A dose-response curve describing the relationship between tree cover density and landscape preference (2015, background): “…previous studies have shown that landscape preference is positively related to the presence of trees or greater tree canopy size (Hernandez & Hidalgo, 2005; Kenwick et al., 2009; Kuo et al., 1998; Lohr & Pearson-Mims, 2006; Purcell & Lamb, 1998; Sommer & Summit, 1995; van den Berg et al., 2003).”
Health effects of viewing landscapes - Landscape types in environmental psychology (2007, background): “16 Lohr and Pearson-Mims (2006) Urban background with trees with varying canopy form (spreading, rounded and conical) Positive emotional responses to urban with trees versus urban with inanimate object.”
Place value: place quality and its impact on health, social, economic and environmental outcomes (2018, background): “…preference and restoration Viewing natural environments improvement in mood, concentration, restoration from mental fatigue and anxiety-based stress lohr and Pearson-Mims (2006) emotional responses to trees and tree forms urban scenes with trees, and tree shape (rounded not conical) Positive…”
Perception and preference of trees: A psychological contribution to tree species selection in urban areas (2016, background): “Research on self-reported acceptance of trees in urban environments has shown that opinions on nearby street trees are generally positive (Schroeder et al., 2006) and that people prefer scenes that have trees more than scenes that have inanimate objects (Lohr and Pearson-Mims, 2006).”
Plastic mulching in agriculture. Trading short-term agronomic benefits for long-term soil degradation? (2016, background): “Psychological studies found evidence that people prefer diversified and protective landscapes that are rich in natural elements (e.g. Kaplan, 1995; Lohr and Pearson-Mims, 2006).”
The effects of urban retail greenery on consumer experience: Reviewing the evidence from a restorative perspective (2010, background): “Quite often, these stressreducing effects are claimed to be rooted in our shared human evolutionary past, during which early humans were deeply dependent on nature for their subsistence and survival (see especially Ulrich, 1993; also Heerwagen and Orians, 1993; Lohr and Pearson-Mims, 2006).”
The Role of Nature in Coping with Psycho-Physiological Stress: A Literature Review on Restorativeness (2014, background): “more positive emotions (such as friendliness) and fewer negative emotions (such as sadness) when viewing urban scenes with trees than when viewing the same scenes with inanimate objects [42].”
Health benefits of nature experience: Psychological, social and cultural processes (2011, background): “Some independent research has addressed the theoretical claims, as with particular tree forms as cues of suitable habitat (e.g., Summit and Sommer 1999; Lohr and Pearson-Mims 2006).”
