'''Barth, M., Masson, T., Fritsche, I., Fielding, K., & Smith, J. R. (2021). Collective responses to global challenges: The social psychology of pro-environmental action. Journal of Environmental Psychology, 74, 101562-. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvp.2021.101562 '''

The source provides an extensive overview of how social identity processes influence pro-environmental action. This contribution is significant because it addresses several critical aspects that need to be represented or added in the current Wikipedia article on Environmental Psychology. The Wikipedia article primarily focuses on individual-level psychological processes and behaviors. The new source emphasizes the importance of collective action and the role of social identity in motivating pro-environmental behavior. This perspective is crucial for understanding how group dynamics can influence environmental actions.

'''Inauen, J., Contzen, N., Frick, V., Kadel, P., Keller, J., Kollmann, J., Mata, J., & van Valkengoed, A. M. (2021). Environmental Issues Are Health Issues: Making a Case and Setting an Agenda for Environmental Health Psychology. European Psychologist, 26(3), 219–229. https://doi.org/10.1027/1016-9040/a000438 '''

The article focuses on interdisciplinary research on environmental changes and their implications for human systems. It emphasizes the link between environmental issues and human health, which will provide a comprehensive review of how environmental factors such as climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution directly affect human health, which was not discussed in the current Wikipedia entry on environmental psychology. The article's focus on integrating behavior change theory into environmental health psychology can enhance the theoretical framework section of the Wikipedia entry, providing readers with a deeper understanding of how psychological theories are applied to environmental issues.

'''Morren, M., & Grinstein, A. (2016). Explaining environmental behavior across borders: A meta-analysis. Journal of Environmental Psychology, 47, 91–106. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvp.2016.05.003 '''

The Wikipedia article briefly touches on health-related environmental psychology but lacks in-depth coverage. The new source highlights the bidirectional relationship between environmental issues and human health, emphasizing that environmental health psychology integrates environmental and health psychology to address these challenges comprehensively. This perspective can be added to sections discussing the scope and applications of environmental psychology. One of the current gaps that we experience is that there are limited discussion on behavior change interventions within environmental psychology. The source provides a detailed analysis of behavior change theories and intervention approaches, emphasizing the importance of integrating these strategies to promote sustainable behaviors.

'''Tam, K.-P., & Milfont, T. L. (2020). Towards cross-cultural environmental psychology: A state-of-the-art review and recommendations. Journal of Environmental Psychology, 71, 101474-. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvp.2020.101474 '''

The article highlights the influence of cultural context in environmental psychology. The article discusses the significance of cultural differences in shaping human-environment interactions and calls for a culturally informed understanding of these interactions. The source provides analyses showing the lack of cultural diversity in environmental psychology research and offers recommendations for increasing cross-cultural collaborations.

'''Zitars, J., Spadafore, B., Coulombe, S., Riemer, M., Dreyer, B. C., & Whitney, S. (2021). Understanding the psycho-environmental potential functions of a green building to promote employee health, wellbeing and productivity: A theoretical perspective. Building and Environment, 205, 108268-. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.buildenv.2021.108268 '''

The existing Wikipedia article on environmental psychology does not clearly explain the relationship between urban infrastructure and psychological health. This essay goes into great detail about how green buildings' environmental elements and design improve worker health, happiness, and productivity. It also highlights the psycho-environmental benefits of green buildings, such as enhanced air quality, natural lighting, and accessible design features that support physical and mental well-being. The Wikipedia article does not use many real-world examples of environmental psychology concepts in professional contexts. The article can offer helpful advice on creating workplace interventions that improve worker productivity and well-being by implementing green building concepts.
