A Novel Anti-Environmental Forest Experience Scale to Predict Preferred Pleasantness Associated with Forest Environments

Abstract: In this study, a method for predicting the preferred pleasantness induced by different forest environments, represented by virtual photographs, was proposed and evaluated using a novel Anti-Environmental Forest Experience Scale psychometric test. The evaluation questionnaire contained twenty-one items divided into four different subscales. The factor structure was assessed in two separate samples collected online (sample 1: n = 254, sample 2: n = 280). The internal validity of the four subscales was confirmed … Show more

“…However, they provide little evidence on such interactions. Some studies were conducted to explore the effects of virtual reality natural scenic videos on stress detection [43] and reduction [44], [45], with additional tasks, that is, performing digits calculations [45], used to induce stress. Others presented more specific stressful scenarios using VRET, such as public speech anxiety [18], dental phobias in adults [46] and fear of heights [47], which were achievements of the immersion perceived from experiencing videos, images, and sounds in a VR world.…”

“…Several infectious diseases are associated with forests, such as the Puumala virus (PUUV) and malaria, and forests can potentially expose people to disasters such as fires and floods [20]. Certain scholars have developed the Anti-Environmental Forest Experience Scale (AEFES) [21] to address the potential negative effects of real forests. Therefore, seeking complementary programs for exposing the public to nature to effectively improve physical and mental health has become an urgent issue.…”
