Nature contact and mood benefits: contact duration and mood type (2018, background): “The evidence that does exist about duration and frequency is primarily correlational and suggests that increased contact with nature improves well-being benefits (Carrus et al., 2015; Cole & Hall, 2010; Kelevi, Matti, Liisa, & Harri, 2008; Lafortezza, Carrus, Sanesi, & Davies, 2009).”
The effect of contact with natural environments on positive and negative affect: A meta-analysis (2015, background): “…studies compared the effects of exposure to natural environments to exposure to urban or built environments.2 Studies which did not utilize a randomized control group design, such as those that used a single-group posttest-only design (e.g. Cole & Hall, 2010), were excluded from the review.”
