Naturens påverkan på självupplevt välmående
(2023) PSYK11 20222Department of Psychology
- Abstract
- Increased urbanization means the modern citizen spends less time in natural green spaces. Recent scientific research shows that being in nature can have positive cognitive, physiological and emotional benefits. The study looks at both if the respondents perceive positive effects when they spend time in nature, and how the respondents perceived effects towards being in nature affects their intention to spend time in nature. The study looks at a topic that has been heavily studied previously. It aims to contribute to further research by analyzing the topic using the theory of planned behavior. Theory of planned behavior builds on the idea that an individual's tendencies to perform a certain behavior comes down to three aspects: perceived... (More)

The study looks at both if the respondents perceive positive effects when they spend time in nature, and how the respondents perceived effects towards being in nature affects their intention to spend time in nature. The study looks at a topic that has been heavily studied previously. It aims to contribute to further research by analyzing the topic using the theory of planned behavior. Theory of planned behavior builds on the idea that an individual's tendencies to perform a certain behavior comes down to three aspects: perceived control, subjective norms and attitude. Only the attitude (perceived effects) aspect of the theory is being analyzed by breaking it down into six subcategories. It is a survey with 28 questions (n=80) and the participants have been found through convenience selection. The data is analyzed using Jamovi’s tools for correlation. The results show that the respondents perceive positive effects of spending time in nature. Further, a small correlation (between attitude and intention and behavior towards being in nature) is found. Even if the correlation to intention is not high, the results do show high means on the perceived effects of nature interventions. (Less)
- Abstract (Swedish)
- I dagens urbaniserade samhälle så spenderar allt fler mindre och mindre tid i naturen. Aktuell forskning visar att det kan ha positiva kognitiva, fysiologiska och emotionella effekter att vistas i naturen. Studien undersöker både om deltagarna uppfattar positiva effekter när de spenderar tid i naturen, och hur deltagarnas upplevda effekter kring att befinna sig i naturen påverkar deras intention att spendera tid i naturen. Studien undersöker ett område som har forskats en hel del på innan. Den nya ansatsen som tas är att analysen utförs utifrån theory of planned behavior. Theory of planned behavior utgår från att en individs tendens att utföra ett beteende är oberoende av tre faktorer; kontroll, social norm och attityd. Denna studien... (More)
- I dagens urbaniserade samhälle så spenderar allt fler mindre och mindre tid i naturen.

Studien undersöker både om deltagarna uppfattar positiva effekter när de spenderar tid i naturen, och hur deltagarnas upplevda effekter kring att befinna sig i naturen påverkar deras intention att spendera tid i naturen. Studien undersöker ett område som har forskats en hel del på innan. Den nya ansatsen som tas är att analysen utförs utifrån theory of planned behavior. Theory of planned behavior utgår från att en individs tendens att utföra ett beteende är oberoende av tre faktorer; kontroll, social norm och attityd. Denna studien fokuserar endast på faktorn attityd, där sex stycken underliggande upplevda effekter har analyserats. Vi har använt oss av en enkätstudie (n=80) med bekvämlighetsurval. Datan är analyserad i Jamovi med hjälp av en korrelationsmatris. Resultatet visar att deltagarna upplever positiva effekter av att spendera tid i naturen. Vidare så hittades en svag korrelation mellan upplevda effekter till naturvistelser och intention och beteende. Även om korrelationen till intentionen inte är stark så visar studien även väldigt höga medelvärden på upplevda effekter av naturvistelser. (Less)
