摘要

觸覺是最貼近人類生活的感知,卻經常被忽略。皮膚在生理上除了「屏障」以外,還能創造不同的體驗與豐富的情緒感受。本研究目的為探討不同的自然特徵對於人的觸覺療癒與情緒體驗之影響,透過質性訪談瞭解受訪者對自然環境中各個自然特徵的觸覺感受及情緒體驗。本研究根據訪談內容歸納出自然特徵在觸覺體驗方面可分為六個類別;在情緒體驗方面可分為八個類別。根據結果提出以下結論:(一)人們經由觸覺與自然特徵接觸,可以感受到療癒和正面情緒,進而加深對自然環境的認知和情感連接;(二)自然環境中的特定的觸覺感受能夠產生令人感到療癒的觸覺體驗;(三)自然環境中,幾種特定的情緒感受被人們認為是觸覺療癒。

Touch is a fundamental human sense that often goes overlooked. Beyond serving as a physiological barrier, the skin can create diverse experiences and evoke rich emotional responses. This study explores the impact of different natural features on tactile healing and emotional experiences. Qualitative interviews were conducted to understand participants’ tactile perceptions and emotional experiences in natural environments. Based on the interviews, natural features were categorized into six types regarding tactile perception. Additionally, the emotional responses related to tactile healing from natural features were classified into eight types. The conclusions drawn from the results were as follows: (1) Interaction with natural features through touch can evoke healing and positive emotions, thereby deepening cognitive and emotional connections to the natural environment; (2) Specific tactile sensations in natural environments can produce healing tactile experiences; (3) People perceive specific emotional experiences in natural environments as tactile healing.
