  1. We use the sample of all participant street image ratings responding to 10 positive affect questions. This table displays OLS regressions results of average change in negative emotions resulting from an 8% increase in street green coverage. The results are estimated running Eq. (1) on the responses to the positive affect questions. Mixed regression estimates without and with controls are presented in column 1 and 2 respectively. Control variables include all the observed participant’s characteristics: gender, age, educational level, income, country of residence, allergies to plants, pollen or insects, and frequency of visiting a park and the date of the survey.
  2. Robust standard errors in parentheses.
  3. *P < 0.1, **P < 0.05, ***P < 0.01.
