【摘要】在一系列四项研究中（Ns = 245、135、155、222），我们探索了欣赏自然风光对促进从排斥中恢复的影响。我们首先操纵了排斥现象，然后随机分配了参与者，以观看自然，城市风光或中性物体的照片。在所有四项研究中，观看自然照片的参与者报告的状态社交痛苦水平明显降低，情感平衡和自尊水平显着升高。此外，当被要求回顾和回忆自己被排斥时的感受时，观看自然照片的参与者报告说，对基本情绪需求的回顾性满意度明显高于对照条件下的参与者。内部荟萃分析显示，效应大小为d= 0.58。就我们所知，这些研究是第一个提供实验证据，证明接触大自然可以减轻社会排斥的痛苦。

[Abstract] In a series of four studies (Ns = 245, 135, 155, 222), we explored the effects of viewing nature scenes on promoting recovery from ostracism. We first manipulated experiences of ostracism, then randomly assigned participants to view photos of either nature, urban scenes, or neutral objects. Across all four studies, participants who viewed nature photos reported significantly lower levels of state social pain, along with significantly higher levels of affect balance and self-esteem. Moreover, when asked to look back and recall how they felt at the time of being ostracized, participants who viewed nature photos reported significantly higher levels of retrospective satisfaction of basic emotional needs than did participants in control conditions. An internal meta-analysis revealed an effect size of d = 0.58. These studies are the first, to our knowledge, to provide experimental evidence of how exposure to nature can alleviate the pain of social ostracism.
