Environmental cognitions, land change, and social–ecological feedbacks: an overview (2013, background): “The Connectedness to Nature Scale (CNS) was designed to measure this experiential and affective relation with the natural environment (Mayer and McPherson Frantz 2004).”
Toward effective nature conservation on farmland: making farmers matter (2013, background): “To date a substantial body of research on farmer behavior and behavior with regards to conservation in particular has been developed (e.g., Schmitzberger et al. 2005; Burton et al. 2008; Ahnström 2009; Goslinga & Williams 2010; Lokhorst et al. 2010, 2011).”
Place attachment: How far have we come in the last 40 years? (2011, unknown): “Gosling and Williams (2010) did not ﬁ nd any signi ﬁ cant relation between place attachment and farmers ’ management of native vegetation.”
Fostering customers' pro-environmental behavior at a museum (2017, methodology): “Researchers also agree that a willingness to sacrifice and connectedness to nature are decisive in anticipating individuals’ eco-friendly behaviors (e.g. Gosling & Williams, 2010; Mayer & Frantz, 2004; Rahman & Reynolds, 2016; Thøgersen, 2000).”
Getting to know nature: evaluating the effects of the Get to Know Program on children’s connectedness with nature (2017, background): “Connectedness with nature is related to positive proenvironmental behavior (Chochola 2009; Gosling and Williams 2010) and greater environmental concern (Schultz 2001; Schultz and Tabanico 2007).”
Assessing Environmental Stewardship Motivation (2011, result): “However, our findings here are consistent with studies that have questioned a strong association between connection to nature and pro environmental behavior (see Gosling & Williams, 2010).”
From Awe to Ecological Behavior: The Mediating Role of Connectedness to Nature (2018, background): “Previous studies provide related evidence that a sense of CN would influence pro-environmental attitudes and ecological behaviors [15,27–29]; for example, farmers with a higher level of CN showed more willingness to protect the local vegetation [12].”
Feelings for the Suffering of Others and the Environment (2016, unknown): “…(i.e., the other-oriented tendencies of environmental concern, empathy, and feelings for nature) promotes engagement in proenvironmental tendencies (Gosling & Williams, 2010; Karpiak & Baril, 2008; Mayer & Frantz, 2004; Milfont & Sibley, 2012; Raymond, Brown, & Robinson, 2011; Schultz, 2001, 2002;…”
Sense of place in environmental education (2012, background): “For example, one study found that place attachment did not predict pro-environmental behavior such as protecting remnant vegetation by farmers in northern Victoria, Australia, but the authors suggest that this type of on-farm pro-environmental behavior is constrained by ‘contextual factors such as i”
Nordic in nature: friluftsliv and environmental connectedness (2013, background): “Research supports the existence of a relationship between connectedness to nature and environmental action (Gosling and Williams 2010 ; Mayer and Frantz 2004 ; Schultz 2001 ).”
A comparative study of relative roles and sequences of cognitive and affective attitudes on tourists’ pro-environmental behavioral intention (2020, background): “That is, cognitive or affective attitude may lead to low-effort PEBI but not necessarily to high-effort PEBI (Gosling & Williams, 2010), and vice versa.”
