Greenspace quality and proximity are stronger predictors of mental health than quantity or access
Compared models of poor mental health with distinct urban greenspace characteristics. • Proxies for greenspace quality and proximity emerged as the strongest predictors. • Greenspace quantity and access were weaker in explaining variation in mental health. • Findings highlight the need to prioritise urban greenspace quality and proximity. As evidence grows for the mental health benefits of urban greenspaces, understanding which specific character…
The relative effects of access to public greenspace and private gardens on mental health
Although the beneficial effects of urban greenspace on mental health are widely accepted, the comparative effects of public greenspace and private (domestic) gardens on mental health are poorly understood. Here, an assessment is provided of the effect of local public greenspace on a person’s mental health for those with and without a private garden in Britain. Individual level data on private garden ownership and mental health status are obtained…
A systematic map of research exploring the effect of greenspace on mental health
The past 35 years has seen an accumulation of empirical evidence suggesting a positive association between greenspace and mental health. Existing reviews of evidence are narrow in scope, and do not adequately represent the broad range of disciplines working in this field. This study is the first systematic map of studies investigating greenspace effects on mental health. A total of 6059 papers were screened for their relevance, 276 of which met i…
