ABSTRACT Migration to the city requires in-depth study of the underlying reasons. These reasons include attitudes towards urban and rural areas. To study the relationship between attitudes (implicit and explicit), feelings and beliefs regarding urban and rural areas, we conducted research to measure implicit attitudes through the Implicit Association Test, and explored explicit attitudes, feelings and beliefs through ad hoc questions. The results showed that having a university education (vs. not having one) is associated with less negative feelings towards urban areas. Those who had a favourable implicit and explicit attitude towards urban areas expressed the greatest concern about the depopulation of rural areas. We discuss the results in terms of ‘attitudinal balance’, which would imply a change in attitudes among the population that seeks to increase beliefs about the benefits of rural areas without undermining positive beliefs associated with urban areas.

ABSTRACT The research shows the relationship of adolescents with natural environments and some impacts arising from the social isolation imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic. A face-to-face survey was applied with 277 adolescents (mean = 16.08 years; SD = 1.09) before the pandemic was declared, and during the pandemic 79 of them returned to answer an online survey. The results showed that adolescents had different frequencies of contact with natural environments before social isolation, but in that case, the family was the main mediator. Those who went more often to natural environments and who saw themselves as part of nature were the ones who most missed nature and wanted to go to natural spaces, and were also those who expressed greater concern about environmental problems during the pandemic.

ABSTRACT The communication of environmental awareness through social media can act as a mechanism for adopting more responsible consumption patterns. Therefore, the aim of this research was to analyse the impact of greenfluencer credibility on attitude, subjective norms and perceived behavioural control, as well as the effect these have on purchase intentions and of the latter on green purchase behaviours. Quantitative, non-experimental, explanatory, cross-sectional research was conducted on 201 Mexican subjects between the ages of 15 and 60, all followers of environmental influencers on Facebook. The results shows that the credibility of greenfluencers had a positive effect on attitude, subjective norms and behavioural control. In addition, both attitude and perceived behavioural control positively impacted purchase intentions, although subjective norms did not. Finally, purchase intentions had a significant effect on the actual purchase of green products. Further exploration would be useful on the role of greenfluencers in the adoption of sustainable lifestyles.

ABSTRACT The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent UK lockdowns restricted mobility, altered access to the outdoors and led to changes in the environment (e.g., reduced traffic, pollution and crowding). This is likely to have altered the way people evaluated outdoor environments. Here we investigated aesthetic and emotional responses (liking, openness, relaxation) to paintings and photographs depicting landscapes and urban scenes in three UK cohorts: pre-lockdown, spring 2020 lockdown, and winter 2021 lockdown. Participants (N = 334) reported higher levels of liking, openness and relaxation for landscapes and urban scenes during the two lockdown periods compared to pre-lockdown levels. Importantly, evaluations in the lockdown groups were influenced by the types of places visited most frequently. These findings aid our understanding of the psychological effects of lockdowns on evaluations of outdoor environments and are relevant to the development of policies for the promotion of well-being, including the design of more open and relaxing urban spaces.

ABSTRACT In theory, preference should increase with spaciousness and moderate surprise, levelling off or decreasing for high surprise. To test this we created three simulated indoor spaces — SMALL (smallest size, dimmest light, smallest window), MEDIUM (medium size, light and window size) and LARGE (largest size, brightest light, largest windows) — and virtual reality walks through each possible pair of spaces. Three groups of 30 students (46 men, 44 women) rated either spaciousness, surprise or preference. Manipulation checks confirmed postulated effects of SMALL, MEDIUM and LARGE on judged spaciousness and of the size of the discrepancy between each pair of spaces on judged surprise. For preference, participants rated a space as more preferred if preceded by a smaller space and less preferred if preceded by a larger one. Preference also increased from low to moderate surprise but decreased slightly for high surprise. Research could consider adult responses to real spaces. Designers would do well to consider dynamic experience.

ABSTRACT Housing has been acknowledged as a basic human need with an impact on health and well-being. Since older people tend to be more exposed to features in their home environment, it is important to identify specific vulnerabilities. This study used cross-sectional data of 40,185 respondents from the 2014 European Social Survey Round 7 to explore the relationship between housing problems, age group (≤ 70 years and > 70 years) and evaluative (life satisfaction) and hedonic (happiness) dimensions of subjective well-being (SWB) of 21 European countries. Housing problems were significantly associated with lower levels of happiness and life satisfaction (LS) in a multilevel model. The age group was found to be a moderator of that association. When exposed to housing problems, older people (> 70 years) presented lower levels of happiness than younger adults (≤ 70 years). These findings shed light on the differentiation of age groups and call for maintenance and improvement of housing conditions in later life, aiming to promote well-being.

ABSTRACT Research into place attachment theory has traditionally focused on the positive values associated with territories, leaving to one side the analysis of phenomena where the construction of socio-physical bonds is marked by ambivalence, as in the case of territorial stigma. With a view to contributing further information to existing knowledge on this topic, the research presented here aims to explore the dimensions involved in place attachment in relation to stigmatized urban communities in Costa Rica. This study applies a qualitative approach, carrying out interviews and applying participatory mapping. The results have been grouped into five dimensions and three maps, which show that place attachment in the communities studied here is marked by socio-affective bonds, the socio-demographic characteristics of their residents, urban centrality, territorial management and criminality. Based on the information generated, we conclude that place attachment is a complex phenomenon and is shaped by socio-political attributes that require more in-depth exploration.

ABSTRACT Short scales assessing human–nature relationships have the practical advantages of being efficient, low in item redundancy and less at risk of inducing fatigue and boredom. It is critical that these short scales are subject to the same psychometric scrutiny as their longer versions. The present study focused on the short version of the Nature Relatedness (NR) Scale: the NR-6. Specifically, we aimed to provide the first test of its factor structure using confirmatory factor analysis and to describe the discriminability and difficulty of its six items via Item Response Theory. The study sample comprised 510 adults from Portugal. Confirmatory factor analyses supported a bifactor model over a one-factor model. Bifactor indices showed that the NR-6 items measure an essentially unidimensional nature relatedness construct. The six items were good at discriminating individuals varying in nature relatedness. Finally, consistent with prior research, we found a strong positive correlation between the NR-6 and a conceptually related measure. We conclude that the NR-6 has adequate psychometric properties and is a valid measure of individuals’ nature relatedness.

We conclude that the NR-6 has adequate psychometric properties and is a valid measure of individuals’ nature relatedness.","PeriodicalId":55641,"journal":{"name":"Psyecology-Revista Bilingue de Psicologia Ambiental","volume":"126 1","pages":"352 - 376"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87656717","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ABSTRACT Industries sometimes leaves invisible yet dangerous chemical memories of their activities. Because these compounds are invisible, people rely on heuristics informed in part by people-place relations to make a risk judgment. The Marseille region of France provides an interesting case to analyse how local risks are judged in relation to people-place variables. The perceived risks of a depollution project where ‘red mud’ (an industrial residue) is used to neutralize lead-contaminated soil are analysed in relation to (1) place attachment and (2) trust in several types of organization. Results show that participants with stronger local attachment perceive their local environment as less polluted and consider the project as a greater threat. Furthermore, risks vs. benefits associated with the project are significantly explained by age (associated with perceived risk) and trust in societal organizations (associated with perceived benefits). Discussion considers how the diversity of local publics could lead to widely different reactions to the depollution project across the city’s social tissue.
