Examples of specific topics included are: sportsman characteristics, preferences, opinions, and attitudes; economic impact of sportsmen and wildlife; hunter safety and law enforcement; the wildlife profession, education, and administration; nonconsumptive uses of wildlife; and history. The authors were impressed by the great number and diversity of articles on human behavior aspects of fish and wildlife but dismayed at the lack of rigorous research on the subject.l The following table presents a categorized summary of the 218 different reference sources in which the 995 articles listed in this bibli- ography were found. This overview of articles and their sources suggests substan- tial concern with people problems by managers, reflected in talks and papers to conferences and by articles in their department-sponsored magazines.

We hope this compilation of annotated references to the literature will provide needed impetus and information to increase the amount and quality of research and professional debate about human behavior aspects of fish and wild- life conservation. The abstracts accompanying most of the articles attempt to describe substan- tive content and conclusions rather than describing what the.article is about. This bibliography has several features to aid the user. (1) "Abbreviations and Frequency of Referenced Material'' gives the exact abbreviations for all journals, magazines, and other sources cited in the bibliography and the number of articles referenced. This list reflects the great diversity of sources in which wildlife conservation topics are covered. (2) The section "Other Biblio- graphical Sources Used to Locate References'' may be useful to readers seeking additional wildlife or natural resource materials. (3) The "Author Index" lists in alphabetical order all of the authors included in the bibliography; this includes all junior authors in addition to senior authors. (4) The keywords with each reference and the "Keyword Index'' will aid the user in two ways. The index is used like any book index--you look up specific topics of interest and go directly to the numbered references on that topic. In addition, the keywords , listed with each reference give a quick review of topics covered in that document and may include some topics not mentioned in the annotation. We apologize in advance for any injustices, inaccuracies, or omissions that are sure to result from the review of such a massive amount of material. Readers are urged to correspond with the authors regarding errors contained in this biblio- graphy. If appropriate references have been omitted, we would appreciate receiving a copy or knowing of their title and source. Our objective is the most complete collection of annotated references possible on the subject , "human behavior aspects of fish and wildlife conservation." These should be sent to: Wildland Recreation Research Pacific Northwest Forest and Range Experiment Station 4507 University Way N.E. Seattle, Washington 98105 Persons desiring publications included, in this bibliography should go to the reference source cited or write to the agency which sponsored the publication. Neither the Pacific Northwest Forest and Range Experiment Station nor the authors can provide copies of any references listed in.this bibliography, except material -jublished by the Station. The authors wish to thank the Wildlife Management Institute and the American Petroleum Institute for partially funding the compilation of this bibliography. In addition, the able assistance is acknowledged of the following students in compiling this bibliography: Robert Muth, Maureen McLean, and Mary Price, Univer- sity of Washington, Steve Lewis, Seattle Pacific College, and Glenn Uno, Washington State University. 2 ABBREVIATIONS AND FREQUENCY OF RE FEREN CED MATE RI AL~ Number of References Abbreviation Inc Zuded Source Am.
