Exploring the Dose‐Response Relationship Between Nature‐Based Outdoor Activities, Nature Connectedness and Social Health In Adolescents: A Quasi‐Experimental Controlled Study
Our findings suggest that longer-term encounters with nature result in a greater sense of nature connectedness and more significant improvements in social health compared to a one-off visit. Maintaining a sustained exposure-response relationship with nature can help young people have a physically and socially healthy adolescence.
