人们依靠运作良好的生态系统提供支撑人类健康和福祉的关键服务。因此，生物多样性的丧失对人类产生了深远的负面影响。人类与生物多样性的相互作用可以带来个人层面的福祉收益，当在人群中扩大规模时，相当于节省大量的医疗成本。然而，关于哪些物种和/或特征（例如颜色，声音和气味）引起幸福反应的关键问题仍然存在。影响幸福感的特征可以被认为是“效果”特征。利用社区生态学的技术，我们分析了一个由人们表达的物种效应特征数据库，以确定那些产生不同类型的福祉（身体，情感，认知，社会，精神和“全球”福祉，后者类似于“全人健康”）。效应性状对幸福感有显著的积极影响，受每个物种的身份和分类学王国的影响。不同的效应特质组合会带来不同类型的幸福感。然而，性状不能被认为是独立的物种，因为多个性状可以支持一个单一的物种。事实上，我们已经发现，来自整个生态群落的许多效应特征可以引发多种类型的福祉，说明了生物多样性经验的复杂性。我们的实证研究方法有助于实现生物多样性保护和基于自然的公共卫生干预措施的跨学科思维，更深入地了解生物多样性与人类福祉之间的联系，有助于设计基于自然的公共卫生干预措施。这项研究分析了一个物种效应特征（颜色，声音和气味）的数据库，以及它们产生的各种幸福反应。
People rely on well-functioning ecosystems to provide critical services that underpin human health and well-being. Consequently, biodiversity loss has profound negative implications for humanity. Human-biodiversity interactions can deliver individual-level well-being gains, equating to substantial healthcare cost savings when scaled up across populations. However, critical questions remain about which species and/or traits (for example, colours, sounds and smells) elicit well-being responses. The traits that influence well-being can be considered 'effect' traits. Using techniques from community ecology, we have analysed a database of species' effect traits articulated by people to identify those that generate different types of well-being (physical, emotional, cognitive, social, spiritual and 'global' well-being, the latter being akin to 'whole-person health'). Effect traits have a predominately positive impact on well-being, influenced by the identity and taxonomic kingdom of each species. Different sets of effect traits deliver different types of well-being. However, traits cannot be considered independently of species because multiple traits can be supported by a single species. Indeed, we have found that numerous effect traits from across the ecological community can elicit multiple types of well-being, illustrating the complexity of biodiversity experiences. Our empirical approach can help to implement interdisciplinary thinking for biodiversity conservation and nature-based public health interventions designed to support human well-being.A more in-depth understanding of the link between biodiversity and human well-being can help the design of nature-based public health interventions. This study analyses a database of species' effect traits (colours, sounds and smells) and the diverse well-being responses that they generate.
