| Currently,in the context of rapid urbanization,people’s demand for a better life is becoming increasingly strong.However,behind urbanization,there are hidden problems such as urban environmental pollution and sharp reduction in green space area,posing a threat to the physical and mental health of citizens.Research in environmental psychology has shown that certain natural environments can have restorative effects on the human body,helping urban residents alleviate mental exhaustion and psychological stress.Therefore,urban green space environment plays a very important role in the physical and mental health of residents.In order to meet the current needs of urban green space development,the protection,restoration,and construction of western Sichuan forest sites in Chengdu are also in full swing.The demand for public health issues has put forward higher requirements for the protection,planning,and design of western Sichuan forest sites.However,there is currently a lack of more scientific and comprehensive research in the academic community on the restorative benefits of the forest environment in western Sichuan on the human body.Therefore,this article will adopt methods such as literature review,field research,questionnaire survey,and physiological indicator measurement.Taking Donglin Art Village as an example,based on the differences in the main landscape elements in the space,five typical forest spatial environments will be selected as the research objects to monitor their environmental indicators,and practical research will be conducted on the restorative benefits of different forest spatial environments on the human body in western Sichuan,Finally,based on the research findings,corresponding forest environment optimization strategies are proposed.The main achievements obtained in this article are as follows:(1)Through on-site measurement and data analysis of various physical environmental indicators,it was found that there are certain differences in the physical environmental characteristics of different spaces in the western Sichuan forest area.Among them,the comprehensive environment of the bamboo forest space performs best,and the comprehensive environment of the western Sichuan forest area is significantly better than that of the urban square environment.(2)By analyzing and studying the environmental preferences and perception restoration situation of various places,it is found that the environmental preferences and perception restoration effect of forest environment are better than that of urban square environment.The human body’s preference for different spatial environments varies,and the perception restoration effect of different spatial environments on the human body also varies.The human body’s preference for bamboo forest space is the highest,and the perception restoration effect of bamboo forest space is the most obvious.By analyzing the correlation between environmental preference values and perceived restoration values,it is found that there is a significant positive correlation between the perceived restoration effect and the degree of environmental preference,that is,a higher degree of environmental preference will lead to better perceived restoration effects.(3)By analyzing and studying the changes in physiological and psychological indicators of the human body before and after experiencing various environments,it is concluded that experiencing the forest environment in western Sichuan can have a significant recovery effect on the physiological and psychological aspects of the human body,make the human body feel relaxed,alleviate anxiety,and the recovery effect of the forest space environment is significantly stronger than that of the urban square environment.Among the five types of spaces in the forest,bamboo forest space and shrub grass space have the best restorative effects on human physiology and psychology.By analyzing the correlation between changes in physiological and psychological indicators,it is found that there is a clear correlation between changes in physiological and psychological indicators,that is,changes in the emotional state of the human body can cause changes in physiological indicators.(4)By analyzing the correlation between physical environmental characteristic indicators and restorative benefits indicators,it is concluded that the restorative benefits of the environment on the human body are not only influenced by landscape elements in the spatial environment,but also by physical environmental factors.From the perspective of improving the restorative benefits of the western Sichuan forest site to the human body,corresponding planning and design strategies are proposed for optimizing the forest site environment in Donglin Art Village. |
