“…Forest healing programs for subjects visiting the forest require a needs analysis according to the frequency of forest visits and a preference analysis according to the level of stress (Lee and Kim, 2011). A forest healing program that meets the characteristics and therapeutic goals must be developed depending on the subjects (Kim et al, 2014a). For the analysis of needs and preferences of the subjects, it is necessary to determine the theme, therapy, and accurate subject information (Kim, 2016b), and to develop a differentiated and customized program based on the disease through analysis of activities (Son et al, 2012).…”

Background and objective: Cancer is the number one cause of death in Korea, and it affects any part of the body regardless of gender and age. Forest healing is a treatment that maximizes the effect of treatment and improves the quality of life. This study aims to provide basic data for the development and implementation of differentiated forest healing programs for cancer patients based on the survey on their interest and needs for the programs. Methods: The subjects were those diagnosed with cancer from October 2018 to April 2019, and this study used 144 copies of the questionnaire retrieved. The sample size of this study (n = 144) was the appropriate size required by G-Power, and the collected responses were analyzed using SPSS 25.0. Results: In the frequency analysis on the interest in forest healing, 79.2% of the subjects had no experience participating in forest healing, but 87% were aware of it, and 82.6% showed the intention to participate in forest healing programs. This indicates that even though not many of them have experience participating in forest healing, they showed high interest and needs for participation. They preferred to participate in spring (29.9%) and fall (27.8%), in programs carried out for 1.5-2 hours in the morning on weekdays. Conclusion: This study has implications for the analysis on forest healing needs of cancer patients, and it is necessary to plan, develop, and implement differentiated forest healing programs that meet the needs of the cancer patients depending on their characteristics. There is also a need to plan forest healing program that can promote both psychological stability and physical health of cancer patients and verify and evaluate their effects based on specialized training of forest healing instructors.

Forest visiting frequency level is likely to indirectly affect the preferences and needs of the program. The forest visiting frequency degree is an important factor which can affect the development and conduct of the program. Therefore, forest needs analysis was conducted for the development of forest therapy program in accordance with the frequency of visits. First, after examining the frequency of forest visits degree according to demographic characteristics, the group of 217 people visiting the forest at least once a week or a month was classified as a high-frequency group. The group of 403 people visiting the forest at least once a quarter or a year and almost no visit was classified as a low-frequency group. The need difference according to the frequency of visits was analyzed through descriptive statistics analysis, frequency analysis, crosstabs by use of SPSS 21.0 program. The most important factors of Implementation period, season, paid the participation fee made differences depending on the frequency of visit. This study, as an exploratory research, making us understand the needs related to forest healing program for the forest visit groups of high and low frequencies, will be an important basis for the development and operation of forest therapy program.

“…Ha (2014) pointed out that forest therapy programs need to reflect the characteristics and needs of participants. The needs or preference of participants in forest therapy programs have been analyzed in several earlier studies including an analysis of needs for the development of forest therapy programs (Kim, 2015), an analysis of preference of general adults on forest therapy programs (Kim et al, 2014a), an analysis of needs for the development of forest therapy programs utilizing urban forests (Park, 2018), and an analysis of needs for forest therapy programs depending on the level of stress (Kim et al, 2014b). However, there is almost no study on forest therapy programs for subfertile women or those related to subfertility or the effects of forest therapy.…”

This study aimed to analyze the preference of subfertile women for forest therapy programs depending on their emotional characteristics, and to provide basic data for the development of forest therapy programs in order to promote the mental health of subfertile women. Among the surveyed emotional characteristics of subfertile women, the level of emotions including pressure to become pregnant, impatience and frustration were high, while that of emotions including anxiety and fear; depression, hopelessness, helplessness, loneliness and sadness tended to be medium. The level of emotions including shame and guilt tended to be low. The top six forest therapy programs preferred by subfertile women include a deep breath of air /phytoncide, forest bathing/wind bathing/sun bathing, self-esteem recovery program, eating organic foods, low body bathing/foot bathing/hot spring bathing, and breathing/breathing exercises. Subfertile women highly pressured to become pregnant showed significant differences in the preference of the self-esteem recovery program, Domar 's relaxation therapy, NLP therapy, and sleeping in the woods, while women with anxiety and fear showed significant differences in the preference of walking barefoot in forests, mountain walking in silence, listening to water sounds/ hand and foot soak, self-esteem recovery program, NLP therapy, cognitive behavior therapy, aroma therapy, integrated art therapy in forests, forest bathing/wind bathing/sunbathing, a deep breath of air/phytoncide, and observing stars. Women with depression, hopelessness, helplessness, loneliness, and sadness showed significant differences in eating organic foods, self-esteem recovery program, counseling/coaching, and cognitive behavior therapy. The significance of this study was to analyze the preference of subfertile women, as subjects, for forest therapy program. The results of this study are expected to be used as basis data for developing forest therapy programs for subfertile women.
