abstract = {This paper aims to answer the following research questions: Are there di erences between
individual and collective pro-environmental behaviors (PEBs) in their relationship with wellbeing?
What role does connectedness to nature play in those relationships? We understand individual PEBs
as e orts to consume less and to reduce the environmental impact of consumption, whereas we define
collaborative PEBs in terms of environmental activism. We consider connectedness to nature as a
potential factor moderating the relationship between PEBs and wellbeing. The study incorporates
several dimensions of wellbeing: cognitive, a ective and eudaimonic. We use regression analysis to
study the extent to which individual and collective PEBs explain the three wellbeing dimensions and
we explore the moderating role of connectedness to nature using data from a sample of 973 students
at the University of Granada (Spain). Results indicate that individual PEBs are positively related
to the eudaimonic dimension of wellbeing but they do not explain the cognitive and a ective
dimensions. In contrast, collaborative PEB is negatively related to life satisfaction, our measure of the
cognitive dimension, but not significantly related to the other wellbeing measures. Based on this
evidence, we can answer our first research question in the a rmative. As for the second question,
our results suggest that connectedness to nature plays a moderating role in the relationship between
life satisfaction and collaborative PEBs, as the initially negative relationship is reversed when people
feel highly connected to nature.},
