Abstract
This study analyzes consensus-building efforts in environmental review. It provides evidence of the effectiveness of consensus building by assessing changes in participants' perceptions before and after their involvement in a stakeholder advisory panel. In contrast to qualitative case study investigations of consensus building, this study uses quantitative analysis based on a quasi-experimental research design.
