This study investigated the effects of participation in a 45-day adventure tourism experience on the reported self-concepts of stratified participants. Two groups of college students were selected from different parts of the United States for the control and treatment samples. The control group had no exposure to the adventure tourism experience. The treatment group participated in a 45-day adventure tour of Australia and New Zealand during the winter of 1995.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This study investigated the effects of participation in a 45-day adventure tourism experience on the reported self-concepts of stratified participants. Two groups of college students were selected from different parts of the United States for the control and treatment samples. The control group had no exposure to the adventure tourism experience. The treatment group participated in a 45-day adventure tour of Australia and New Zealand during the winter of 1995.
520 $a The experimental protocol consisted of a repeated measures design, with 45 days between each of three testing phases. Previous studies have utilized shorter treatment periods; all showing marginal significance in self-concept gain. The Tennessee Self Concept Scale (TSCS) a 100 item, self-descriptive Likert scaled instrument, was utilized in the study. The TSCS is a standardized instrument widely applied by social scientists internationally. A total of 78 students completed all three testing phases with an overall response rate of 97.5%.
520 $a The data were analyzed using a two-way multivariate analysis of variance for repeated measures. The two main effects of time and group and their combined interaction were measured on the five dimensions of the TSCS. These dimensions comprised the dependent variables in the study.
520 $a The analysis of the data for each of the three effects were found not to be significant at the.05 level. At the.1 level however, the interaction effect in the subscales of family and personal self were found to be significant. As a result of these findings all null hypotheses were supported. These results were consistent with the related reported findings (Ewert, 1984; Fox, 1994).
520 $a No significant quantitative evidence of self-concept enhancement was derived from the research. While not a specific part of this research, considerable qualitative support, in the form of journal entries and anecdotal testimony, emerged during the study. The appropriateness of TSCS in the adventure tourism setting was subsequently questioned. Further research into self-concept and the adventure tourism experience should utilize a more concise and focused quantitative instrument in conjunction with a carefully selected qualitative protocol.
