Creator:: Granite, Mary Lou
Abstract:: The investigation of energy considerations in the remodeling of single family owner-occupied dwellings was the central purpose of this study. Variables studied included relationships between demographic characteristics and the inclusion of energy conservation techniques, planning of the remodeling, and ranking of considerations in the remodeling. A sample of 225 owner-occupants...

Creator:: Beck, Becky Ohmer
Abstract:: This study focused on the relationship between energy related behaviors prior to and following structural modifications of the residence. If energy saving structural modifications are made, will there also be a concommitant change in energy conserving behavioral practices? The objectives of this study were: 1) to create a profile of...

Creator:: Yoo, Kyung Sook
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to further the understanding of two types of renter households' energy problem belief and energy conservation behaviors. The theoretical framework for this study was Niemeyer's (1982) model of energy adjustment. Niemeyer found that resource constraints were the significant factors in the number of existing...

Creator:: Buck, Lynn E.
Abstract:: The purpose of the study was to address the three limitations of previous research as identified by the Western Region W-139 Technical Committee (1980). First, specific hypotheses were tested. Second, through hypotheses testing, understanding was gained of energy conservation behavior and energy problem perceptions. Third, the sample size was large...
