Resumo

O contato com os ambientes naturais é essencial para a constituição da Conexão com a Natureza (CN), um apego subjetivo à natureza, que por sua vez é fonte de benefícios para a saúde integral dos humanos. O tipo e a frequência de contato com ambientes naturais podem variar por diversos motivos. No âmbito laboral, a escolha da formação profissional pode se constituir em um indicativo de Conexão com a Natureza (CN). Para compreender a possível associação da formação acadêmica e níveis de CN, este estudo envolveu profissionais de várias áreas. Os 295 participantes responderam a um questionário virtual com dados sociodemográficos e escalas de CN. Nos dois estudos conduzidos confirma-se que a área de graduação e de pós-graduação dos profissionais são fatores que afetam a CN dos adultos, juntamente com um histórico de convívio positivo com a natureza tido na infância. Os resultados confirmam ainda que profissionais das áreas ambientais possuem níveis de CN maiores do que os de humanidades.
