本研究乃探討休閒潛水者的環境態度與環境行為之關係。研究中採問卷調查方式，對在墾丁地區從事休閒潛水之潛水者進行資料搜集，共回收265份問卷，取得259份有效問卷。研究資料使用因素分析、信度分析、單因子變異數分析及典型相關分析等方法。 實證結果發現，休閒潛水者大部分的社經背景與環境態度和環境行為之間並無顯著差異性。然而，休閒潛水者的潛水經驗與大部分環境態度和環境行為之間具有顯著差異性，且潛水經驗越高者越有正向的環境態度和環境行為。 休閒潛水者環境態度與環境行為的典型相關分析，第一典型相關指出，休閒潛水者的環境態度越正面，其環境行為會越正向，也愈會採取相關的環境保護行動及表現出負責任之環保行為。第二典型相關指出對海洋環境的態度越不負責任、支持在礁區興建便利的人工設施及對環境教育不重視的潛水者，其對於發現其他潛水者有破壞海洋環境的情事時，並不會說服他們不要做破壞環境的事或採取法律行動去制止其不當的行為。 The purpose of this research is to investigate the relationship between environment attitude and environmental behaviorfor the recreational Scuba divers. The sample collection method is using personal interview by questionnaires. The population of this survey is individuals who are Scuba divers currently active in Kenting Area. A total of 265 samples were collected. Among them, 259 samples were valid and used for data analysis. The sample success rate is 97.94 %. The statistical methods of Canonical coefficients analysis, Factor analysis (FA), Reliability Analysis and One-Way Analysis of Variance (One-way ANOVA) were used to analyze the questionnaire data. The survey results indicate that only part of the diver’s socioeconomic background has significant different (p<0.05) with their environment attitudes and behavior. However, the divers’ diving experiences have significant different (p<0.05) with most of the factors in their environmental attitudes and behavior. The more the diving experience the divers have, the more positive in their environment attitudes and behavior. For the first Canonical Coefficient analysis for the environmental attitudes and behavior, the results show that the more positive for the divers’ environmental attitudes is, the more positive for their environmental behavior. They will also tend to take more actions for environmental protection and showing higher undertakings for the environmental protection behavior. The second Canonical Coefficient analysis show that when finding other divers are polluting the ocean environment, these divers who have less undertakings for ocean environmental attitudes, supporting the construction of the human convenient facilities in lagoon area, and ignoring the important of environmental education will not persuade or take legal actions to stop their improper behavior.
