Residents\u27 Perceptions And Attitudes Towards Native American Gaming (NAG) In Kansas: Demographics, Policies & Future Development

This study applies a tourism model developed by Perdue, Long, and Allen ( 1990) to investigate residents\u27 perceptions of Native American Gambling in Kansas. A survey was administered to 1038 households, on a population proportionate basis, in Brown County (35 .65% ), Doniphan County (25.30% ), and Jackson County (39.05% ). Results indicated several relationships among perceived impacts of NAG development, including the respondent\u27s gender, gaming trips, age, employment status, and income level. Additionally, this study identified an association or dependence between the resident\u27s perceived future of the community and support for additional NAG development, support for restrictive NAG development policies, and support for additional taxes
