Does increasing biodiversity in an urban woodland setting promote positive emotional responses in humans? A stress recovery experiment using 360-degree videos of an urban woodland

Discussion Emotional responses to green space via video This research supports the notion that exposure to green space (a video of urban woodland space) reduces feelings of negative emotion (Negative Affect), but does not necessarily increase Fig 5. Changes in mean positive affect scores after the video stage by those who mentioned the flowers and those who did not.
