Studiet undersøger, hvordan rettet opmærksomhed påvirker informationsbehandling, og hvordan træthed fra denne opmærksomhed har betydelige konsekvenser. Opmærksomhedens restaureringsteori fremhæver, at naturoplevelser kan fremme genopretning fra træthed.

Hele abstrakt på originalsprog:
Directed attention plays an important role in human information processing; its fatigue, in turn, has far-reaching consequences. Attention Restoration Theory provides an analysis of the kinds of experiences that lead to recovery from such fatigue. Natural environments turn out to be particularly rich in the characteristics necessary for restorative experiences. An integrative framework is proposed that places both directed attention and stress in the larger context of human-environment relationships.
