碩士 === 東海大學 === 景觀學系 === 87 === ABSTRACT It can’t be avoided after processing outdoor recreation activities which may cause different impacts on the ecological resources , including vegetation、soil、wildlife and water ect. . The Ow-One-Ta forest recreation area is the study area in this research .We surveyed the visitors’ cognition of recreation resource impact and the attitudes toward prevention by using personal interview. And then we discussed the relationship between the two items into the more detail. Through the results by certification, we can manifest that 1. There are significant correlation between the diffrent attributes and the groups of visitors’ cognition of recreation resource impact. 2. By using factor analysis on the visitors’ attitudes toward prevention strategies, we attained three factors , namely , “visitors admitted” , “base management” and “interpretation strategy”. 3. Different visitors’ attributes result in the different types of attitudes toward prevention strategies. 4. The different groups of visitors’ cognition of recreation resource impact result in the different attitudes toward prevention strategies. The issues of management of LAC planning system and VIM planning process emphasize that we need to combine the viewpoints from researchers, managers and visitors. It means that only when people have cognition about the recreation resource impacts, then we could get started to estimate the acceptability of environment when the impacts happen. We hope hereby that the results of this research could provide references for managers when they enact measures or strategies in the future.
