Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Randomized clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of a multi-component nature-based intervention on clinical outcomes for visitors from different natural areas in Brazil.

Clinical Trial Description

There is a growing scientific literature that indicates a series of benefits of contact/connection with nature for health and well-being, such as the mental health improvement, hypertension improvement, restoration of attention and memory and immune system improvement. It is already known, among other findings, that contact with nature, even indirectly, through videos and photos, can promote a greater sense of relaxation, decrease stress levels and can promote positive emotions. The adoption of nature-based interventions has been expanded, both for the prevention of chronic health conditions and the promotion of general well-being, as well as for the treatment of physical, mental and social health. This clinical trial aims to assess the mean change in the World Health Organization well-being index, changes in self-perception of happiness, vitality, connection and engagement with nature in the pre-intervention, post-intervention and 30-day follow-up moments, in the control and intervention groups, in six different natural areas. In the multicomponent intervention, in addition to including walking in nature with attention to the senses, which will be carried out by the control group, the investigators associate other elements of a cognitive-behavioral nature, aiming human and non-human well-being. Therefore, in this health nature-based intervention, activities related to four types of experience are proposed (1- knowledge; 2- aesthetic/emotional; 3- integrated multisensory, 4- active experience). The study hypothesis is that Well-being, happiness and vitality outcomes will be more positive in the intervention group, and the connection with nature and engagement with conservation at 30 days post-intervention will be greater in the intervention group as well, due to adherence to nature-related activities that will be monitored and knowledge offered ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
