q2 · i? · design · r2

Quantitative analysis of anthropocentric subcategories (natural resource, health, recreational-aesthetic value) among 147 total initial-interview responses, plotted in Figure 2. The Health subcategory increased more than sixfold; the authors attribute this to attainment of the program's cognitive objectives supporting emotional goals.

"In the second interview subcategory C.I.1 remains stable, C.I.2 increased more than sixfold its answers and C.I.3 increases them considerably, as shown in Figure 2."
