Abstract

A series of interviews were conducted during the summer of 2015 by a team led by Courtney Flint, working for Utah State University, funded by the iUTAH water project.

The purpose of the interviews was to get a general idea of public views and opinions of issues surrounding water.

The participants were asked a series of questions in a semi-structured conversational style. These conversations were recorded and then analyzed.

The interviews were conducted at various parks in Logan and Salt Lake City. They were selected via a public intercept method, where the interviewers selected park visitors at random and approached them to do interviews.

Afterwards, the interviewees filled out a short form with demographic information and consent to release. Demographic information is not being released with this dataset due to privacy issues.

******GENERAL******
A series of interviews were conducted during the summer of 2015 by a team led by Courtney Flint, working for Utah State University, funded by the iUTAH water project.

The interviews themselves were conducted by inexperienced students, with the secondary purpose of providing an educational experience. 

The purpose of the interviews was to get a general idea of public views and opinions of issues surrounding water.

The participants were asked a series of questions in a semi-structured conversational style. These conversations were recorded and then analyzed.

******INTERVIEWS******
The interviews were conducted at various parks in Logan and Salt Lake City ("interviews meta.csv" contains list of all locations used). They were selected via a public intercept method, where the interviewers selected  park visitors at random and approached them to do interviews.

Afterwards, the interviewees filled out a short form with demographic information and consent to release. Demographic information is not being released with this dataset due to privacy issues.

Interviews with lead number of 1-3 took place in Logan, and 4-6 took place in SLC.

The lead number also identifies the interviewers, ie. 1 and 4 represented one interviewer, 2 and 5 represented another.

The second number indicates language, 0 for English, 5 for Spanish.

The remaining numbers are sequential, indicating the order they occured in.

Some interviews (1009) don't have recordings due to technical issues. In this case, the interviewer took notes separately. These notes are included in pdf form.

SPANISH INTERVIEWS NOTE: 3 interviews were conducted in Spanish, but due to issues with procedure, they cannot be shared. Contact the PI for more information.

RECORDINGS: Though the interviews were recorded, they could not be shared due to technical limitations.

TRANSCRIPTS: The transcripts have been trimmed for brevity, privacy, and clarity. Editor notes are /italicized/ and [bracketed] to indicate that they were not part of the original interview.
