Fig 1.
Diagrams used for analysis of explicit connectedness with nature and contextual HNC.
The four diagrams used to assess children’s: self-nature closeness (i.e. INS) (a), self-city closeness (b), home-nature closeness (c), home-city closeness (d).
Table 1.
Results of t-test analysis (means, t, df, p-values, effect size d) for differences in psychological and contextual HNC due to baseline, due to impact of the SP, and due to gender.
Fig 2.
Word clouds of themes for city, home, and nature.
The themes are reported more than three times. The size of the words is weighted for how many times the theme reoccurs in children’s answers.

Correlation table and principal component analysis.
(a) Spearman correlation table for all quantitative methods employed. Crossed elements are non-significant (p>.1). The strength of correlations is reported in the upper triangle. (b) Two-dimensional visualization of coordinates obtained from the principal component analysis for children’s desire to work for nature.
Table 2.
Results of principal component analysis.
Fig 4.
Three structural equation models to predict children’s desire to work for nature.
a) CTN model; b) HNC model; c) HND-HNC model. Latent variables are in circles, measured variables in rectangles, and the lines show standardized parameter estimates.
