Abstract
This study attempted to explore the underlying dimensions that affect the environmental perception among users towards Tasek Bera wetland area. In line with that the study provided the surface responses and demands by users subject to the need of efficient resource management and development. The exploratory factor analysis (EFA) has been applied to identify the dimensions that can really affect the environmental perception towards this wetland area. The study found that environmental perception among the users can be influenced by two from five dimensional structures namely agricultural activities and society benefit and plus the compliance items to measure environmental perception itself. It also reveals the necessities to further develop and manage the wetland area in sustainable manner. Further research should be considered to gather more information on environmental perception dimensions in the context of Malaysian users. Those two dimensions of environmental perception that represent a valid instrument to measure the environmental perception should be referred by the resource managers of Tasek Bera wetland area in managing the richness of biodiversity efficiently. This research is important in line with the increasing environmental concern among Malaysians and the excessive deterioration of natural resources in Tasek Bera wetland area.
