能够远离日常的压力和要求,即使离家很近,只有几分钟,对幸福来说也很重要。在新冠肺炎封锁期间,人们的逃生能力发生了显著变化。前往附近自然景点的游客增加是有据可查的。关于人们为了逃离而去的其他类型的地方,人们知之甚少。英国在2020年进行了一项在线调查(N=850),调查了人们在大流行期间去过哪些地方,他们在这些地方做了什么,地点和活动选择彼此之间以及与人口变量之间的关系,以及在这些访问期间回忆起的享乐和幸福。参与者参观了一系列丰富的地方,并参与了各种活动,以支持他们的享乐和幸福需求。回答被归类为四种类型的活动(在家中、在家中、远离家在户外和离开家在室内)和七种活动类型(认知、散步、自然参与、社交活动、使用技术、放松和锻炼)。地点和活动的选择是紧密相连的。户外活动对身体健康最有益(也是最常见的),特别是当它涉及到与大自然的密切接触(观鸟、园艺)或锻炼时。呆在室内、接触科技(电脑、电视)的益处最小,而在那些没有学位或工作、生活在城市地区、认同为男性的人中,这种情况更常见。研究结果表明,了解场所-活动相互作用的重要性,以支持从出游场所获得的幸福感。
Being able to get away from everyday stressors and demands, even if close to home and just for a few minutes, is important for wellbeing. During the Covid-19 lockdown periods, people’s ability to get away changed significantly. An increase in visits to nearby natural places is well documented. Little is known about other types of places people visited to get away. An online UK survey was conducted in 2020 (N= 850) investigating what places people visited to get away during the pandemic, what they did in those places, how place and activity choices were related to each other and to demographic variables, and to recalled hedonic and eudaimonic wellbeing during those visits. Participants visited a rich array of places and engaged in a variety of activities that supported their hedonic and eudaimonic wellbeing needs. Responses were grouped into four types of places (at home outdoors, at home indoors, away from home outdoors, and away from home indoors) and seven activity types (cognitive, walks, nature engagement, social activities, technology use, relaxing, and exercise). Place and activity choices were strongly linked. Visiting outdoor places was most beneficial for wellbeing (and most common), especially when it involved mindful engagement with nature (bird watching, gardening) or exercise. Staying indoors, engaging with technologies (computers, television) was least beneficial and more common among those with no degree or job, living in urban areas, and identifying as male. The findings demonstrate the importance of understanding place-activity interactions to support the wellbeing benefits derived from visits to places to get away.
