Procedure from a recent peer-reviewed implementation

Steps below were extracted from the most recent peer-reviewed implementation of this protocol in the corpus — Do socio-cultural traits and other demographics affect outdoor recreation constraints? The case for Mesa County, Colorado (2018), Journal of Kinesiology & Wellness. Implementations in other papers (listed below) may differ.

1. Survey distribution and data collection
   Staff members from Mesa County Health Department visited various public facilities including governmental agencies (schools, workforce centers) and community groups (churches, social organizations) throughout Mesa County, Colorado to collect survey data both online and in-person
   Quantities: 580 complete and usable surveys from 677 total surveys completed (85.7% completion rate), with 431 (63%) submitted onlineDuration: October 2015 through July 2016Conditions: Surveys conducted at public facilities and community organizations throughout Mesa County
   Equipment: online survey platform, in-person paper surveys
2. Demographic sampling strategy
   Lower-income residents were specifically targeted to have a sample size that reflected the true demographics of Mesa County, Colorado. Survey was made available in both English and Spanish to ensure adequate response rate for all area residents
   Quantities: Final sample: 82.76% White, 13.97% Latino, 0.52% Black/African American, 1.21% American Indian/Alaska Native, 0.69% Asian, 0.86% OtherDuration: Throughout the data collection periodConditions: Targeted sampling to match Mesa County Census demographics
   Equipment: English survey version, Spanish survey version
3. Constraint assessment using ordinal response scales
   Ten specific constraints to leisure were analyzed using response categories of 'Strongly Disagree,' 'Disagree,' 'Neutral,' 'Agree,' and 'Strongly Agree.' For time, cost, transportation, and location constraints, slightly different response variables were used: 'No Influence,' 'Minor Influence,' 'Some Influence,' 'A Lot of Influence,' and 'Very Strong Influence.'
   Quantities: 10 different constraints measured: nervous, risks, technology, time, cost, transportation, location, awareness, culture, language
