Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- People inevitably deplete adaptive resources in everyday life. Persistent failure to restore resources that have become depleted will ultimately harm mental and physical health. Restoration proceeds more effectively in some environments than in others, due not only to a relative absence of demands on already depleted resources, but also to environmental characteristics that promote restoration of the depleted resources. Knowledge of the restoration-promoting characteristics of environments can serve people working in diverse fields, from architecture to nature conservation to transportation and urban planning.
