积极的自然体验与儿童的环境行为有关。这种联系的原因仍然不明。一种可能性是,孩子们的行为更符合生态环境,因为他们从大自然中获得了好处。在本研究中,我们着眼于自然界中的积极经验,特别是恢复,作为一个激励因素,提高儿童的亲环境行为。儿童(N = 832)评价他们的校园在恢复方面,并报告他们的亲环境行为的频率,以及他们的环境态度。感知恢复预测37%的方差在报告的亲环境行为。此外,这种关系完全由环境态度介导。此外,迷恋,恢复的一个组成部分,是亲环境行为的唯一直接预测因子。
Positive experiences in nature relate to children's environmental behaviors. The reasons for this link remain unknown. One possibility is that children behave more ecologically because they obtain benefits from spending time in nature. In the present study, we looked at positive experiences in nature, specifically restoration, as a motivational factor enhancing children's proenvironmental behavior. Children (N = 832) rated their school yards in terms of restoration and reported their frequency of proenvironmental behaviors as well as their environmental attitudes. Perceived restoration predicted 37% of the variance in reported proenvironmental behavior. Moreover, this relationship was completely mediated by environmental attitudes. In addition, fascination, a component of restoration, was the only direct predictor of proenvironmental behavior.
