Abstract
A measure of visitor satisfaction with outdoor recreation is important for effective management. Cronbach's theory of generalizability was used to estimate the effects of time of measurement, item context, and item content on a recreation satisfaction measure, which was given to floaters on two rivers. The influences of item content, item context, and times were large, small, and none, respectively.Keywords
