为了探讨不同类型的森林环境对森林疗法的影响，本研究重点关注森林休息环境。将在北京实地研究中发现的七个具有代表性的森林休息环境作为自变量，并通过虚拟现实（VR）视频向受试者展示。以压力水平为因变量，以血压、心率、唾液淀粉酶和情绪状态简况（BPOMS）为生理和心理指标。实验中采用了受试者间设计。总共 96 名受试者被随机分配到每种环境类型，并且只观察一种类型的森林休息环境。通过相关样本t检验和单因素方差分析，对指标的前后数据进行分析。研究发现，七种不同类型的森林休息环境均能在一定程度上产生缓解压力的效果。不同类型的森林休息环境对于缓解压力有不同的效果。最自然的环境对于缓解压力并没有最显着的效果。水景对于缓解压力有积极的作用。本研究结论有利于更好地利用森林环境开展森林治疗服务。
To explore the effects of different types of forest environments for forest therapy, this study focused on forest resting environments. Seven representative forest resting environments found in field research in Beijing were used as independent variables and were shown to subjects by a virtual reality (VR) video. Stress level was used as the dependent variable, and blood pressure, heart rate, salivary amylase, and the Brief Profile of Mood States (BPOMS) were used as physiological and psychological indicators. A between-subjects design was used in the experiment. A total of 96 subjects were randomly assigned to each environment type, and only one type of forest resting environment was observed. Through the relevant sample t-test and one-way analysis of variance, the pre- and post-test data of the indicators were analyzed. This study found that all the seven different types of forest resting environments can produce stress relief effects to some extent. Different types of forest resting environments have different effects on relieving stress. The most natural environment does not have the most significant effect on stress relief. A water landscape has a positive effect on the relief of stress. The conclusions of this study are conducive to the better use of the forest environment for forest therapy services.
