Abstract

This study uncovers the complex inter-relations among natural environmental quality as nature-based solutions (NBS), emotional well-being, mental health, and life satisfaction in state park travelers' behavioral intention formation. This research also explores the moderating influence of national culture. A quantitative approach was made by using the data collected from three distinct cultures (India, the United States, and Korea). The proposed theoretical framework contained a sufficient prediction power for intention. A vital role of study variables in life satisfaction and intention generation was evident. National culture moderates the relationship among constructs in India and Korea but not in the US. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
