本研究旨在取用1991年全美國家釣魚、狩獵及野生動物相關遊憩調查資料分析區域性個人對非消耗性野生動物遊憩活動之消費支出行爲。在選用適切的計量經濟模型過程中，並考量符合消費者需求理論和非消耗性野生動物遊憩活動，Tobit模型分別應用在分析個人之遠距和近距對非消耗性野生動物遊憩活動之消費支出情形。實證結果顯示，在遠距消費支出模型中，個人收入、種族膚色、么私有林地等影響因子，對於非消耗性野生動物遊憩活動之消費支出情形具有相對的顯著性。在近距消費支出模型中，性別、就業情形、種族膚色、野生動物包括鳥類和哺乳類動物、前往公有公園或自然地區、維護自然地區等影響因子，對於非消耗性野生動物遊憩活動之消費支出情形具有相對的顯著性。本研究結果可以瞭解非消耗性野生動物遊憩活動消費支出之影響因子，藉以提供自然資源經營管理及非消耗性野生動物經營管理在規劃與決策時之參考。

This study utilized cross-sectional data obtained from the 1991 U.S. National Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and Wildlife-Associated Recreation to analyze individual consumption behavior of nonconsumptive wildlife recreation at a regional level. In the process of selecting an appropriate model most consistent with individual consumption behavior associated with nonconsumption wildlife recreation, the tobit model for the primary nonresidential and residential expenditure models was evaluated. In the primary nonresidential expenditure model, income, ethnicity, private or public lands, and forest lands had a significant effect on nonconsumptive wildlife recreation expenditures. In the primary residential expenditure model, gender, employment status, ethnicity, wildlife including birds and mammals, visiting public parks or natural areas, and maintaining natural areas had a significant effect on nonconsumptive wildlife recreation expenditures. The results in this study provide insight into determinants of nonconsumptive wildlife recreation expenditures which can be used for planning and decision making purposes for natural resource management and nonconsumptive wildlife management.
