“…However, this is not the case in Canada where most recently Haener et al (2001) and Adamowicz et al (2004) have done relevant work in assessing aboriginal people values for subsistence hunting in the province of Saskatchewan. Haener et al (2001) and Adamowicz et al (2004) use choice experiments techniques that ''ygenerate discrete choice data that can be analyzed using methods based on random utility theory (Haener et al, 2001(Haener et al, : 1336.' ' Haener et al (2001) tried to explain differences in preferences between Aboriginal groups in Canada for hunting-site characteristics, among other things.…”

“…They further suggest that these differences are ''culturally based'' though they lack enough information on their culture to support this hypothesis. They concluded ''y that the technique [state preference method] can be used to provide information on values and behavioral responses to landscape changes (Haener et al, 2001(Haener et al, : 1339. '' Differences in responses across cultures might be expected at any one of several stages of a CVM design: (1) a scenario description of the problem, (2) one or more proposed solutions, and (3) an associated payment vehicle for the solution.…”

“…3 This is not only true of governments, as Haener et al (2001) and Adamowicz et al (2004) found that trust was an important factor in the data collection process during their work. To reduce this distrust barrier they hired a person who lived in the communities for a full year and still had to arrange the interviews through a community resident ''y who socially and culturally had access to the hunters (Haener et al, 2001(Haener et al, : 1336.…”

A contingent valuation method (CVM) study was used to compare survey response rates, protest refusals to pay, and median willingness-to-pay (WTP) of Native American communities in Montana compared to Montana's general population for two wildland fire mitigation strategies. Understanding differences in response rates, protest refusals to pay, and median WTP between Native Americans in the United States and the general population may shed some light on how well the method may work for indigenous people in other developed countries such as Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Native Americans survey response rates were not significantly different from Montana residents for the initial contact (first ARTICLE IN PRESS www.elsevier.de/jfe 1104-6899/$ -see front matter wave), but were significantly different for the follow-up in-depth phone interviews (second wave). Native Americans protest rate for the prescribed burning program was not statistically different from Montana residents. Conventionally calculated, protest rates for the mechanical fuels reduction program are higher for Montana's residents than Native Americans. Results from bivariate probit with sample selection models indicate that there is no significant difference between the Native American and Montana general populations' median WTP for either program. This suggests that in Montana, Native Americans and members of the general population generally yield similar results to CVM questionnaires of forest fire management.

We measure the value placed by the American public on ensuring the continued existence of the traditional Hopi culture and way of life at the Hopi Reservation in Arizona. The Hopi are the oldest living culture in the United States. The continued existence of the Reservation is threatened by depletion of the groundwater resource underlying the reservation. In the future, without a new source of water, the Hopi will run out of water to support the villages and continue their traditional Hopi agricultural practices. Many Hopi will have to move off the Reservation and give up their traditional culture and way of life. The Reservation will no longer serve as a permanent home for the Hopi Tribe. An expensive pipeline would be required to convey a new source of water to the Reservation, for which the Federal government might pay. The question is: would the expenditure by the federal government to convey water that would ensure the continued existence of the traditional Hopi culture at the Hopi Reservation be justified by the existence value of that culture to the American people? This paper describes the results of a study undertaken to measure that existence value. We show that a simple stated preference design, using only a single monetary amount, is sufficient to provide a bound.
