EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Healthy Land and Water is an independent, not-for-profit organisation that works with government,

industry and the community to protect and improve the sustainable use of land and waterways in South East Queensland. The organisation monitors and reports on the condition of these waterways and provides capacity building for professionals and community groups. It advises on reforms to policy and planning, and provides the education programs to motivate Queensland community members to value and protect Queensland waterways and the natural environment. Healthy Land and Water produces a report card that publishes an annual assessment of the pressures facing waterways across 18 local SEQ catchment areas, documenting their current environmental condition and the level of social and economic benefit the waterways provide to local communities. The data contained in this 2018 waterway engagement social research study contributes the social research data for the Healthy Land and Water annual report card.

Understanding the social benefits of local waterways provides important insights to how SEQ residents use and value waterways in their local area. The focus for the 2018 waterway engagement community survey is aligned with a social benefits measurement framework reflecting four key areas. The first is Experience; measured by waterway satisfaction, accessibility, useability, awareness, and appraisal. The second is Personal Benefit; measured by social value, transformation and fascination qualities. The third is Connection with Nature; measured by nature relatedness and motivation. The final is Stewardship; measured by the attribution of responsibility for protecting the environment, behavioural intention and life stage demographics.

Overall these areas of analysis help to continue strengthening the quality and depth of data used for the Waterways Benefit Ratings (report card) calculations and extend the understanding of the influences on waterway stewardship behaviours. Data for the 2018 study were collected through a self-administered 15 minute online survey. Questions for the survey were developed from modified existing scale items and questions used in previous Healthy Land and Water surveys to allow comparison. The sample was adults living in the 18 catchment areas in SEQ. The 2018 survey used two recruitment strategies for sampling; panel data and respondents recruited through social media, as a way to increase representation across catchments. Data were analysed using the statistical package SPSS (25). Quantitative analyses provided frequencies, mean statistics, correlations, cluster analysis and regressions.

The study found that generally SEQ residents remained satisfied with their experiences when using or visiting their local waterways however there was evidence of a decline in levels of satisfaction, useability and accessibility when compared to 2017, but remaining higher than 2016. Waterways continue to offer a destination that contributes to well-being through relaxation, and offering a break from routines. SEQ residents reported high levels of personal benefits from these experiences, indicating both social value and health value from relaxation. This was also expressed through an increase in connection to nature when compared to last year, and strong connection with nature and familiarity with local or favourite waterways. While the study found good levels of positive appraisal of waterways, suggesting residents generally felt their waterway was not polluted and they were largely satisfied, there was some variation across catchments. Residents generally felt local Councils had the main responsibility for maintaining and protecting waterways. Overall stewardship behavioural intentions remained low, suggesting weak intention to undertake behaviours to protect waterways.

SEQ residents continue to use waterways for activities on or beside the water, and at times travelled large distances to recreate in favourite waterways. However local waterways remained the most popular to use by SEQ residents. Recommendations focus on motivating stewardship behaviours through focusing on social oriented positive factors and education around raising awareness of minor waterways in local catchments. While findings indicated respondents were less likely to take personal actions to protect waterways, opportunities exist for individual education that highlights the importance of personal action in contributing to waterway protection.

1.0 Introduction

Healthy Land and Water is an independent, not-for-profit organisation that works with government, industry and the community to protect and improve the sustainable use of land and waterways in South East Queensland. The organisation monitors and reports on the condition of these waterways and provides capacity building for professionals and community groups. It advises on reforms to policy and planning, and provides education programs to motivate Queensland community members to value and protect South East Queensland waterways and the natural environment. Underpinning these activities are four strategic objectives:

1) Promote healthy land and water biodiversity 2) Innovate solutions to protect and restore our natural environment 3) Involve, inform and inspire our members 4) Keep a connected, engaged and motivated community

Each year Healthy Land and Water produces an annual assessment of the current environmental condition and level of social and economic benefit South East Queensland’s waterways provide to local communities of waterways. This 2018 Social Science Report provides the evidence contributing to the social component of the annual Report Card and informs policy and actions relating to the promotion and protection of waterways in South East Queensland.

2.0 Project Aims

The 2018 community research study aims to understand and measure the social benefits of waterways for South East Queenslanders across 18 catchment areas. The focus for the 2018 waterway engagement community survey is aligned with three key outcomes. First, to continue to strengthen the quality and depth of data for the Waterways Benefit Ratings (report card) calculations. Second, to extend understanding of the influences on waterway stewardship behaviours, and potential enablers or barriers to these activities, and finally, to continue to deepen the understanding of the relationship between waterway use and condition.

3.0 Research Questions and Model

The 2018 SEQ community waterways study is guided by a conceptual-based model and research questions focusing on the social indicators of waterways as engagement measures. Engagement is a multidimensional relational concept featuring psychological and behavioural attributes of connection, interaction, participation, and involvement, designed to achieve or elicit an outcome at individual, organisation, or social levels (Johnston, 2018). The overall research question guiding this study was ‘How does engagement influence the social benefits of waterways? For this study, engagement was operationalised through the overall social indicators of waterway use, satisfaction, and connection. Drawing from previous studies, empirical literature, and Healthy Land and Water research priorities, the study was guided by a research model and four key research questions:

RQ1: How does waterway experience influence satisfaction? RQ2: How do perceptions of useability and accessibility influence satisfaction? RQ3: What is the relationship between social benefits and stewardship? RQ4: How do perceptions of waterway condition affect intention to use?

Figure 1: Social Benefits of Waterways: Measurement Framework

3.1 Measurement Framework

Social benefit will be measured by four concepts with a total of eight constructs represented within this model (please see Section 7 for further explanation of these concepts):

Experience

Satisfaction measures how satisfied respondents are with their local waterways experience (use in or near).

Accessibility measures the perceptions of respondents about the accessibility of their local waterway.

Usability captures whether respondents feel that their local waterways are usable and don’t take much effort to use.

Awareness measures a respondent’s general knowledge of, familiarity with, and attentiveness to their local waterway

Appraisal (positive and negative) measures the respondents’ beliefs about a waterway’s condition (ie: pollution, litter, erosion and organism levels)

Personal benefits

Social value captures the value respondents get from using their local waterways with others such as friends or family.

Being Away captures a conceptual idea rather than a physical transformation. It emphasises that a location helps the respondent to relax, gives them a break from their routines and escape.

Fascination conceptualises a location which is thoroughly absorbing for the respondent. Examples can include fishing, bird watching or going for a walk.

Connection with nature and waterways

Nature relatedness measures how an individual’s connection to the natural world (environment).

Motivation occurs when motives for using waterways are fully in line with one’s personal values and needs.

Stewardship

Responsibility measured the attribution of responsibility for protecting the environment.

Behavioural intention measures behaviours that could be undertaken to protect local waterways.

Life stage demographics: offer important insights into enablers and drivers for action.

4.0 Ethical Considerations and Funding

This research reported was granted ethics approval by the Queensland University of Technology (QUT)

Human Ethics Committee (QUT approval number: 1500000402) in line with standard ethical guidelines and

the National Statement on Ethical Conduct in Human Research (Australian Government, 2007). Please see

Appendix B for Respondent Information Sheet and survey instrument. This study is part of a three year

social study (2016-2018) and is jointly funded by Healthy Land and Waters and QUT.

5.0 Method

5.1 Instrument

A survey instrument, reflecting the key concepts and constructs forming the research questions, was

developed from established scale items and modified for use. The construct map is provided in Section 7.

In addition, some historical questions were used to provide comparative data based on previous surveys

(2015/2016). Questions featured seven point Likert scale questions (1 = Strongly Disagree to 7 = Strongly

Agree range was used), open text boxes, and distance pins on maps. The survey was administered through

a 20-minute online survey hosted on QUT Key Survey.

5.2 Sampling and Procedure

Two sampling strategies were undertaken: A panel and a community survey. Both strategies targeted a

sample of adults (18+) living in 18 catchment areas in SEQ:

1. Panel (presented in the report as Panel Data): Data were collected via an online survey using panel

data (SSI or Social Science International) as a recruitment strategy (n=3231). The catchment and

postcode methodology originally refined in 2017, was used in this current survey. The refinements

undertaken in 2017 improved the postcode distribution accuracy through aligning specific suburbs

with catchments. Caution needs to be taken when interpreting specific catchment results with low

numbers. A soft launch was conducted with panel data on 1 May with n100 to check response

timing and dropout rates. The full launch was on 2 May 2018, following successful quality checks.

The survey was hosted on a QUT web-based survey (Key Survey) with the link distributed to

recruited panel members. The survey was closed out on 31 May 2018.

2. Community Survey (presented in the report as Social Media Data): Data were collected via an

online survey recruited through social media – specifically Healthy Land and Water Facebook,

shared and promoted links through Twitter and QUT newsletters. An incentive was offered as a

chance to win one of ten $100 gift cards. The recruitment campaign resulted in 555 respondents

completing the survey. Ten respondents were randomly drawn by QUT on 6 June 2018 by random

number generator matched to the respondent number. Winners were notified by Healthy Land and

Water.

5.3 Analysis

Data were analysed using the statistical packages SPSS (25). Quantitative analyses provided frequencies, mean statistics, correlations and regressions. Data was cleaned prior to analysis and the constructs were assessed for validity and reliability, 47 “straight liners” (people who select the same responses throughout a survey) were identified but this small amount was negligible and made not noticeable difference.

5.4 Respondents – Demographic profiles

A total of 3,786 surveys were completed. Of this 3,231 were obtained through a data panel, and 555

completions were made through social media. For analyses purposes, this number dropped slightly to

3,747, as 39 respondents were excluded from the analysis as

they either lived in areas outside of the SEQ catchment areas

under study or only filled out a small portion of the survey.

Of these 3,747 respondents, 60.5% were female, 39.0% male,

and 0.3% of respondents elected not to disclose their

gender. Figure 2 illustrates this mix. According to the ABS the

gender split in the catchment areas is 49.36% male, and

50.64% female. Having more females than males answer

online suveys is faily common.

More than 76% of respondents have lived in Queensland

more than 10 years. Just over 3.0% of respondents have lived

in Queensland for less than 1 year. The median age of respondents was 48 years old (M= 48.71, SD 16.74)

with the youngest being 18 and the oldest 89 years old. More than 70% of respondents held post-

secondary school qualifications.

5.4.1 Employment

Nearly 30% of panel respondents were in full time employment, with nearly 20% part-time, indicating that

50% of the sample had employment of some type. Just over 25% of respondents were a carer, student or

unemployed. Just over a quarter of the panel respondents (25.9%) identified as retired. Respondents in the

social media sample featured much higher full and part-time employment (65.4%) and lower carer,

student, or unemployed status (13.7%).

5.4.2 Industry

Respondents were asked what industry they currently work in, or recently worked in. The top three

industries in the data panel sample (excluding ‘Other’) were Retail Trade (12.4%), Health Care and Social

Assistance (10.6%), Education and Training (10.0%). For the Social Media sample the top three were:

Professional, Scientific and Technical Services (19.9%), Education and Training (15%), Health Care and Social

Assistance (7.1%). Comparing the survey data to ABS data shows some discrepancies, however, this is most

likely due to survey participants not being able to correctly identify the industry that they work in, as

evidenced by the large amount (more than 16%) who selected “Other” as an option.

5.4.3 Time in SEQ

Length of time living in SEQ suggests more familiarity with local and state-wide waterways. For each

catchment, the majority of residents had lived in their current locations for more than 10 years. The

average for residents living in the region for more than ten years was 71.2%, with Pumicestone having the

lowest amount at 58.1% and Redland having the highest value as 80.9%.

5.4.4 Household Income

Respondents were asked to provide an indication of their household income. Nearly 30% of respondents earned

between $50,000 and $100,000, while just over 30% (panel) earnt less than $50,000. Nearly 7% (panel) earned more

than $150,000 while 15% of the social media sample earned more than $150,000. Panel data generally aligns with ABS

reported statistics for these representative areas. 14.4%-18.8% of respondents elected not to disclose their income.

6.0 Catchment Areas

Respondents in Queensland postcodes spanning 18 SEQ waterway catchment areas were targeted with this research. Unique catchments represent localities where one catchment was assigned to a suburb; however, since some localities with more than one catchment exist, a dual catchment column is also presented. The totals represent the final number of catchments that people were assigned to; since some localities were assigned to more than 1 catchment the total number of assignments made increases the total sample size. See Appendix A for catchment allocated suburbs and associated postcodes.

7.0 Survey Constructs

The items in the survey were based on existing measures, but also included specific questions and

issues used historically by Healthy Waterways. A number of constructs or topic areas were identified

for the survey that had previously rated survey items (i.e. they have been tested in previous research

and found to have reliability and validity). Wherever possible we have used these items, adapted if

necessary to the specific context, to ensure reliability. Means and Standard Deviations for each

construct are summarised in Table 7.

The aim of each construct investigated is outlined in Section 8.0 with the results of each construct

including the average score across SEQ respondents and also the highest and the lowest scoring

catchment per construct. The tables including all the data for the individual catchments can be

found in Section 9.0.

Independent samples t-tests were used to determine if significant differences existed between the

Panel data and Social media data, with the percentage difference between mean scores being

reported. The final column indicates that the data is significantly different across the two samples.

All but one construct achieved a higher mean in the Social Media sample than the Panel Data

sample. This is most likely due to self-selection phenomenon whereby people with more interest in

the topic will select to respondent in the survey. Therefore, more positive or critical views are

present in the social media sample than in the data panel sample.

7.1 Validity and Reliability

To assess the validity and reliability of the constructs an exploratory factory analysis (EFA), Cronbach’s

alpha (α), and item-to-total correlation (ITC) tests were conducted. The table below details the steps

and options chosen for this analysis.

Test SPSS steps Thresholds

Cronbach’s Alpha, item-to-total correlation

Analyse Scale Reliability Analysis Add items Statistics Check Item, Scale, Scale if item delete Cont. OK

α ≥ 0.70 (or 0.60 in exploratory research) ITC > 0.30

KMO > 0.5 Bartlett’s test < .05 Factor loadings > .5

The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) Test for Sampling Adequacy and Bartlett’s test were used to assess the suitability for factor analysis, with the KMO cut-off value being 0.5 and the Bartlett’s test needing to be significant. Items with an item-to-total correlation below 0.30 (Field, 2009) were removed; items with a factor loading less than 0.50 were removed (Field, 2009). This research cautiously used the guidelines set out by Hair, Anderson, Tatham, and Black (1998), with 0.7 being the generally accepted lower limit for α, while it may decrease to 0.6 in exploratory research. A full list of steps and item results is available from the authors on request. As shown in the table below, all thresholds were met, and all Cronbach alpha scores were above the 0.7 threshold. Notably, the original construct of appraisal had both negative and positive items that formed one factor solution, our testing revealed a two-factor solution that split appraisal into two separate constructs, namely, positive appraisal and negative appraisal.

8.0 Results and Discussion

Results are presented by total sample in general section and by panel data only for individual

catchment level (Section 9.0). To begin, the results are presented and discussed regarding access,

usability and satisfaction toward the respondent’s local waterway. Following this the results

summarised in Table 8.0 relating to each construct are discussed.

Table 8.0: Summary of key constructs across total sample

Usability Usability measured whether they respondents thought that their local waterways were usable and did not take much effort to use. The 2018 average was 4.59 (SD 1.5). Noosa has the highest score at 5.55 (SD 1.23), Upper Brisbane reported the lowest score at 3.84 (SD 1.74). This overall score is higher than the 2017 average of 4.53 (SD 1.41). In 2017, those in Tallebudgera catchment thought their local waterways were the most usable (M 5.48, SD 1.3) whereas those respondents in Logan thought theirs were the least usable (M 4.01, SD 1.45).

Satisfaction Local Waterway Satisfaction measures how satisfied overall the respondents are with their experiences when using or visiting their local waterways. It looks at whether respondents find these to be good experiences and whether they truly enjoyed these experiences. The 2018 average was 4.55 (SD 1.53). Noosa scored highest on satisfaction with a score 5.61 (1.17). Bremer scored lowest on 3.62 (SD 1.56). This score in on par with last year, remaining almost unchanged. In 2017, respondents responded generally favourably to this (M 4.54, SD 1.42). 2017 results showed those in the Moreton bay and Islands Catchment scored the highest levels of satisfaction with a mean of (M 5.55, SD 1.19) with those in Lockyer being the least satisfied (M 4.02, SD 1.56).

Accessibility Accessibility explores whether the respondents feel they can access their local waterway easily. The 2018 mean was 5.06 (SD 1.62). Tallebudgera scored highest at 5.87 (SD 1.32). Bremer was lowest score at 4.31 (SD 1.69). This was higher than the 2017 period, where the average score across SEQ residents was 4.99 (SD 1.57), indicating that on the whole respondents feel that accessing their local waterways is straight forward. For 2017, those respondents in Moreton Bay and Islands Catchment felt that they had the best accessibility to their local waterway (M 5.89 SD 1.24) whereas those in Logan felt they had the lowest (M 4.45, SD 1.63).

Being Away Being Away involves a “conceptual rather than a physical transformation” (Kaplan, 1995, p. 173) whereby a being in a location helps the person to relax, gives them a break from their routines and escape. 2018 results were 4.72 (SD 1.7), with Noosa scoring the highest on 5.63 (SD 1.37), and Bremer scoring lowest on 3.93 (SD 1.83). In 2017, the mean was 4.58 (SD 1.66). Those respondents in the Moreton Bay and Island catchment recorded the highest on this construct (M 5.64, SD 1.33) while those in Albert scored the lowest (M 4.03, SD 1.85).

2018 Social Report - QUT

Fascination Fascination is conceptualised as a location which provides an interest which is thoroughly absorbing. Examples can include fishing, bird watching or going for a walk. This construct taps into the person’s awareness of interesting things to do at this location and that they want to spend more time on activities at this location. The 2018 average for all respondents was 4.5 (SD 1.58). Noosa scored highest at 5.58 (SD 1.15), lowest was Bremer at 3.63 (SD 1.64).

Social Value Social value measures the level of value respondents receive from using waterway with their friends and others known to them. Similar to findings in 2017, the 2018 respondents indicated they find using waterways more interesting when they are using them with friends or as part of a group. The overall sample indicated generally a high level of value in using waterways. In 2018, the overall mean was 4.49 (SD 1.52). Noosa scored highest at 5.18 (SD 1.27), while the lowest was Bremer 3.83 (SD 1.74).

Motivation Motivation occurs when motives for using waterways are fully in line with one’s personal values and needs. In 2018 there was an increase when compared to 2017, in that respondents demonstrated a connection with using waterways aligned with their personal values and needs, but there was a large variation across the catchments. The overall mean was 4.06 (SD 1.8). Noosa reported the highest levels of motivation (M 5.33, SD 1.52), while Bremer reported the lowest (M3.14, SD 1.69)

Nature Relatedness

Nature relatedness - This scale measured an individual’s connection to the natural world (environment). In 2018, the mean across all catchments was 5.29 (SD 1.41) indicating a strong connection with nature. This is also an increase when compared to last year’s overall mean. Stanley catchment again scored highest at 5.92 (SD 1.17) (when compared to 2017), while the lowest mean for nature relatedness was shared by Logan 5.06 (SD 1.47) and Lower Brisbane 5.06 (SD 1.44).

Awareness Awareness is resident’s general knowledge of, familiarity with, and attentiveness to their local waterway (Story & Forsyth, 2008). Awareness includes things such as paying attention to local waterways, being aware of environmental conditions of local waterways, knowing where local waterways being and end. This is new to the 2018 survey. Across all catchments, the Mean was 4.4 (SD 1.29) suggesting respondents felt they had a good level of knowledge and familiarity with their local waterway. Noosa reported the highest levels of awareness (M5.16, SD 1.04), while Logan catchment reported the lowest (M3.94, SD 1.26).

2018 Social Report - QUT

Positive Appraisal

Positive appraisal is the respondents’ beliefs about the degree to which their local waterway is free of disease-carrying organisms, clear and unpolluted, and they are satisfied with the quality of the water (Story & Forsyth, 2008). This construct was new to the 2018 survey. In 2018, the average across all catchments was 4.26 (SD 1.28) suggesting a fair level of appraisal by respondents. Noosa scored the highest (M4.57, SD 1.23), while Bremer scored the lowest (M3.12, SD 1.35)

Negative Appraisal

Negative appraisal is the respondents’ beliefs about the degree to which their local waterway is polluted, contains litters, and has erosion problems (Story & Forsyth, 2008). This construct was new to the 2018 survey. In 2018, the average across all catchments was 3.74 (SD 1.34) suggesting a general level of appraisal by respondents that their waterway is not polluted. Bremer was highest at 4.54 (SD 1.30), while Tallebudgera was lowest at 3.88 (SD 1.54)

Responsibility The responsibility scale measured residents’ feelings of personal responsibility for maintaining and protecting the local waterway, as well as their feelings of efficacy in dealing with pollution (Story & Forsyth, 2008). It included the following items: “It is my responsibility to protect my local waterways”, “There is a lot I can do to combat pollution in my local waterways”, “My efforts to clean up local waterways would make much of a difference”, and “One person can do much to prevent pollution in my local waterways”. This construct was new to the 2018 survey. Across the sample, the mean was 4.6 (SD 1.36). Tallebudgera reported the highest levels of personal responsibility 5.18 (SD 1.37), while the Logan catchment reported the lowest levels of personal responsibility 3.36 (SD 1.34)

Behavioural Intentions

Behavioural Intentions refers to behaviours that residents could perform to promote, or not promote, the overall quality of the waterways where they lived (Story & Forsyth, 2008). This scale included the following items: “I intend to monitor the condition of my local waterways”, “I intend to talk about the condition of my local waterways with my neighbours and others in my local community”, “I intend to make changes around my home to limit my impact on my local waterway”, “I intend to clean up portions of my local waterway (pick up litter, remove weeds, and so on)”, and “I intend to be more involved in my local environmental community group”. This construct was new to the 2018 survey. Overall across all samples, the overall mean was 3.64 (SD 1.46) indicating a generally low level of intention to take actions to protect the overall quality of waterways. However there was a wide SD suggesting wide variation across the sample. The highest level of intention was reported by Mid Brisbane 4.29 (SD 1.15), while the lowest was held by Upper Brisbane 3.17 (SD 1.60)

8.2.10 Behavioural Intentions

Behavioural Intentions refers to behaviours that residents could perform to promote, or not promote, the

overall quality of the waterways where they lived (Story & Forsyth, 2008). This scale included the following

items: “I intend to monitor the condition of my local waterways”, “I intend to talk about the condition of my

local waterways with my neighbours and others in my local community”, “I intend to make changes around my

home to limit my impact on my local waterway”, “I intend to clean up portions of my local waterway (pick up

litter, remove weeds, and so on)”, and “I intend to be more involved in my local environmental community

group”. This construct was new to the 2018 survey. Overall across all samples, the average/overall mean was

3.64 (SD 1.46) indicating a generally low level of intention to take actions to protect the overall quality of

waterways. However there was a wide SD suggesting wide variation across the sample. The highest level of

intention was reported by Mid Brisbane 4.29 (SD 1.15), while the lowest was held by Upper Brisbane 3.17 (SD

8.3 Waterway use and activities

Types of usage were captured across the total sample and by catchment. Respondents were asked ‘Thinking about the past 12 months, please indicate how often you used or visited a LOCAL WATERWAY (creek, river, beach, lake etc.), within 15 km of your home, for the activities indicated?’ Across the sample, swimming and recreational activities such as walking, cycling, running, and picnics and barbeques, remained the most popular activities on waterways, with fishing featuring more prominently in some catchments. Activities involving the use of craft on water, and those requiring sophisticated equipment– such as boating, sailing, water and jet-skiing, sailboarding and kayaking, and scuba diving – were undertaken less frequently.

8.3.1 Comparison – Local, SEQ, and National waterway use and

activities

Respondents were asked what activities, and where these activities were undertaken in the past 12 months – at local, SEQ, or national locations. For instance, 65.5% said yes to Picnics and BBQs on the waterways while 34.5% said no. Of the people who said yes, 40.8% said they did it at a local level, 21.9% at a SEQ level, and 7.2% at a national level. The next three columns labelled Local VS SEQ, Local VS National, and SEQ VS National, all test for statistical differences between each level in pairs, using a chi-square difference test. For example, the people indicated that they have picnics and BBQs at statistically different amounts between local and SEQ locations, and local and national locations, and SEQ and national locations. Local was the most frequently used location for picnics and BBQs, then SEQ, then the national level. Whereas, for scuba diving and snorkelling activities, there are statistical differences at the local vs SEQ and local vs National but SEQ vs national are not significantly different.

8.4 Responsibility and Important Issues

8.4.1 Responsibility

This question explored the concept of attribution of responsibility for protecting the environment. The question asked “To what extent are the following entities/groups responsible for protecting the environment. Local Government was found to be most responsible, while non-profit organisations the least responsible. Overall, the top five entities shared attribution of responsibility (>80%) by the total sample. Interestingly, “business” featured lower levels of attribution of responsibility than expected.

8.4.2 Important issues

This question asked respondents to rank from a list of 11 items and one other (to specify), the three most important social issues. The top three items included health, transport, and the cost of living. The environment was ranked 4th. The graph below shows the combined data sets.

Respondents who selected the “other” category (.87%) reported comments that could generally be categorised into one of the main options however usually the comments have a more specific focus, for instance “Housing affordability” was written even though that seems like a cost of living issues; similarly, ice addiction is mentioned a few times and this could be a crime/law and order issue or a health issue. Unique issues mentioned included ageing and older populations, governments, power prices, tourism, media, and rural population decline.

8.4.3 Environmental concerns

Respondents were also asked to rank the top three environmental concerns. Across the sample, litter pollution, climate change and concerns about the extinction of native flora and fauna were reported as the top three concerns, while loss of traditional owner heritage and soil erosion were of least concern. The graph below shows the combined data sets.

Respondents were also asked generally how concerned they were about environmental problems in SEQ. While few respondents reported none (not at all), more than 68% of the sample reported in the top two levels of concern (a great deal/a fair amount).

Testing conditions as predictors on perceptions of Satisfaction, Usage, and Accessibility.

Fish numbers may not be significant because it might only be important for people who fish, or the word “fish” might be too specific and a word that is broader such as “aquatic life” might be more appropriate. Water clarity is all statistically significant and positively related to satisfaction, usage and accessibility; this is the same for natural vegetation, and overall condition. This suggests that as satisfaction with water clarity, natural vegetation and overall conditions increase, so to do the outcomes of satisfaction, usage, and accessibility. As expected, pollution levels are negatively correlated with the three outcomes, but only statistically so for satisfaction and usage.

8.6 Correlations

8.6.1 Satisfaction and nature relatedness

Correlations between satisfaction and nature relatedness showed a strong significant relationship in all but two of the catchments however this relationship does differ between catchments. The overall sample suggests that people who feel that nature is important to them are satisfied overall with their local waterway. This implies that to keep the satisfaction levels up for those people using waterways, the importance of nature to their lives should be reinforced. By making this strong association, people are reminded of the importance of nature in their lives and therefore can make the connection with how using the waterways can contribute towards this. Pimpama-Coomera (.585) and Mooloolah (.575) showed the highest levels of correlation between nature relatedness and satisfaction, while Upper Brisbane (.291) and Mid Brisbane (.215) showed the lowest. It should be noted that the sample size was small for these catchments which may explain the result and the non-significance of these when compared to 2017.

8.6.2 Satisfaction and Use

Correlations between satisfaction and people’s use of waterways (frequency and type) showed a clear and significant relationship for all catchment areas. All catchments are significant and are very

high, with all but two being above 0.07 indicating very strong relationships (p < .05 = *, p <.01 = **). This suggests that South East Queensland waterways are able to satisfy a diverse range of users. Upper Brisbane catchment shows the highest amount of satisfaction to use relationship (0.932) while Stanley showed the lowest (0.671) however this level and significance indicates that those in the catchment still are satisfied with their use of their local waterways.

8.7 Awareness, Appraisal, Responsibility (AAR) Model

A step-wise regression was conducted examining the effect of Awareness, Positive and Negative Appraisal, and Responsibility on the outcome variable of Behavioural Intentions. First, responsibility on behavioural intention is examined, then positive and negative appraisal is added, and finally awareness is added. In Step 1, the model is showing that responsibility (without any controlling factors) is not significantly predictive of behavioural intentions (β = .282, p = 0.117) and has a low R squared (.049). R-Squared indicates the proportion of variance in the outcome variable that is shared by the predictor variable. The beta (β) value determines the strength of the relationship between a predictor and the outcome, and is used in interpretation when the p value is significant (p < 0.05). Step 2, uses the same variables for step 1 but adds positive and negative appraisal. This model is significant (ANOVA, p = 0.029) and shows a better R squared (.194) than the previous model. Positive appraisal (β = .391, p = 0.027) and Responsibility (β = .445, p = .015) significantly predict behavioural intention. While responsibility was not significant in model 1, now that appraisal is being taking into account responsibility predicts behavioural intentions. Model 2 also shows negative appraisal is not significantly related to behavioural outcomes (p = .141), suggesting that positive appraisal is more important than negative appraisal. In model 3, all of the variable are used in the model. Model 3 is statistically significant (ANOVA, p = .003), with an even more improved R squared (.356). Notably, responsibility becomes non-significant (p = .102), with negative appraisal also non-significant (p = .144). Positive appraisal significantly predicts behavioural intentions (β = .316, p = .048), as well as Awareness (β = .438, p = .009). Overall, the model shows that awareness of ‘a waterway’ is key to predicting behaviour intentions to improve local waterways. Interestingly, while positive appraisal significantly predicted behavioural outcomes, negative appraisal was not significant. This suggests that using techniques that try to motivate people to monitor or clean up their local waterway with a negative or threat appeal (“Look what happens if we do nothing”) may work much less effectively than a positively frame campaign (“Look what we can become/achieve”). Notably, responsibility seems to be important under certain circumstances. This predisposition may reflect underlying segments where certain groups of people have characteristics (employment/age/education) that predispose them (positively or negatively) to fall in this group (see groupings in next section). Importantly, this model does not use demographics which could changes the results.

8.8.4 – Actions and Donations

Two question examining the behavioural actions of people were asked, specifically:

I cover exposed soil on my property, and/or worksites

I report muddy water running off construction and building sites to my local council Question asking about donations include:

I would be willing to donate my time to improve my local environment

I would be willing to donate money to improve my local environment

I would be willing to collect information relating to my local waterways or the surrounding environment (e.g. water quality, wildlife, vegetation)

Results suggest that respondents were less likely to take actions to protect waterways (cover soil and prevent

run off) and tended to be less likely to donate money, their time, or take actions to collect information about

their local waterway. The graph below shows the combined data sets.

9. Limitations

While all effort has been made to mitigate or overcome the limitations in this study, they do still exist to some level. These include;

Data is collected through a panel survey and also through Facebook. Those respondents accessing the survey through the panel survey may show some level of survey fatigue as they complete a number of surveys for the data collection company. Those respondents accessing the survey through Facebook may be more involved in the topic as they accessed the survey through partner organisations. This may indicate bias in their results. Despite these limitations, we see no significant differences in the demographics from our samples and that of the Australian Bureau of Statistics demographics suggesting that the respondents are largely in line with the general population of South East Queensland.

Data is collected at one point in time annually. Although the data is collected longitudinally on an aggregate level there is no way of identifying the perceptions of the same respondents over time to see if these differ through different stages of their lives. Despite this, making comparisons at the catchment level over time does allow comparative data at the aggregate level, giving general trend data.

While survey data is useful for providing representative results, it would be good to get a deeper understanding on some key topics such as usage and perceptions of conditions. Therefore supplementing the quantitative data with qualitative interviews would allow Healthy Land and Water to drill further into key areas of concern for certain catchments.

10. Catchment Reporting

some catchment level reporting has been done in the main report (section 8), the following sections

11. Recommendations

The 2018 waterway engagement study investigated the role of waterways in the lives of

residents in SEQ, particularly how engagement influenced the overall social benefits of waterways.

For SEQ community members, the study explored the useability, satisfaction, accessibility and

awareness of local waterways. In addition, it explored the influence of condition on their views and

values of waterways. Similar to previous years’ findings (Johnston & Beatson, 2015; 2016; 2017),

respondents confirmed waterways as valuable and important to their lives. Respondents particularly

confirmed the importance of their local waterways, with the high levels of use in a range of

activities. While the results remained consistent across catchments, some indicators in useability,

accessibility and satisfaction declined when compared to 2015 and 2016. More research is needed to

understand this trend.

Based on the findings in this report, a number of recommendations are offered:

Motivating stewardship behaviours: The study suggested that to increase commitment and

motivate people to undertake behaviours to clean up or monitor a waterway, education, and

messaging should focus on positive factors (rather than negative) such as highlighting the collective

level benefits from individuals working together to create healthy waterway environments

The AAR analysis also indicated that awareness of ‘a waterway’ was key to predicting behaviour

intentions to improve local waterways. More effort should be made to highlight the minor

waterways that individuals may not be aware of in their catchment.

Environmental concerns: Respondents were primarily concerned with litter pollution as the

key environmental concern. This highlights the importance of local clean up events – either

organised by community groups or council. The other concerns controllable by local bodies

identified, were water pollution and water quality (4th concern), and deterioration and loss of places

of natural beauty (5th concern), and tree clearing (6th concern). These are key areas which are

influenced by council policy, and can be mitigated and improved by local government’s action. It is

recommended that these key areas be highlighted and addressed by local councils as a way to

respond to community concerns, and subsequently gain support or recognition for these actions.

Waterway protection: While results suggest that respondents were less likely to take

personal actions to protect waterways (cover soil and prevent run off) and tended to be less likely to

donate money, their time, or take actions to collect information about their local waterway, these

results may be due to respondents not understanding the significance of these actions for waterway

health. Education could highlight the relevance and importance of personal and individual action as

a way of contributing to waterway health and protection.

2018 Social Report - QUT

Responsibility: The study suggested that local (government) councils are perceived as being

primarily responsible for protecting the environment, followed by State Government and local

communities. This suggests that councils may wish to highlight their role in the local community and

the specific activities they are undertaking to improve the local waterway environment. This may

also help councils raise their profiles in the local areas. Further, the cluster analysis (8.8) identified a

number of groups with key characteristics that could be used as a foundation for audience

segmentation for campaigns that address responsibility and satisfaction. Further research and

resources may be required to implement these recommendations.

In this survey we would like you to think about waterways. First some definitions:

A Waterway: is a passage for water or a body of water, including all types of permanent and short term creeks, rivers, wetlands and bays.

A waterway includes all estuaries, foreshores, coastal and marine waters. Waterways may be a freshwater or saltwater creek or river, a lakeor dam, a bay, lagoon or canal, or a surf beach.

Local waterways: When we talk about local waterways, we mean waterways that are within 15 kilometres of your home.

South East Queensland Waterways: When we talk about SEQ Waterways, we mean any waterway located in the South East Queenslandregion (from Noosa in the North, to Gold Coast in the South, and West to Toowoomba)

Visiting or using waterways: When we talk about visiting or using these waterways, we mean taking part in activities in, or on, the watersuch as boating or swimming. We also mean taking part in activities alongside these waterways such as walking, camping or having a picnic.

A note about question repetition: Some questions appear very similar. This is because we need to measure some concepts a number of times in slightly different ways. We appreciate your cooperation

when completing these questions.
