Behavior research in the study of man/environment relations has advanced significantly with the advent of computer technology. More and different types of multi-variant analysis was possible and led to the development of many new discoveries and models. The purpose of this study was to investigate the development of a preliminary model for examining the complexity of man/environment relations. A predictive regression model was formulated which accounted for approximately 70 per cent of variance in recreation behavior for a user and general population.
