It delineates the substantive consequences of dimensionality for our understanding of environmental behavior and both demographic and religious correlates of environmentalism. We found that our NEP-based Scale of Worldview contained two distinct dimensions that were differentially predicted by demographic and religious variables. Of particular importance was the relationship of religious fundamentalism to the two subscales thereby highlighting the inherent religious implications of NEP item wording. In general, we found that Worldviews do not contribute substantially to the prediction of Environmental Behavior. Additionally, Worldviews do not allow us to account for demographic differences in the performance of Environmental Behavior. We concluded that environmental worldviews have limited policy implications given the lack of correspondence to behavior but that they remain an important prerequisite to such behavior which is deserving of careful study. }, number={6}, journal={ENVIRONMENT AND BEHAVIOR}, author={Nooney, JG and Woodrum, E and Hoban, TJ and Clifford, WB}, year={2003}, month={Nov}, pages={763–783} } @article{hoban_1999, title={Consumer acceptance of biotechnology in the United States and Japan}, volume={53}, number={5}, journal={Food Technology}, author={Hoban, T.

Separate random samples were administered the same telephone survey five years apart. In the retest, respondents have less favorable attitudes toward the environment. Given this result, a temporally reliable contingent valuation would find lower willingness to pay. We find that the estimates are temporally reliable. After accounting for attitudes which have changed over the five-year period, values are not significantly different five years apart. This study provides additional evidence that use of the contingent valuation method can provide useful information for environmental policy analysis.}, number={3}, journal={LAND ECONOMICS}, author={Whitehead, JC and Hoban, TJ}, year={1999}, month={Aug}, pages={453–465} } @article{hoban_katic_1998, title={American consumer views on biotechnology}, volume={43}, number={1}, journal={Cereal Foods World}, author={Hoban, T.

This article examines an important innovation within the industry known as efficient consumer response (ECR). The conceptual model employed has been used for over 50 years to analyze the adoption and diffusion of innovations. The findings are based on 40 in-depth interviews conducted with top industry leaders representing manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers. General awareness of and interest in ECR was quite high among industry leaders. However, many respondents perceived ECR to be a very complex system that would have a wide range of impacts. Different industry segments expressed varying perceptions about ECR. The article concludes with recommendations for improving the management of change and successful implementation of innovations within the food industry. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.}, number={3}, journal={Agribusiness}, author={Hoban, T.

In a test of Lynn White style expectations, denominational subcultures with higher average levels of dominion belief are hypothesized to have lower average levels of environmental concern and behavior; likewise, subcultures with lower average levels of dominion belief are hypothesized to have higher levels of environmental concern and behavior. In no cases are the hypotheses supported; this indicates that denominational differences in dominion belief do not translate into differences in denominational environmentalism. Two additional findings are also discussed: 1) independent of dominion belief, Black Protestant denominations have lower average levels of environmentalism than other subcultures ; and 2) religious salience is found to have a positive effect on environmental concern and behavior when dominion belief is statistically controlled.

A model suggesting that public opposition to genetic engineering is influenced by demographic characteristics mediated by three intervening variables (awareness of genetic engineering, faith in government and industry, and moral objection to genetic engineering) is analyzed. Moral objection is the strongest predictor of opposition. Opposition is also related to lower awareness and less faith in institutions. Women are more likely to oppose genetic engineering than men.
