primary purpose must be recreational and not job-related. 4-15 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Travel Questions This section will ask questions about all types of trips, including hunting and fishing, made by any member of the household. Therefore the respondent will be thinking of trips in a broader scope, for example trips for business or personal reasons. The travel questions will ask the following: ► If any member of the household took any trip(s) of 75 miles or more from home for any reason so far in 1996. ► How many trips of 75 miles or more from home that household members took in 1996; and ► What the primary reason for the trip(s) was(were): Hunting or fishing. Other recreational/pleasure. Business, Personal, Family or medical. Other. Household Income and Contact The questions in the Household Income and Contact section are asked of the respondent to get some information about the income of the household and to get the best day and time to call or visit if they are selected for the detailed portion of the survey. The computer will prompt you to ask for the income of the reference person, PLUS that of all other household members. You will also include the income of those household members who are temporarily absent from the home. 4-16 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Household Income and Contact, Continued Include the following as income: Wages and salary (before deductions for withholding taxes, Social Security, bonds, union dues, etc.) including commissions, tips. Armed Forces pay, cash bonuses, etc.; NET income from a person's own (unincorporated) business, professional practice, or farm. In this situation, a person's net income would be the gross receipts of the enterprise minus the business expenses; and Other income payments such as pensions, dividends, interest, unemployment or workmen's compensation. Social Security, veterans' payments, rents received from owned property (minus the operating costs), public assistance payments, regular gifts of money from friends or relatives not living in the household, alimony, child support, and other kinds of periodic money income other than earnings. Do not include the following as income: Income in kind such as room and board, free meals in restaurants, value of crops produced by a farmer, but consumed by his family, etc. Insurance payments or lump-sum inheritances; Occasional gifts of money from persons not living in the household or any exchange of money between relatives living in the same household; 4-17 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Household Income and Contact, Continued Money received from selling one's own house, car, or other personal property; Withdrawals of savings from bank accounts; and Tax refunds. The Household Income and Contact section also seeks to obtain the best day and time to call or visit. This question is asked so that any follow-up detailed interviews may be conducted at a time which is convenient to the household. This ends the screener part of the questionnaire. At this point, the computer instrument will select the household members to be included in the detailed interview. Some household members may be asked detailed questions about BOTH their hunting and fishing activities AND their nonconsuraptive use activities. Other household members may be asked detailed questions about either group. You will ask the selected persons detailed questions about fishing and hunting and/or nonconsumptive wildlife use, depending upon the respondent's answers to some of the screener questions. Each sample person selected becomes a respondent for their interview during the rest of the interview. The detailed interview The detailed interview consists of questions about fishing, hunting, and wildlife-associated recreational activities. 4-18 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Hunting The Hunting section of the detailed interview is broken down into three major subsections: ► Participation; ► Trip-related expenditures; and ► Hunting equipment expenditures. These questions deal with the kinds of hunting the respondent did, where the respondent went, what it cost, and what the respondent bought. Participation The first two questions in the Hunting section of the detailed interview asks about the respondent's participation in hunting and fishing between January 1, 1996 to the date of interview. This time period is known as the reference period. You will not include fishing and hunting occasions when the respondent only observed others doing these activities. Also, do not include scouting trips. These are exploratory trips taken to determine whether there is any fish or game in the area or to obtain information about the habits or characteristics of the fish or game in the area, in preparation for fishing or hunting. 4-19 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Hunting Participation, Continued You will obtain the following information: ► In which states the respondent hunted; ► The number of hunting trips the respondent took; ► The number of different days the respondent hunted; ► The kinds of game hunted by state; ► The number of days hunted for each species; ► Whether or not the respondent hunted on privately owned land and, if so, how many days; and ► Whether or not the respondent hunted on publicly owned land (land owned by the local, state, or Federal Government), and, if so, how many days. The hunting section in Part A is categorized into four types of game: ► Big Game, which includes large wild animals, such as deer, bear, moose, wild sheep, etc.; ► Small Game, which includes small wild animals, such as rabbit, quail, squirrel, pheasant, etc.; ► Migratory Birds, which includes such birds as geese, ducks, doves, etc. These birds regularly move from one region to another for feeding or breeding. ► Other Animals such as fox, coyote, groundhog, raccoon, mongoose, etc. These animals are not considered any other type of game. In some cases, these animals may be thought of as pests or varmints. 4-20 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Hunting Participation, Continued Include these animals only if they are hunted for sport or for the intent of taking or harvesting. Note: It is important to enter ALL types of game hunted as this determines what section of questions the respondent will be asked. Expenditures The Expenditures section asks about the respondent's trip-related expenses for hunting during the reference period (January 1, 1996 to the date of interview) by state. If the respondent paid for others or if someone else paid for the respondent, you will ask him/her to include only his/her share of the cost. You will ask about the expenditures for each of the hunting categories (Big Game, Small Game, Migratory Birds, and Other Animals) that the respondent hunted. If he/she hunted only big game, trip expenditures will only be asked for big game. You will include the following expenditures by type of game (that is. Big Game, etc.): ► Food, drink, and refreshments; ► Lodging at motels, cabins, lodges, or campgrounds, etc.; ► Public transportation, including airplanes, trains, buses, and car rentals, etc.; ► The round trip cost for transportation by private vehicle; ► Guide fees, pack trip or package fees; ► Public land use or access fees; ► Private land use or access fees (Do NOT include leases); 4-21 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB {5/96) Hunting Expenditures, Continued ► Equipment rental, such as boats, hunting or camping equipment, etc.; ► Boat fuel; ► Boat launching fees; ► Boat mooring, storage, maintenance, pumpout fees, and insurance; and ► Heating and cooking fuel. Do NOT include amounts paid for the following: ► License fees; ► Stamps (an attachment affixed to the basic hunting or fishing license that enables the sportsman to hunt or fish for a particular species); ► Tags (a supplemental permit attached to the carcass that gives a hunter specific rights to take species not given by the basic license); or ► Equipment purchases. 4-22 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Hunting, Continued Hunting Equipment The Hunting Equipment questions seek the following information: ► The types of hunting equipment the respondent purchased or acquired (Include both new items and items that were previously owned by others): Rifles; Shotguns; Muzzleloaders or other so-called primitive firearms; Pistols, handguns; Bows, arrows, or other archery equipment; Telescopic sights; Decoys, game calls; Ammunition; Hand loading equipment and components (that is, powder, shot, etc.); Hunting dogs and associated costs; and Any other purchases (such as cases and carriers for equipment or game, hunting knives, etc.). ► The total cost of each equipment item purchased; 4-23 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB {5/96} Hunting Hunting Equipment, Continued Whether or not the purchased or acquired item was used PRIMARILY for hunting big game, small game, migratory birds, or other animals; Note: The purchased or acquired item should be used primarily for hunting. Do not include items purchased primarily for something else, or for hunting and another purpose. For example, if the respondent bought a knife which is used primarily for both hunting and wood carving, it should NOT be included. This holds true for items purchased for fishing and items purchased for both fishing and hunting also. ► The name of the state(s) where the equipment was purchased (ask respondents to include only those items that were purchased in the United States.)- You may enter up to 5 states. For example, let's say that the respondent bought 2 guns - 1 in Maryland and 1 in Virginia. We want both states. We ask the respondent if he/she did any hunting during the reference period with a bow and arrow or a muzzleloader or other so-called primitive firearms. We are interested in these particular forms of hunting equipment since they have recently gained new popularity. 4-24 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Fishing Participation The fishing section asks about the respondent's participation in fishing from January 1, 1996, to the date of interview. You will also ask questions about: ► Whether the respondent fished in the United States; ► In which states the respondent fished; and The number of days the respondent fished in the United States and in each state. ► Fish-Hunt is interested in collecting fishing data in three fishing categories: ► Great Lakes - This type of fishing includes fishing in the Great Lakes and their tributaries and connecting waters, which are the St Mary's River system, Detroit River, St. Claire River, and Niagara River. Great Lakes fishing also includes fishing for smelt, steelhead, or salmon in rivers that run into the Great Lakes; and fishing in the St. Lawrence River, south of the bridge at Cornwall. 4-25 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Fishing, Participation, Continued Other Freshwater - The Fish-Hunt Survey is interested in obtaining data on any other freshwater fishing that the respondent may have done during the reference period that was not in the Great Lakes. Basically, the Other Freshwater and the Saltwater (below) sections will collect the same type of information as the Great Lakes Fishing section. However, for this section, we want to know if the respondent fished in ponds, lakes, or reservoirs or fished in rivers or streams. Saltwater fishing - This is fishing for finfish or shellfish in oceans, bays, sounds, and tidal waters of rivers and streams. In addition to the questions discussed in the Great Lakes and Other Freshwater sections, the saltwater section asks questions concerning: Whether the respondent fished ONLY for crabs, clams, or other shellfish but NOT finfish. Whether the respondent fished for finfish ONLY. More about Great Lakes Fishing As we mentioned in Lesson 1, Fish-Hunt will use data on the Great Lakes to identify and analyze the extent and value of these important fishery resources for recreation. If the respondent lists a Great Lakes state as a place that he/she has fished during the reference period, you will obtain the following information on fishing in the Great Lakes: ► Whether the respondent did any Great Lakes fishing in United States waters during the reference period; 4-26 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Fishing More about Great Lakes Fishing, Continued If so, in which of the Great Lakes, including their tributaries and connecting waters: (1) Lake Ontario, including Niagara River (2) Lal(e Erie, including St. Claire and Detroit Rivers (3) Lake Huron, including St. Mary's River (4) Lake St. Claire (5) Lake Michigan (6) Lake Superior (7) St. Lawrence River south of the bridge at Cornwall (8) The tributaries to the Great Lakes used for smelt, steelhead, or salmon fishing The number of days the respondent fished in that Lake or connecting water; The state(s) in which the respondent did the Great Lakes fishing (They may enter up to 3 states); The number of trips the respondent took in the specified state to go Great Lakes fishing; The number of different days in that state the respondent took to go Great Lakes fishing; and What the respondent fished for. Note: We are not interested in what the respondent caught, but rather what the respondent was primarilv fishing for. 4-27 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Fishing, Continued Expenditures The Fishing Expenditures section is similar to the Hunting Expenditures section with the exceptions listed below. In addition to the expenditures listed in the Hunting Expenditures Section, we want to know how much was spent for the following (additions are in bold): ► Guide fees, pack trip or package fees (including fees for party and charter boats, etc.); ► Equipment rental such as boats, fishing or camping equipment, etc.; ► Bait (live, cut, prepared); ► Ice. Fishing Equipment The Fishing Equipment section asks similar questions to those questions in the Hunting Equipment section. This part asks about the following fishing equipment purchased in the United States that the respondent bought PRIMARILY for fishing. Include both new items and items that were previously owned by others. ► Rods, reels, poles, and rod making components; ► Lines and leaders; ► Artificial lures, flies, baits, and dressing for flies or lines; ► Hooks, sinkers, swivels, and other items attached to a line, except lures and baits; ► Tackle boxes; ► Creels, stringers, fish bags, landing nets, and gaff hooks; 4-28 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Fishing Fishing Equipment, Continued Minnow traps, seines, and bait containers; Depth finders, fish finders, and other electronic fishing devices; Ice fishing equipment (such as tip-ups and tilts, ice fishing houses, etc); and Any other purchases (such as scales, knives, fishing hook disgorgers, fish fighting chairs, outriggers, downriggers, rod holders and rod belts, fishing vests, and scuba equipment). Fishing and Hunting Equipment and Items The Fishing and Hunting Equipment and Items section asks questions about items purchased in the United States that are primarily used for either fishing or hunting. Include both new items and items that were previously owned by others. These items include: ► Camping equipment (such as sleeping bags, packs, duffel bags, tents, etc.); ► Binoculars, field glasses, telescopes, etc.; ► Special fishing or hunting clothing, foul weather gear, boots, waders, etc.; ► Processing and taxidermy costs; ► Books and magazines devoted to fishing or hunting; ► Dues or contributions to national, state or local organizations; ► Any other purchases (such as snowshoes, skis, maintenance and repair of equipment, etc.). Do NOT include boats or vehicles. 4-29 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Fishing Fishing and Hunting For each of the items purchased, the Fish-Hunt Survey Equipment and Items, will collect: Continued ► Total cost; ► Information as to whether the item is PRIMARILY for use in fishing OR hunting. Note: If the item is used for both fishing and hunting ask for which it is used most often, then enter that response into the computer. If the respondent says the item is used equal amounts of time for both fishing and hunting, probe for a better response. If he/she is unable to say it is used more for one or the other, enter "Unable to specify. " ► If the item is primarily used for fishing, whether the item is used primarily for Great Lakes, other freshwater, OR saltwater fishing. If used in each category, probe to find out where it is used most often. ► If the item is primarily used for hunting, whether the item is used for primarily hunting big game, small game, migratory birds, OR other animals. If used each category, probe to find out where it is used most often. ► In what state(s) was the item purchased. You may enter up to 5 states (the respondent may have bought more than 1 of a specified item). 4-30 Form F H/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Fishing, Continued Special Fishing Methods The Special Fishing Methods section asks whether the respondent used any of the following fishing methods during the reference period and, if so, the number of days: ► Catch and release fishing; ► Flyfishing; and ► Icefishing. Most Recent Trip The Most Recent Trip section asks about the respondent's most recent trip to go hunting or fishing in the United States. Fish-Hunt wants to know: ► If this last trip the respondent took was a hunting trip or a fishing trip; if the trip was for both hunting and fishing, ask the respondent which was the primary purpose. ► If the last trip was a hunting trip, you will ask the respondent: Whether he/she hunted big game, small game, migratory birds, or other animals; Whether the area in which the respondent hunted was woodland; brush covered ai'ea; open field; marsh, wetland, or swamp; or a lake or stream; 4-31 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB {5/96) Fishing Most Recent Trip, - The one way travel distance, in miles from Continued the respondent's home to the site he/she hunted on his/her last trip; and The direction the respondent travelled to get to this site. ► If the last trip was a fishing trip, you will ask the respondent: Whether that trip was a freshwater or saltwater fishing trip; If Freshwater, whether the respondent fished in ponds or lakes; streams or rivers; or in the Great Lakes. The one way travel distance in miles from the respondent's home to the site where he/she fished on his/her last trip; and The direction the respondent travelled to get to this site. Nonconsumptive Use The Nonconsuraptive Use section is asked of the respondent to see if he/she observes and enjoys wildlife in ways other than hunting and fishing. Wildlife refers to birds, mammals, fish, insects, reptiles such as snakes and lizards, and amphibians such as frogs. We are not interested in farm animals and pets. 4-32 Form FH/CAPI-lOB {5/96) Lesson 4. Primary Trip Information If the respondent has not been selected to participate in the questions about nonconsumptive use, the instrument will skip these questions but you will still ask the following two questions in the Primary Trip Information section of the "Nonconsumptive Use" portion of the questionnaire: From January 1, 1996 to (Date of Interview), did you take any special interest in wildlife around your home, other than simply noticing wildlife while doing other activities? By this I mean did you closely observe, feed, or photograph wildlife vdthin a one-mile radius of your home, OR did you maintain any natural areas or plantings around your home FOR WHICH BENEFIT TO WILDLIFE WAS AN IMPORTANT CONCERN? and From January 1, 1996, to (Date of Interview) did you take any trips or outings in the United States of at least one mile for the PRIMARY PURPOSE of observing, feeding, or photographing wildlife? Do not include trips to zoos, circuses, aquariums, museums, or trips for hunting or fishing, or scouting for game for hunting. 4-33 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Primary Trip Information, Although we ask for this information of the household Continued respondent concerning each household member's wildlife- associated activities, we will still ask each sample respondent the above two questions. This assures us that we collect all Fish/HuntAVildlife data from each sample respondent. After you've entered a response to the above two questions, the instrument will display a screen where you will thank the respondent and end the interview for the current respondent. We will discuss the closing of the interview shortly. For those respondents selected to participate in that part of the interview about "Nonconsumptive Use," the instrument will ask questions about their activities from January 1, 1996 to the date of interview that involved observing, photographing, or feeding wildlife. The Primary Trip Information section concerns the respondent's wildlife-related trips or outings of at least one mile from where he/she lived. You will not include trips to zoos, circuses, aquariums, museums, or trips for hunting or fishing, or scouting for game for hunting. The Primary Trip Information asks whether or not the respondent took any trips or outings in the United States of at least one mile for the PRIMARY purpose of observing, feeding, or photographing wildlife during the reference period. For each state the respondent visited, the instrument will prompt you to obtain the following information: ►• The number of trips; ► The total number of days spent doing these activities; Whether the respondent observed, photographed, or fed wildlife; 4-34 Form FH/CAPl-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Primary Trip Information, Continued The number of days spent observing, photographing, or feeding wildlife; Whether the respondent visited any areas on privately-owned land or public land; The sites the respondent visited, including the following: Ocean side; Lake or stream side; Marsh/wetland/swamp; Woodland; Brush-covered area; Open field; Man-made area (golf course, cemetery, urban park, etc.) or Other. Whether or not the respondent observed, photographed, or fed: Fish; Large land mammals such as deer, bears, etc.; Small land mammals such as squirrels, prairie dogs, groundhogs, etc.; Marine mammals such as seals, whales, dolphins, etc.; or 4-35 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Primary Trip Information, Continued Other wildlife such as frogs, turtles, crabs, butterflies, etc. ► Whether or not the respondent observed, photographed, or fed birds and, if yes, did the birds include: Birds of prey such as hawks, owls, and eagles; Waterfowl such as ducks, geese, and swans; Other water birds such as shorebirds, herons, and pelicans; Songbirds such as robins, cardinals, and warblers; or Other birds such as pheasants, turkeys, and roadrunners. Once you have obtained the information for the first state the respondent visited, the instrument will prompt you to ask the same questions for the next state, if any. The instrument will allow you to ask wildlife-related nonconsumptive use questions for up to three states. Trip expenditures This part asks about the same trip expenditures as those asked for the Hunting part of the instrument. Here you will ask about the respondent's expenses for all trips or outings he/she took for the PRIMARY purpose of observing, photographing, or feeding wildUfe. For each of the items Usted, we want to know ONLY the respondent's share of the expenses. If someone else paid the respondent's share or the respondent paid for someone else, ask what was spent just for the respondent. 4-36 For m FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Primary Residential Wildlife The Primary Residential Wildlife Experiences section Experiences seeks information about the respondent's experiences with wildlife around his/her home; that is, the area within a one-mile radius of the respondent's home. Fish-Hunt wants to know if the respondent did the following: ► Closely observed wildlife or tried to identify types of wildlife he/she did not know. If the response is yes, then Fish-Hunt wants to know what kinds of wildlife they observed and for how many days: Birds; Large mammals (such as deer, bears, etc.); Small mammals (such as rabbit, squirrel, quail, etc.); Reptiles or amphibians; Insects or spiders; or Fish or other wildlife. Photographed any type of wildlife around his/her home. If yes, Fish-Hunt wants to know how many different days. Fed the birds around his/her home. If yes, Fish- Hunt wants to know which month(s) the respondent fed birds a least once a week. Fed any kind of fish or wildlife other than birds around his/her home. If yes, Fish-Hunt wants to know which months. 4-37 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Primary Residential Wildlife Experiences, Continued Visited any public parks or publicly-owned natural areas within a one-mile radius of the respondent's home for the purpose of observing, photographing, or feeding wildlife. If yes, the respondent will report the number of days he/she visited these areas. Equipment Expenditures The Equipment Expenditures section asks about equipment and other items purchased PRIMARILY for use in observing, photographing, or feeding fish or wildlife during the reference period. Ask the respondent to report only items that were purchased in the United States. Include both new items and items previously owned by others. You will ask about two lists of equipment. The items on the first list include: Binoculars, spotting scopes, etc.; Cameras, videocameras, special lenses, or other photography equipment; Film and developing; Commercially prepared and packaged wild bird food; Other bulk food used to feed wild birds; Food used to feed other wildlife; Nest boxes, bird houses, feeders, or baths; and Any other purchases (such as field guides, maps, etc.) 4-38 Form F H/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Equipment Expenditures, For each of the above items, the instrument will prompt Continued you to ask the total cost (if it is a gift to the respondent, then the respondent should estimate the cost of the gift) and the state(s) where the item(s) was purchased. You can have up to 5 states. The items on the second list include: ► Tents, tarps; ► Frame packs, backpacking equipment; ► Day pack, carrying cases, or special clothing (such as foul weather gear, camouflage clothing, boots, etc.) ► Books and magazines specifically devoted to fish or wildlife; ► Dues or contributions to national, state, or local conservation or wildlife-related organizations; and ► Other (including blinds). Do not include boats, cabins, or vehicles. For each of the above items, the instrument will prompt you to ask the total cost and the state (s) where the item(s) was purchased. You can have up to 5 states. 4-39 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Most Recent Trip The Most Recent Trip section of the Nonconsumptive Use part of the interview is the same as that for the Hunting and Fishing part. You will ask the respondent about the most recent trip in the United States that he/she took to observe, photograph, or feed wildlife. Fish-Hunt wants to know: Which of the following best describes the area where the respondent observed, photographed, or fed wildlife on their last trip: Ocean side; Lake or stream side; Marsh, wetland, or swamp; Woodland; Brush covered area; Open field; Man made area (golf course, cemetery, urban park, etc.); or Other. The one-way distance in miles from the respondent's home to the site where he/she went to observe, photograph, or feed wildlife; The direction travelled to get to the above site; 4-40 Form FH/CAPI-lOB (5/96) Lesson 4. Did the respondent hunt/fish? The following questions have the same purpose as those asked of the respondent at the end of the Hunting and Fishing part of instrument (See page 31): ► Did the respondent hunt game or other wildlife during the reference period; ► Did the respondent do any recreational fishing, including shellfishing, during the reference period; End of survey questions This ends the Fish-Hunt survey questions. Keep in mind that the instrument will prompt you to ask the detailed hunting and fishing and/or the detailed nonconsumptive use questions for each selected respondent in the sample household. When you have completed the interview with a respondent, the instrument will send you to the "Thank you" screen, where you say: That concludes our interview. Thank you for your time and cooperation. May I please speak to (Next respondent's name)? If the next respondent needing to be interviewed is not available, you will ask for the next "noninterviewed" respondent. If there are any respondents that still need to be interviewed but are not available, you will go to a series of screens where you will schedule a call-back to contact the household again. If there are no more household members to be interviewed, you will end the interview with the last respondent. 4-41 Lesson 4. Form FH/CAPI-IQB (5/96) Closing of the interview The final questions on the instrument close the interview with the respondent. If the interview is complete, the computer program takes you through a series of screens where you will thank the respondent for his/her cooperation. Once you have completed the interview and are out of the case, you will not be able to go back into this case except to review notes. If asked, you may tell the respondent we will contact him/her for one more interview. I NOTES In the Notes section, you will make any notes about this case. Always start your note by entering your FE. code and the current date.
