Abstract

The ongoing process of urbanization has led to a concerning reduction in the accessibility and availability of green spaces within urban areas. Concurrently, the sedentary and fast-paced lifestyles commonly associated with urban living have created significant barriers between urban residents and green spaces. This study aims to comprehensively assess and model the impact of urban green spaces on the psychological well-being of residents in Lahore. To achieve this objective, a questionnaire-based survey was conducted, involving a substantial sample of 1050 respondents. The study employed regression analysis to gauge the extent to which residents interacted with urban green spaces. A structural model was generated using Smart PLS to provide a more nuanced understanding of the relationships between these variables. The findings of the study were and provided considerable information, ultimately revealing a strongly positive and statistically significant relationship between urban green spaces and the promotion of human well-being (beta = 0.717, p
