“…This study also reveals that friendly environmental behavior positively promotes tourists' revisit intention (H 6 ). Previous studies such as those of Clark, Mulgrew, Kannis-Dymand, Schaffer and Hoberg [18]; Goh and Ritchie [19]; and Han [20] showed that the determinants of intention and attitude towards behavior significantly increase when tourists are aware of the environmental problems and this awareness increases their intention to do pro-environmental actions. Thus, revisit intention will increase should friendly environmental behavior be promoted via environmental emotion or concern and perceived value, thus supporting the claim of TPB.…”

“…When tourists are able to have positive environmental emotion and become concerned with environmental protection due to the environmental knowledge gained from the tourist visit, they then have the motivation and intention to revisit the place [46,64] and exhibit friendly environmental behavior. Previous studies [18][19][20] also showed that the determinants of intention, attitude towards the behavior, social norms or social pressures, and perceived behavioral control all increase when aware of environmental problems, which then increases their intention to do pro-environmental actions. Thus, it is proposed that: Hypothesis 5.…”

“…The attitude of the persons, their social norms or social pressures, and the perceived behavioral control indirectly affect behavior through behavioral intentions [6,17]. Previous tourism-related studies [18][19][20] have demonstrated that the determinants of intention, attitude towards the behavior, social norms or social pressures, and the perceived behavioral control all increase when the tourists are aware of environmental problems, which then increases their intention to do pro-environmental actions.…”

This research empirically tested the effect of perceived value of ecosystem services on tourists’ intentions to revisit the Aogu coastal wetland in Taiwan. Data were collected using a structured survey and structural equation modeling was then done to test the research hypotheses. Based on the data collected from 230 tourists in the Aogu coastal wetland, the perceived value of ecosystem services of wetland has a positive effect on tourists’ environmental concerns and friendly environmental behavior. Results also indicate that tourists’ environmental concern has a positive effect on friendly environmental behavior and tourists’ friendly environmental behavior has a positive effect on revisit intention to the Aogu coastal wetland. However, the effects of perceived value of ecosystem services and tourists’ environmental concerns on revisit intention were not found to be significant in this study. These results have implications for tourism management of coastal wetlands and the increase in revisit intentions of tourists.

“…In a specific tourism context, Clark et al (2019) positively associated a tourist's environmental identity with increased pro-environmental intentions. More specifically, Landon et al 2019described how educational expeditions that include nature-based experiences within climatesensitive environs, such as the Polar Regions, may build affective association with environments that are at threat.…”

“…For example, Black et al [57] explored Australian suburb residents' attitudes and behaviours and indicated a strong association between CTN, attitudes towards conservation action and proconservation behaviour. Clark et al [58] suggested that wildlife experiences connecting people with nature may enhance environmentally sustainable intentions. Thirteen percent of the articles were interpreted to belong to this category.…”

Purpose of Review The review examines recent scientific discussion on the concepts and measurements of human connection to nature (CTN) and pro-environmental behaviour (PEB). In addition to that, we explore the environmental contexts in which study populations are exposed to nature or nature experiences, particularly the contexts in which forests emerge from these studies, and lastly outline gaps in research. Recent Findings Outlining the association between CTN and PEB has been widely researched over the past 5 years. The concepts and measurements referring to these terms vary, but a few commonly used concepts were identified. The review classifies the approaches used for exploring the relationship between CTN and PEB into four categories. The review indicates that the interconnection between CTN and PEB is mostly studied as a part of the wider concept. Approximately half of the reviewed articles explored the actual exposure to some natural environment or nature activity either directly or indirectly. Forests only played a small role as a natural environment in the reviewed articles. Summary Forests appear to be of very little weight or under-represented in CTN and PEB literature as an explicitly identified natural environment. Results also indicate that the human-forest relationship has not been defined precisely in empirically based scientific literature. The paper discusses implications for the future research focusing on emphasizing the role of forests as natural environments in the research of CTN and PEB.
