Description

The current study sought to determine if community based gardening projects would reduce perceptions of the need to use communication devices--cell phones or text messaging--and increase the likelihood of participating in future volunteer projects. Results strongly support the predictions in that the experimental group post-test mean score of the need and importance of community service work was significantly higher (46.33) than the control group (15.33), t (8) = -32.88, p .001. Additionally, the post-data suggests that the experimental group's mean score of perceived needs for electronic devices (i.e., cell phones, MP3 players, and headset radios) and technology (1423) was significantly lower than the control group's mean scare (34.00), t (8) = 5.73, p .05.
