Description
Diana Grigsby-Toussaint and co-authors lay out, in a 2024 protocol, Project G-SPACE, a five-year study of how green space shapes children's sleep and mental health. Vegetation exposure is linked to better child mental health, but its effect on sleep is nearly unstudied, and sleep itself feeds wellbeing.
The project will recruit 250 Rhode Island children in the first three school grades. Wrist actigraphs and GPS units will objectively record sleep, activity, and daily movement through neighborhoods. Sleep diaries and questionnaires add subjective sleep quality and mental health measures. Joining the streams should reveal whether greener days make calmer nights.
