Sport and recreation research is needed to provide effective ways to mitigate empathetic relationships with nature that engage ethnic populations in environmentally sustainable and emotionally rewarding recreation. Academic outreach and engagement through sport and recreation can model and promote healthy relationships to enhance the quality of life and quality of the environment, and thereby contribute to the sustainability of a Community, University, and Student body.

520 $a Sport and recreation research is needed to provide effective ways to mitigate empathetic relationships with nature that engage ethnic populations in environmentally sustainable and emotionally rewarding recreation. Academic outreach and engagement through sport and recreation can model and promote healthy relationships to enhance the quality of life and quality of the environment, and thereby contribute to the sustainability of a Community, University, and Student body.
520 $a This research on the emotions of ethnic populations in outdoor recreation is an exploratory qualitative and quantitative study that draws upon an interdisciplinary approach to systemically understand the relationship between sport and the environment. The theoretical and experiential research question explores emotional engagement in the context of sport and recreation to affect empathetic relationships to nature. In order to generate a hypothesis, a case study was used to map an emotional geography of outdoor recreation within a protected natural area on a university campus. This emotion-based re-examination of the Dunlap - Heffernan Thesis (1975) drew from a representative sample of 10 college students who had participated in high school sports.
520 $a Athletic-students in the study had authentic experiences walking on a trail in the natural area Baker Woodlot, a place with minimal symbolic representations of modernization and industrialization. Work and school responsibilities, as well as a lack of knowledge of the Natural Area were identified as barriers to previous involvement with Baker Woodlot. Past familiarity with nature was helpful for participants to mediate and construct their experiences during the study. Emotions "passiveness" and "relaxing" were the most significant indicators of change for experience and self subscales of Nature Relatedness. Perceptions of the Natural Area were described as both peaceful and in need of conservation. A discussion of the hypothesis, emotional engagement with peacefulness and curiosity in nature, can build capacity of sports and recreation to nurture empathy with nature, and is presented as the foundation for future research. Future studies of the emotional engagement with nature should have more students; and explore other natural areas to determine if all nature areas produce the same results.
