Abstract

The beneficial effects of greenspace on mental health supports the exploration of greenspace in the prevention and treatment of substance use and substance use disorder (SUD) among adolescents and young adults. This scoping review aimed to summarize associations between greenspace and substance use and SUD among adolescents and young adults, describe how greenspace is being measured and operationalized, and identify differential effects among subpopulations and geographic contexts. Following PRISMA recommendations, 15 articles were screened into the scoping review and data was extracted from each article. Adolescents and young adults who experienced guided activities in nature reported less substance use, while passive engagement in nature was associated with increased substance use. Recommendations for future research are provided to untangle these effects to develop evidence-based practices for the inclusion of nature exposure in substance use prevention and SUD intervention with adolescents and young adults.

研究绿色空间与青少年和年轻人物质使用之间的关系：一个范围审查。

绿色空间对心理健康的有益影响支持了绿色空间在青少年和年轻人物质使用和物质使用障碍（SUD）的预防和治疗中的探索。本综述旨在总结绿色空间与青少年和年轻人的物质使用和SUD之间的联系，描述如何测量和操作绿色空间，并确定亚人群和地理环境之间的差异影响。按照PRISMA的建议，15篇文章被筛选到范围审查中，并从每篇文章中提取数据。在大自然中经历过引导活动的青少年和年轻人报告的物质使用较少，而被动参与大自然则与物质使用增加有关。为未来的研究提供了建议，以理清这些影响，发展基于证据的实践，将自然暴露纳入青少年和年轻人的物质使用预防和SUD干预中。
