Abstract

This study aims to develop a theoretical model delineating the components of activity attachment and their impact on the responsible behavior of anglers at the sea-fishing demonstration area located on the northern breakwater of Taichung Port, Taiwan. Utilizing systematic sampling, a total of 482 valid responses were collected, with statistical analyses conducted using IBM SPSS ver. 24 and AMOS 24 for Windows. The findings indicated that cognitive attachment to angling activities exhibited no significant influence on all domains of on-site environmental behavior, whereas affective and behavioral attachment to angling activities correlated positively with sustainable, pro-environmental, and environmentally friendly angling behaviors. This study developed a theoretical model to examine the relationship between activity attachment and on-site responsible behavior, providing both practical implications for fishing site management and contributing to the broader research on marine recreational activities.

考察活动依恋对负责任垂钓行为的影响：来自友好垂钓示范点垂钓者的见解

摘要本研究以台中港北部防波堤海钓示范区为研究对象，探讨活动依恋的构成要素及其对垂钓者负责任行为的影响。采用系统抽样法，共收集有效问卷482份，采用IBM SPSS ver进行统计分析。Windows系统的AMOS 24和AMOS 24。结果表明，钓鱼活动的认知依恋对现场环境行为各领域均无显著影响，而钓鱼活动的情感依恋和行为依恋与可持续、亲环境和环境友好型钓鱼行为呈正相关。本研究建立了一个理论模型来考察活动依恋与现场负责行为之间的关系，为渔场管理提供了实际意义，并有助于更广泛地研究海洋娱乐活动。

The journal publishes peer reviewed original research on all aspects of outdoor recreation planning and management, covering the entire spectrum of settings from wilderness to urban outdoor recreation opportunities. It also focuses on new products and findings in nature based tourism and park management. JORT is an interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary journal, articles may focus on any aspect of theory, method, or concept of outdoor recreation research, planning or management, and interdisciplinary work is especially welcome, and may be of a theoretical and/or a case study nature. Depending on the topic of investigation, articles may be positioned within one academic discipline, or draw from several disciplines in an integrative manner, with overarching relevance to social sciences and natural resources. JORT is international in scope and attracts scholars from all reaches of the world to facilitate the exchange of ideas. As such, the journal enhances understanding of scientific knowledge, empirical results, and practitioners'' needs. Therefore in JORT each article is accompanied by an executive summary, written by the editors or authors, highlighting the planning and management relevant aspects of the article.
