摘要

美国国家公园管理局（NPS）保护国家的自然和历史遗产。然而，对NPS单位的访问和认识与美国公众的人口结构不成比例。为了弥补这一差距，NPS实施了教育、文化和娱乐项目，但它们的有效性和对不同社会经济群体的影响并没有在文献中得到充分的记录。本研究使用全国人口调查数据（n = 1334）来调查不同种族/民族群体对NPS计划的认识，并确定与NPS计划认识相关的因素。结果表明，公众对NPS教育和娱乐项目的认识普遍较低，特别是在黑人受访者中。访问状况、空间可达性、受教育程度、年龄和家庭年收入是影响NPS计划认知度的重要因素。研究结果强调了NPS举措的重要性，并确定了加强NPS管理与不断变化的美国人口统计的相关性的战略。

A nationwide assessment of awareness about US national parks

The US National Park Service (NPS) preserves the natural and historical legacy of the country. However, visitation and awareness about NPS units are disproportionate to the demographics of the American public. To bridge this gap, the NPS implemented educational, cultural, and recreational programs, but their effectiveness and outreach to different socio-economic groups are not fully documented in the literature. This study used a nationwide general population survey data (n = 1,334) to investigate the awareness about NPS initiatives among different racial/ethnic groups and identified factors associated with awareness about NPS programs. Results indicated that public awareness of NPS education and recreation programs was generally low, particularly among Black respondents. Visitation status, spatial accessibility, education, age, and annual household income were important factors influencing awareness of NPS programs. Study findings highlighted the importance of NPS initiatives and identified strategies to enhance the relevance of NPS stewardship with the changing American demographic.
