Jerry Vaske, professor of human dimensions of natural resources at Colorado State University, presents this free and public seminar.

A primary goal of human dimensions research is to provide information that can inform and improve decision-making. The Potential for Conflict Index (PCI) and associated graphical display were developed to facilitate understanding and applicability of human dimensions findings to managerial concerns and to non-technical audiences. The approach requires little statistical training to understand results, minimizes effort required to process information, and improves comprehension. This presentation will: (a) introduce the second generation of the PCI (PCI2), and (b) demonstrate how to calculate, graph and statistically compare PCI2 values.
