本研究旨在探讨与熟悉对象的礼貌互动对亲环境行为和幸福感的影响。我们探讨了与日常物品，如笔和眼镜的初步研究（N = 64）的互动过程，并揭示了两个方面，定义这些互动，即积极关心的对象和意识的学习互动（N = 687;研究1）。人们通过与特定对象的互动越关心和学习，他们就越能感知到与它的联系（N = 195;研究2）。此外，照顾和学习熟悉的物体促进了各种环境意识的行为，并有助于个人的福祉（研究3; N = 600）。通过这种方式，我们讨论了与日常物品的相互作用之间的关系，这些相互作用的方面，以及这些相互作用对个人对更广泛环境的看法的影响。
The purpose of this study was to clarify the influence of courteous interaction with familiar objects on pro-environmental behavior and well-being. We explored the process of interaction with everyday objects, such as pens and glasses in a preliminary study (N = 64), and to reveal two aspects that define these interactions, namely active care for objects and awareness of learning from the interaction (N = 687; Study 1). The more people cared for and learned through their interactions with a particular object, the more they perceived a connectedness to it (N = 195; Study 2). Furthermore, caring for and learning with familiar objects promoted various environmentally conscious behaviors and contributed to individual well-being (Study 3; N = 600). In this way, we discussed the relationship between interaction with everyday objects, the aspects of these interactions, and the influence of these interactions on an individual’s perspective toward the wider environment.
