The Influence Of Natural Awe On Pro-environmental Consciousness: Relationship And Intervention

At present,our country's environmental pollution is serious and environmental awareness is weak.Junior high school students are in the early stages of the formation of individual values,which is easier to intervene.Early studies have shown that when the sense of awe is aroused,it will reduce the individual's level of self-attention and turn to focus on the external environment.Based on this,this study uses junior high school students as the research object,mainly using the form of questionnaires to explore the characteristics of junior high school students' sense of natural awe and the relationship between natural awe and environmental awareness;at the same time,a combination of quantitative research and qualitative research is used to verify the effectiveness of interactive reading therapy intervention.Study 1 used SPSS 22.0 and AMOS 23.0 software to revise the Chinese version of the natural awe questionnaire for junior high school students.Study 2 added demographic variables(gender,age,place of birth,father's education,mother's education,family situation,and the person who has the greatest influence on you),use SPSS 22.0 to perform one-way analysis of variance to compare differences;Study 3 introduced environmental awareness questionnaires on the basis of Study1 to explore the relationship between natural awe and environmental awareness of junior high school students;Study 4 used interactive reading therapy to intervene the environmental awareness of junior high school students in the form of group counseling,aiming to test whether interactive reading therapy can effectively improve the environmental awareness of junior high school students.Comparing the differences in the three intervention forms of interactive reading therapy,interactive reading + therapy(ie,reading + video therapy)and traditional environmental protection theme classes through quantitative research;Study 5 mainly adopted the method of interview to verify the conclusions of Study 4 through qualitative research.The main conclusions of this research are as follows:(1)Junior high school students generally have a higher sense of natural awe,with the most significant gender differences,and girls are higher than boys.(2)The correlation coefficient between the sense of natural awe and environmental awareness of junior high school students is low,but the structural equation model shows that the sense of natural awe is positively correlated with the ecological environment care,and the spearman correlation coefficient shows that the connection between nature and self and environmental awareness is positive at the 0.01 level.(3)Interactive reading therapy,interactive reading + therapy,and traditional environmental protection theme classes can effectively improve the environmental awareness of junior high school students.And the intervention effect of interactive reading therapy and interactive reading + therapy is better than the intervention form of traditional environmental protection theme class meeting.Moreover,the results of quantitative research and qualitative research are consistent.The above conclusions show that the junior high school students participating in this study generally have a higher sense of natural awe,and girls are higher than boys.The higher the natural and self-connectedness,the stronger the environmental awareness of junior high school students.For students with weak environmental awareness,the intervention of interactive reading therapy can effectively enhance their natural and selfconnectedness,thereby enhancing individual environmental awareness.
