Abstract | As part of research to develop an approach to improving nature connectedness the ‘three good things’ intervention was revised to focus on nature. Participants (n=35) noted three good things in nature, or three good things (n=33) or three factual things (n=27) each day for five days. As planned the nature intervention group showed sustained and significant increases in nature connectedness compared to the other groups. However, the three good things group did not replicate previous results in showing positive well-being outcomes, indeed at two months there was a significant increase in perceived stress and the three good things group was the only group not to show improvements in psychological health. |
