• More green space is linked to less stress in deprived communities: Evidence from salivary cortisol patterns (2012, background): “Thirdly, peole often deliberately seek environments that they find attractive or relaxing, to allow them to recover from demanding situations nd tasks, and natural environments are frequently sought for this urpose (Grahn et al., 2010; Hartig, 2007, 2008; Kaplan, 1995; aplan & Kaplan, 1989).”
• The Relationship Between Perceived Greenness and Perceived Restorativeness of University Campuses and Student-Reported Quality of Life (2016, background): “Research suggests that vulnerable populations are more likely to seek out green restorative environments for resilience (Tidball, 2012); thus, a restorative environment could be considered a health resource (Hartig, 2007) for college students experiencing stress.”
• Health benefits of nature experience: Psychological, social and cultural processes (2011, background): “Over time, inadequate restoration can translate into problems with mental and physical health (Hartig 2007).”
• Where to put your best foot forward: Psycho-physiological responses to walking in natural and urban environments (2016, background): “Our study was concerned with the potential instorative effects in individuals who are not stressed or cognitively fatigued (Hartig, 2007), and used a comparator urban environment”
• Preference for Restorative Situations: Interactive Effects of Attentional State, Activity-in-Environment, and Social Context (2010, background): “Nevertheless, despite their limited duration, such activities can cumulatively play an important role in effective functioning and well-being (Hartig, 2007a).”
• Exploring pathways linking greenspace to health: Theoretical and methodological guidance (2017, background): “, with more greenness) during periods when restoration can occur will cumulatively realize greater health benefits than he or she would do by spending the time in environments of lesser restorative quality (Hartig, 2007).”
• Preference and Relative Importance for Environmental Attributes of Neighbourhood Open Space in Older People (2010, background): “This may occur by supporting physical activity such as walking (eg Cohen et al, 2007; Giles-Corti et al, 2005; Wen et al, 2007), offering mental health through restorative experiences (Hartig, 2007; Kaplan and Kaplan, 1989; Orsega-Smith et al, 2004), and through providing opportunities for positive ”
• Activity, exercise and the planning and design of outdoor spaces (2013, background): “, 2009) has had a considerable impact, especially in the North American context. A key issue highlighted early in this burgeoning research area was the difference between walking for recreation and walking for transport, or utilitarianwalking (Sallis & Owen, 2002).
