En el Refugio Nacional de Vida Silvestre Gandoca-Manzanillo, Costa Rica, se creó en 1986 un programa para la protección y conservación de la población anidadora de tortugas marinas. Esta evaluación buscaba identificar los aspectos que predisponen a la población a actuar de una forma determinada utilizando el modelo metodológico denominado teoría de facetas; este modelo parte de una frase mapa que enmarca la hipótesis, y con la cual se elaboró el cuestionario de evaluación que se aplicó a 106 habitantes de la comunidad de Gandoca, lo que corresponde al 40% del total de pobladores según el Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Censos (2000). En general, los resultados mostraron que la actitud de la población de Gandoca hacia el uso que se le debe dar a las tortugas marinas se basa en el elemento emocional, donde el turismo tiene gran aceptación, y donde existe en limitada medida la responsabilidad de las accioneshacia el objeto de la actitud.
In the Gandoca National Wildlife Refuge-Manzanillo, a protection and conservation program of sea turtles population was created in 1986. Up to that time, the change in disposition of the community towards the extractive and non extractive use of sea turtles had not been verified. This evaluation looked to identify the different aspects that predispose the community to act in a determined way, making use of a methodological model denominated facet theory; this model starts from a sentence map that include the hypothesis and which was used to elaborate the evaluation questionnaire applied to the 106 citizens of the community of Gandoca, that correspond to 40% of the total of the population according to the National Institute of Statistics and Census (2000). In general the results show that the attitude of the Gandoca population towards the use that should be given to the sea turtles is based in the emotional element where the tourism has great acceptance rate and where the responsibility of the actions towards the object of the attitude exists but it is not elevated.
