Popis: This brief illustrates an innovative tool that enables researchers to elicit culturally relevant indicators, many of which are non-monetary and non-material. But it also shows how qualitative parameters can be quantified for evaluative and comparative purposes. The analysis of quantified data makes it possible to unveil and reflect underlying patterns of intracultural diversity in environmental assessments.
