This study aims to explore the influence of nature-oriented chatbots on the mental health of older adults residing alone. Leveraging the therapeutic potential of nature exposure and the interactive capabilities of chatbot technology, our research seeks to investigate whether engaging with nature-oriented chatbots can mitigate feelings of depression, and loneliness while enhancing overall psychological well-being and quality of life. Through a combination of experimental interventions and psychological assessments, the investigators will assess the impact of nature-oriented chatbots on participants' mental health outcomes.
