Zusammenfassung:Developed 3 Thurstone-type affective attitude scales in order to assess public reaction to high contact uses of reclaimed waste water. The scales were evaluated by field survey research conducted in northern and southern California. Test-retest reliability coefficients ranged from .82-.79, and scale results met expectations regarding the influence of degree of contact and environment upon attitudes toward waste water reuse. The scales developed should be useful in future applied and theoretical research involving waste water reclamation.
