Two procedures for scoring the Recreation Experience Preference scales were investigated from using data obtained from respondents engaged in outdoor recreational activities in Pennsylvania (N = 463) and Michigan (N = 1531). Both scoring procedures were judged to yield acceptable levels of reliability and concurrent validity. In field situations where there is less time to question respondents, the briefer domain scoring strategy is preferred. When respondent time is not an issue, the scale score strategy is recommended.
