The Impact of Supervised Physical Activity in Urban Green Spaces on Mental Well-Being Among Middle-Aged Adults: A Quasi-Experimental Study
In recent decades, extensive evidence has indicated that green spaces and physical activity (PA) are associated with mental health, while limited research has explored the combined effects of supervised PA in urban green spaces. To address the research gap, this study examines whether supervised PA within green spaces improves mental health among middle-aged adults (45–65 years) through a quasi-experimental longitudinal study developed as part of…
