Birdwatching has a positive effect on the psyche

Before starting, the subjects underwent a mental status test according to WHO standards. Then they were divided into three groups. In the first group, the volunteers followed a normal lifestyle, in the second group they walked in parks at least once a day for half an hour, and in the third group they not only walked but also monitored birds using a special smartphone application.

After 35 days, all participants took a psychological test again.
