- Summary:
-
This paper analyzes past studies of outdoor recreational behavior from the point of view of symbolic interactionism. This perspective focuses directly on the manner in which individuals interpret the words and behavior of others, as well as their own physical environment. The first part of the analysis examines some recent definitions of recreation and data on outdoor recreation. The second part is devoted to a social-psychological scrutiny of this form of human action. Specific attention is given to demonstrating the usefulness of symbolic interactionism as a way to regard outdoor recreational behavior as a learned and symbolically transmitted social action.
