As urbanization accelerates and the built environment becomes more complex, impacting natural environments as well, understanding how environmental factors influence working memory is becoming increasingly critical. This review synthesizes findings from 34 empirical studies investigating the effects of different environmental settings, ranging from urban environments to natural landscapes on working memory performance or development. We categorize these findings into three key themes that reflect how this relation has been studied: Dynamic Environmental Exposure, which refers to settings where individuals actively engage with their surroundings; Passive Environmental Exposure, which encompasses studies where participants remain stationary while being exposed to environmental stimuli; and Neighborhood Characteristics, which include broader aspects of our living environments that shape daily experiences and may influence working memory over extended periods. The review discusses the findings with reference to ecological validity of experimental setups, the challenge of describing physical settings, and future implications of the research, while also encouraging interdisciplinary collaboration among architects, urban planners, psychologists, and neuroscientists. This work also contributes to the growing discourse on how the design of our physical settings effects cognition, thereby health and well-being.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48439,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Psychology","volume":"107 ","pages":"Article 102763"},"PeriodicalIF":7.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145097466","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One possible way to address this issue is through carbon offset donations. While ‘nudge’ behaviour change techniques are promising, they have also been critiqued. We conducted an exploratory online experiment with four e-commerce checkout prototypes to whether ‘Nudge+’ approaches (which combine reflection and automatic processing) are more effective than default nudge or information provision to promote offset donations. Participants (n = 184, members of a UK university) were assigned to one of four groups: Control (no treatment), Default (pre-selected options), Information, and Nudge+ (combined default and information). The findings reveal that Defaults and Nudge + significantly increase donation rates compared to the Control, but Nudge+ was no more effective than Default alone. Information alone did not significantly impact donations. Positive attitudes toward carbon offsets and higher concern about climate change did not moderate intervention effects. This study highlights the dominance of Type 1 processing while acknowledging the added value of providing reflective opportunities, offering insights for designing effective behavioural interventions to promote sustainable e-commerce practices. Notably, there is no need to inhibit Type 2 reasoning to enhance nudge effectiveness, as individuals predominantly rely on Type 1 processing. However, participants apparently valued the opportunity to engage in Type 2 reasoning, suggesting that a blend of automatic nudges with reflective information can be effective. Further research is needed to generalise these findings across broader populations and settings.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48439,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Psychology","volume":"107 ","pages":"Article 102758"},"PeriodicalIF":7.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145119164","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigates the role of environmental attitudes and attentional processes using eye-tracking technology during a decision-making task that involves real trade-offs between personal financial rewards and environmental consequences. We found partial evidence that stronger environmental attitudes – derived from the Campbell paradigm, but not from biospheric values – predicted an attentional prioritization of environmental information (i.e., carbon emissions). Specifically, stronger Campbellian attitudes were associated with a higher proportion of fixation time on this information, and an increasing likelihood of fixating this information first once participants became familiar with the task. However, the former effect may partly reflect gender-related differences in ecological considerations. The attention-behavior link appears context-dependent, influenced by factors such as the magnitude of financial incentives and environmental stakes. Our findings suggest that, while attentional processes may play a significant role in less financially rewarding pro-environmental decisions, they do not predict those with high financial stakes. These insights underscore the importance of considering both attentional dynamics and decision context in developing strategies to promote pro-environmental choices.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48439,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Psychology","volume":"107 ","pages":"Article 102776"},"PeriodicalIF":7.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145159515","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From this new perspective, we conducted an exploratory secondary analysis of existing data from an online study (<em>N</em> = 1160) featuring the Work for Environmental Protection Task (WEPT), which allows participants to exert real cognitive effort in exchange for donations to a pre-selected pro-environmental organization. We found that after performing the WEPT, participants were more likely to donate additional bonus money to their assigned organization compared to an alternative organization, suggesting a higher subjective value of the former. To assess the robustness of this finding, we conducted a high-powered, preregistered confirmatory study (<em>N</em> = 801). We found that the differential pattern in the donation decisions replicated with a larger effect size and was also consistent with self-reported subjective value of the organizations. These findings indicate that spending effort for the benefit of a pro-environmental organization can increase the value assigned to that organization. This resonates with the idea that effort is more than just a barrier and can have a positive effect on pro-environmental behavior.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48439,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Psychology","volume":"107 ","pages":"Article 102771"},"PeriodicalIF":7.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145109308","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results at the within-person level showed that increased engagement in promotive environmental voice (i.e., voicing suggestions) predicted subsequently higher levels of environmental attitudes. In contrast to our expectations, increased prohibitive environmental voice (i.e., expressing concerns) predicted subsequently lower levels of environmental attitudes. Furthermore, increased promotive environmental voice, but not prohibitive environmental voice, predicted subsequently higher levels of green organizational climate. Environmental attitudes and green organizational climate were not significantly related to subsequent environmental voice.

Psychological ratings (acoustic quality, overall restorative potential) and physiological responses (changes in skin conductance level as a biomarker for stress) were assessed. The results simultaneously highlight the beneficial links of natural land- and soundscapes, and the adverse links of built environments and anthropogenic noise, with restoration: (1) The highest restorative potential was observed in scenarios where both auditory and visual features were natural (e.g., a forest or lake featuring birdsong and wind); (2) Introducing a built environment and/or an anthropogenic soundscape decreased restorative potential; (3) The lowest psychological and physiological restoration was observed in built spaces with anthropogenic soundscapes; and (4) Increasing sound pressure level was associated with lower restorative potential only for anthropogenic soundscapes, but not for natural ones.
