Over the recent past, tools have been developed to asses people's connection to and attitudes towards nature due to increasing interest in this topic in society and research. We translated one such questionnaire, the Nature Relatedness Scale, consisting of three subscales (NR-Self, NR-Perspective, NR-Experience) to German. We collected 251 data sets and performed a confirmatory factor analysis, followed by an exploratory factor analysis. The analyses revealed that the reliability of the German NRS as a whole was good. However, they also showed NR-Perspective to be the weakest factor, and that NR-Self was a rather vague construct, closely connected to the other two subscales. Overall, we came to the conclusion that the NRS' three subscales are not as distinct and reliable as expected, and instead suggest a two-factor solution (NR-Presence and NR-Perspective) for use in German.
近年来，由于社会和研究界对这一话题的兴趣日益浓厚，人们开发了一些工具来评估人们与自然的联系以及对自然的态度。我们将一份此类问卷——自然关联量表（Nature Relatedness Scale）翻译成了德语，该量表由三个子量表（NR-自我、NR-视角、NR-体验）组成。我们收集了251个数据集，并进行了验证性因素分析，随后进行了探索性因素分析。分析结果显示，德语版自然关联量表总体可靠性良好。然而，分析也表明NR-视角是最薄弱的因素，且NR-自我是一个相当模糊的结构，与其他两个子量表紧密相连。总体而言，我们得出的结论是，自然关联量表的三个子量表并不像预期的那样清晰和可靠，因此建议在德语中使用双因素解决方案（NR-存在和NR-视角）。
