Paper doi abstract bibtex The goal of this study was to examine the relationships among connectedness with nature, demographic factors, religious/spiritual beliefs, and psychological resilience in a postdisaster community. This study also investigated differences between those who were personally present versus those not present during the 2011 Joplin tornado. A total of 56 participants were solicited in Joplin while visiting the Cunningham Park Butterfly Garden and Overlook, a nature-based, greening intervention for postdisaster communities. Participants completed the Connectedness with Nature-Single Item (CWN-SI) scale, the Brief Resilience Scale, and a scale assessing spirituality/religiosity (SRB). A linear regression analysis with simultaneous entry revealed that both education and SRB, but not psychological resilience, were significantly predictive of CWN-SI scores. Deeper analysis found that a significant positive correlation between CWN-SI and SRB existed only among participants who did not personally experience the Joplin tornado. These findings propose that exposure to a nature-based disaster could potentially alter the relationship between nature connectedness and spirituality/religiosity. © 2017, Mary Ann Liebert, Inc.
