Book excerpt: The results of a multiple regression analysis with the longitudinal panel data, which was used to explore the predictive value of nature contact on stress, suggested that nature contact did not predict a change in stress two weeks later. The findings suggest that the tool developed for this study, the Nature Contact Questionnaire (NCQ), is a valid and reliable instrument to measure nature contact or healthy environmental exposures in an office setting. The exploratory study's findings suggest that there is a small, yet significant relationship between nature contact at work and generalized perceived stress among office staff. The findings may be used to help create healthy office spaces to reduce stress and stress-related health outcomes among office staff.
