Measures perceived exposure to green space
Perceptions of Green Space Exposure (P-GSE)
Do people have access to greenspace?
This 5-question survey measures how much people believe they can get smarter if they work at it, which is known as a growth mindset. This survey can be used to explore relationships between a growth mindset and variables like working memory, age, or self-esteem. Past research suggests that people who reported more concern about the environment also reported perceiving more greenspace in their neighborhoods (Reives et al., 2024).

Raw data: 5 questions combined to make 1 variable (perceived greenspace). The variable's score ranges from 0-5.
Calculation:
The score is determined by averaging the scores of the 5 questions. The Likert scale ranges from 0 ("completely disagree") to 5 ("completely agree"), so the average of the scores will also range from 0-5.
