Research Interests:

My research interests mainly focus on environmental psychology, particularly from a cross-cultural perspective, investigating the interaction between humans and their surroundings. My research spans two domains: 1) Impact of the Physical Environment: I study how natural and urban settings influence psychological well-being; 2) Promoting Pro-Environmental Behaviors: I explore how to encourage individuals’ pro-environmental behaviors for the benefit of the environment.
