Jody Enck joined the Department of Natural Resources in 1986. He conducts research in the Human Dimensions of Natural Resource Management and pursues questions, such as: What are people's attitudes towards natural resource issues? What motivates people to participate in natural resource-based activities? How do people come to think of themselves as conservationists?
