Abstract People who make habitual use of an emotion regulation strategy such as cognitive reappraisal may be more sensitive to the cues coming from a surrounding natural environment and, thus, get benefits virtual nature exposure enhanced subjective vitality. However, no previous study investigated moderating role in relationship between different types environments (a national park, lacustrine environment, and arctic vs. urban environment) We designed between-subject design (four...

Despite the well-established evidence supporting restorative potential of nature exposure, neurophysiological underpinnings cognitive/emotional effect are not yet fully understood. The main purpose current study was to investigate association between exposure and electroencephalography (EEG) functional connectivity in distress network.Fifty-three individuals (11 men 42 women; mean age 21.38 ± 1.54 years) were randomly assigned two groups: (i) a green group (ii) gray group.

Previous studies have found a positive relationship between binding moral foundations and negative inter-group attitudes. Nevertheless, some shown that, under specific conditions, can also lead to outcomes, particularly within the intra-group context. In this research, we hypothesize that when people perceive in-group members violate norms, individuals with stronger may exhibit greater preference for choices in hypothetical dilemmas. This hypothesis was confirmed Study 1 (N = 184) replicated...

Previous studies highlighted that exposure virtual environments leads restorativeness, which in turn is related several positive psychological outcomes. However, the mechanisms lead restorativeness are still unclear. The main aim this study was investigate mediating role sense presence relationship between and restorativeness. We conducted a with 2 × between-subjects design....
