Energy expenditures, perceived family well being, and energy
conservation actions were analyzed by family composition and level of
income. Data were from a three state subsample (Arizona, Colorado,
and Oregon; N = 2,633) of a larger stratified random sample of
households in the Western United States. Data were collected in...
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...
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...

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...
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...
