Abstract

Context

Landscape sensation is essential for the delivery of cultural ecosystem services (CESs), yet the pathways through which these services are delivered remain inadequately understood. Exploring how people obtain CESs from landscapes facilitates better understanding of the tradeoffs and synergies between ecosystem services and landscape sustainability.

Objectives

This study aimed to elucidate the sensory pathways that links landscape attributes to CESs, focusing on the roles of cognitive and affective experiences.

Methods

We analyzed social media comments for the measurement scale of cognition. We employed partial least squares structural equation modeling to integrate sensation, cognition, affect, and satisfaction, using questionnaire data (n = 503).

Results

Cognitive comprehensions and affective responses play a crucial role in interpreting CESs while sensory experiences do not directly determine people’s satisfaction with CESs. The effective pathways are achieved through the sole mediator of cognition or by serial mediators of cognition and affect. Of the two mediators, cognition has a more profound mediating effect than affect.

Conclusions

Both physical and biological components, such as landscape sensory attributes, as well as cognitive and affective responses, influence human-nature interactions. These components should be considered when promoting the sustainability of human-dominated landscapes.

通过将景观感觉与文化生态系统服务联系起来的认知和情感途径提高人类福祉

背景景观感觉对于提供文化生态系统服务（CES）至关重要，但人们对提供这些服务的途径仍然了解不足。探索人们如何从景观中获得文化生态系统服务有助于更好地理解生态系统服务与景观可持续性之间的权衡与协同作用。本研究旨在阐明将景观属性与文化生态系统服务联系起来的感官途径，重点关注认知和情感体验的作用。结果认知理解和情感反应在解释 CES 中发挥了关键作用，而感官体验并不直接决定人们对 CES 的满意度。有效途径是通过认知这一唯一中介或认知和情感这一串联中介实现的。结论景观感官属性等物理和生物因素以及认知和情感反应都会影响人与自然的互动。在促进人类主导景观的可持续性时，应考虑这些因素。

期刊介绍： Landscape Ecology is the flagship journal of a well-established and rapidly developing interdisciplinary science that focuses explicitly on the ecological understanding of spatial heterogeneity. Landscape Ecology draws together expertise from both biophysical and socioeconomic sciences to explore basic and applied research questions concerning the ecology, conservation, management, design/planning, and sustainability of landscapes as coupled human-environment systems. Landscape ecology studies are characterized by spatially explicit methods in which spatial attributes and arrangements of landscape elements are directly analyzed and related to ecological processes.
