摘要

背景:尽管许多大学生都有机会参加自然娱乐活动,但他们并没有利用这些体验来改善自己的身心健康。虚拟现实体验提供了一个潜在的途径来激励这些人进行户外休闲,但还需要进行研究来确定虚拟娱乐是否能带来现实世界中的休闲意图。目的:本研究调查了虚拟现实体验是否会影响学生进行自然娱乐的动机,并使用在自然中度过时光的意向和自我效能量表进行测量。方法/途径:作为公园、娱乐和旅游入门课程的一部分,学生们通过虚拟现实探索自然。该研究采用了混合方法设计,使用了体验前后调查、参与者访谈以及学生通过 Instagram 提交作业的文档分析。研究结果/结论:初步研究结果表明,虚拟现实可以接近真实世界的自然环境,并为这一人群提供了获得真实世界户外娱乐机会的潜在途径。影响:在无法进行真实世界实地体验的情况下,教育者和从业者可以利用本研究的结果来评估虚拟娱乐体验是否适合他们的受众。虽然这些体验并不能取代真实世界的大自然,但它们可能是参与者进行户外娱乐的途径之一。

“Nature Environments Without Actually Being There”: Virtual Recreation Experiences and Real-World Intentions
Background: Despite access to nature-based recreation, many college students do not take advantage of these experiences to improve their mental and physical health. Virtual reality experiences provide a potential pathway to motivate this population to recreate outdoors, but research is needed to determine whether virtual recreation can lead to real-world intent to recreate. Purpose: This study investigated whether virtual reality experiences influence student motivation for nature-based recreation, as measured with the intention and self-efficacy to spend time in nature scales. Methodology/Approach: As part of an introductory parks, recreation, and tourism class, students explored nature through virtual reality. The study incorporated a mixed methods design using pre- and post-experience surveys, interviews with participants, and document analysis of student assignment submissions over Instagram. Findings/Conclusions: Preliminary findings suggest that virtual reality can approximate real-world nature environments and provide a potential pathway for this population to access real-world outdoor recreation opportunities. Implications: In situations where real-world field experiences are not possible, educators and practitioners can use the findings of this study to assess whether a virtual recreation experience is appropriate for their audience. While these experiences do not substitute real-world nature, they may be part of a participant’s pathway to recreate outdoors.
