Biophilic design increases attention among adults, but little is known about the influence of biophilic design on attention in childhood. We assessed visual attention in 4–5-year-old children as a function of high and low degrees of biophilic design. In the high-biophilic-design condition, the children saw four plants, which were placed on their desks. In the low-biophilic-design condition, the children saw no plants on their desks. The children viewed a series of abstract images on a computer…

Results show that learning environments with biophilic design are more effective in supporting pupils' attentional performance than conventional learning environments and, over time, strengthen the feeling of affiliation with Nature.

The findings indicate that environments can enhance attention not only in the general population but also in ADHD populations, and “Doses of nature” might serve as a safe, inexpensive, widely accessible new tool in the tool kit for managing ADHD symptoms.

The literature review shows that VE is capable of supporting critical features of biophilic design studies such as representing combinations ofBiophilic patterns, providing multimodal sensory inputs, simulating stress induction tasks, and supporting required exposure time to observe biophobic patterns.

Analysis of the eye-tracking data indicated that the scanpaths of children with TD and ASD were characterized by eye movements geometrically equivalent to Lévy flights, and a clustering analysis revealed a greater dispersion of eye movements for these children.
