Notice that it won't do to try and extract the existence claim from the propositional attitude environment, for then we get an actual existence claim, which is definitely not what we want.
In a previous study, we showed that users had high expectations of the quality of the services, including staff attitude, environment, meals, and personal care.
The new paradigm espouses the critical distinction between 'impairment' – a loss of biological function – and 'disability' – a social process of exclusion caused by barriers of attitude, environment and organization.
While the users' feelings about the new service could not be reflected by the rehabilitation outcomes, the informal feedback we obtained revealed that service users clearly had expectations toward the quality of services, including staff attitude, environment, meals, and personal care, in addition to the rehabilitation provided by the program.
In conclusion, attitudes towards environment and nature, animal welfare and the need for an environment-friendly food production were indeed related to citizens' specific attitudes towards pig farming at the cluster level.
In relation to consumer awareness, we can assert that the studied sample is very conscious, presenting high scores for attitudes towards environment.
Results from the analysis of consumers indicate the presence of egalitarian values, and positive attitudes towards environment and technological progress, as well as a positive attitude and intention to buy eco-innovative food.
The model in Figure 1 first assumes direct causal relationships between: a) egalitarian values of consumers and their attitudes towards environment and nature ("Collectivism - AttEnviro"); and b) self-promoting values and attitudes towards technological progress ("Individualism - AttTechno").
The survey indicates that consumers presented strong egalitarian values, such as benevolence and universalism, and very positive attitudes towards environment and technological progress, as well as a positive attitude and intention to buy eco-innovative food.
The study might partly seek to answer the above questions, and also provide policy makers and concerned people more information about residents' attitudes toward environment and natural resources as well as the benefits of biodiversity conservation.
Cronbach's alpha scores for the three attitudinal scales were satisfactory to very high (0.78 for the attitudes towards environment and nature, 0.82 for the attitudes towards technological progress; 0.82 for Attitudes towards food production; 0.84 for attitudes towards eco-innovative food; and 0.94 for Attitude towards Industrial production).
