A questionnaire was directed to the local population living in the vicinity of the forest areas, in order to collect socio-economic information about the study area. The descriptive analytical method was adopted. The statistical analysis program (SPSS) (19) was used to calculate the studied correlations, the Chi-square test, the coupling coefficient (PHI), and the T test for independent samples. and two way ANOVA analysis of variance test. It was found that the sex of the population is related to the process of forest encroachment, as the value of the coupling coefficient (PHI) was 0.609, at the level of significance (Sig) 0.0001. The chi-square value of the relationship between the level of education and forest encroachment was 11.262, with a degree of freedom of 3 and a significant level of 0.01, which is smaller than 0.05, so there is an effect of education level on forest trespassing<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><strong>Key words<\/strong>: Forests, \u00a0fires, encroachment, \u00a0chi-square, coupling coefficient, Lattakia<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 17px;\">Full paper in Arabic: <a href=\"http:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/wp-content\/uploads\/v11n2p3.pdf\">pdf<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Urwah Suleiman(1)* (1).
