| dc.description.abstract | Children currently spend minimal time in nature. Disconnection from nature may impact health in a variety of ways, including reduced attentional abilities. We examined children‘s attention before and after a 30-minute exposure to an urban or natural environment. The nature condition, but not the urban condition, led to improved attention. | |
