Bird sounds and their contributions to perceived attention restoration and stress recovery (2013, background): “…and stress recovery via natural sounds and soundscapes (e.g. Alvarsson, Wien, & Nilsson, 2010) and particularly perceived restorativeness (e.g. Kjellgren & Buhrkall, 2010; Payne, 2012), but to date we are unaware of any published studies that seek to understand reasons why bird sounds might…”
Stress reduction in the hospital room: Applying Ulrich's theory of supportive design (2015, background): “Simulated nature has been found to have stress-reducing effects similar to those of being in nature (Berman et al., 2008; Kjellgren & Buhrkall, 2010).”
Nature contact and mood benefits: contact duration and mood type (2018, positive): “…(Brooks, Ottley, Sevigny, & Arbuthnott, 2017) and, although both actual and simulated (e.g. pictures) nature contact benefit emotions, actual contact has stronger effects (Brooks et al., 2017; Kjellgren & Buhrkall, 2010; Mayer, Frantz, Bruehlman-Senecal, & Dolliver, 2009; McMahan & Estes, 2015).”
Effects of Public Green Space on Acute Psychophysiological Stress Response: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of the Experimental and Quasi-Experimental Evidence (2019, methodology): “Likewise, we excluded studies including only HR, blood pressure, or pulse as indicators of a stress response (Kjellgren & Buhrkall, 2010; Li et al., 2016; Mao, Cao, et al., 2012).”
The effect of contact with natural environments on positive and negative affect: A meta-analysis (2015, result): “Thus, consistent with the limited existing literature directly comparing the effects of real vs. simulated nature on well-being (e.g. Kjellgren & Buhrkall, 2010; Mayer et al., 2009), the current study indicated that people reap additional benefit from being out in real nature when compared to being…”
The Role of Methodological Choices in the Effects of Experimental Exposure to Simulated Natural Landscapes on Human Health and Cognitive Performance: A Systematic Review (2020, background): “…(Yin et al., 2018) or outdoors (Berman et al., 2008; Brooks et al., 2017; Calogiuri et al., 2018; Gatersleben & Andrews, 2013; Hartig et al., 1997; Kahn et al., 2008; Kjellgren & Buhrkall, 2010; Lassonde et al., 2012; Mayer et al., 2009; Olafsdottir et al., 2018; Plante, 1996; Ryan et al, 2010).”
A Review of Psychological Literature on the Health and Wellbeing Benefits of Biophilic Design (2015, background): “Images of nature have been found to be as stress reducing as actual views of nature in certain circumstances [37].”
