Podsumowanie	The New Ecological Paradigm (NEP) Scale measures endorsement of an ecocentric worldview that views humans as embedded within, rather than dominant over, nature. Developed by Dunlap et al. (2000) to update the original 1978 scale, the NEP assesses environmental beliefs across multiple dimensions including balance of nature, limits to growth, human exceptionalism, and nature's intrinsic value. It is widely used in environmental psychology, sustainability research, and conservation communication studies.	The Connectedness to Nature Scale (CNS) measures the degree to which individuals feel emotionally and cognitively connected to nature as part of their sense of self. Developed by Mayer and Frantz (2004), the CNS operationalizes the construct of nature connection—the felt sense of kinship, interdependence, and belonging with the natural world. The scale is widely employed in environmental psychology research, health outcome studies examining nature exposure effects, and intervention evaluations designed to strengthen human-nature relationships.
