Abstract
This research studies the factors influencing the adoption of high efficiency kilns by people in the northeastern region of Thailand and the level of such adoption. Data was collected by questionnaires and interviews with 12 people in Ubonratchathani, 160 in Surin, 100 in Nakornratchasima and 36 in Khonkaen who have, and have not, used high efficiency kilns, totaling to 308 cases. The data were then processed using SPSS for Windows application software, and summarized in the form of describing the characteristics, quantities, frequencies and data distribution. The statistical values used are percentage, average, arithmetic average and standard deviation. The relationship between 1 independent variable (group measurement level) and other dependent variable (range measurement level) was used analyze the correlation coefficient. The difference between the average values of the two groups of population was analyzed using statistical method for analyzing the difference of two such different groups. The study indicates that the samples had adoption of high efficiency kilns at low level and at medium level. Most samples had problems and suggestions regarding the adoption of high efficiency kilns Those included: unavailability of personal budget for buying kiln installation equipment, public relation about the benefits in various aspects of the kiln preferred, providing knowledgeable entities to teach them how to use the equipment, as well as training and demonstration, subsidies from governmental entities, making the kiln bigger and public relations through public systems. The research indicates the occupation, knowledge and attitude toward the use of the kiln were influential in the adoption of high efficiency kilns, whilst such factors as household size, annual net household income, and receipt of energy planning information were found to have nothing to do with the adoption of high efficiency kilns. This study reflects the need of continual public relation about high efficiency kilns for ongoing adoption and use by in the future.
