dc.description.abstractThe aim of this study is to determine the environmental attitudes and sensitivity levels of the farmers in Torbali district by the New Environmental Paradigm. thirteen expressions are provided to the farmers and the their agreement degrees are obtained using likert scale. The environmental attitude of the farmers in the district is calculated as 3,62. The result shows that the farmers consider natural environment moderately. Factor analysis is used for the variables of the new environmental paradigm to determine the environmental attitudes of the farmers in the same groups. Four different groups were elicited regarding the environmental attitudes as "ecological balance", "environment and living things", "natural resources" and "nature". Factor analysis scores were used in the cluster analysis which refers to three different groups. 49,5 of the farmers were named as "sensitive", 21,5% "moderate" and 29% "less sensitive". Two different models were estimated for discerning the effects of the factors on the environmental attitudes. The more the farmers are educated, the more sensitive attitudes they have. Furthermore, the farmers having more land are more sensitive to the environment. Risk lover farmers are less sensitive to the environment.en_US
