The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of the frequency of participation in horticultural activity types on psychological well-being and fruit and vegetable intake. The study sought to understand the mediating effect of psychological well-being between the frequency of types of horticultural activities and the frequency of fruit and vegetable intake. Convenience sampling was used to collect 400 valid data through a self-administered questionnaire that inquired about the frequency of four horticultural activity types (indoor plant activities, outdoor plant activities, arts/crafts activities, and excursions), the measure of psychological well-being, and the frequency of fruit and vegetable intake. The results showed that a higher frequency of indoor and outdoor plant activity positively affected psychological well-being. Psychological well-being played a partial mediation role between indoor plant activity and vegetable and fruit intake and a full mediation role between outdoor plant activity and vegetable and fruit intake. The plant-related arts/crafts activities and excursions were not associated with psychological well-being or vegetable and fruit intake.
本研究旨在探讨园艺活动类型的参与频率对心理幸福感和蔬果摄入量的影响。研究旨在了解园艺活动类型的参与频率与蔬果摄入量之间通过心理幸福感的中介效应。通过自填式问卷，采用便利抽样收集了 400 份有效数据，问卷内容包括四种园艺活动类型（室内植物活动、室外植物活动、艺术/手工艺活动和远足）、心理幸福感测量以及蔬果摄入量的频率。结果表明，室内和室外植物活动的参与频率越高，对心理幸福感的影响越积极。心理幸福感在室内植物活动与蔬菜和水果摄入量之间起到部分中介作用，在室外植物活动与蔬菜和水果摄入量之间起到完全中介作用。与植物相关的艺术/手工艺活动和远足与心理幸福感或蔬菜和水果摄入量无关。
