Based on my literature review, I argued that art-making could be helpful in improving our nature-human relationships. I then explored the experiences of four participants who made short films about their relationships with nature. I interviewed these participants before and after their film-making experience, asking how their nature-human relationships changed due to the film-making experience. I analyzed my participants’ experiences using the framework of Experiential Personal Constructivist Psychology (Leitner, 1985). Participants stated that, due to the film-making experience, they could deepen the relationships with nature by becoming more aware and appreciative of the nature in their lives. Participants’ experiences were also consistent with Attention Restoration Theory (Kaplan, 1995), as they became more aware of themselves and nature due to their film-making in nature. I discuss several implications for Experiential Personal Construct Psychology, Attention Restoration Theory, and future research. 2018-04-18 English text Miami University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1523999723625547 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1523999723625547 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
