  1. belief mgmt adapt: belief in the need to adjust forest management practices; dnk belief climate change: do not know whether climate change is happening: dnk how adapt, do not know how to adapt forest management. All diagnostic statistics given for the logistic regression model are significant at α = 0.05. The null deviance = 460.49, the degrees of freedom for the null model = 390, the residual deviance = 175.71, and the residual degrees of freedom = 381. The model fits the data significantly better than the null model (p < 0.0001)
