Repertory grid technique was used to test the claim that sense of
landscape naturalness is socially constructed and culturally relative,
and the reverse claim that sense of landscape naturalness is
underlain by universals of human thought. Sample groups represented
three cultures at extremes along a continuum of ideology concerning
human relations with nature: Euro-Canadian at one end, Vuntut
Gwich’in and north Baffin Inuit at the other.
