Childhood shapes lifelong wellbeing, making it crucial to understand how environmental factors impact development. This study examines the of neighbourhood greenspace quantity on trajectories emotional, behavioural and cognitive outcomes across childhood (at ages 3, 5, 7 11 years) with data from UK's Millennium Cohort Study. Using multilevel growth curve models, we assessed role in small standard areas conduct problems, hyperactivity/inattention, peer emotional symptoms ability. There was no direct association between these child at intercept (~ aged years). However, related slope both problems ability, suggesting possible benefits early years, mainly before start formal education. The highlights potential effect development, but context age. Longitudinal research tracking beyond can shed more light age-related effects

Existing studies have established a linear relationship between urban environments and adolescent health, but the combined impacts of subjective objective on multi-dimensional health status (including physical mental health) not been fully explored. Furthermore, while some examined non-linear adult research specifically focusing adolescents is sparse. Using Kunming, China, as case study, we employ Random Forest model to examine subjective/objective neighborhood physical/mental health. The results indicate that environment plays more significant role in influencing adolescents. There are generally correlations threshold effects variables adolescents' status. Specifically, distance subway station, ratio traffic safety facilities, greening view index differ. Additionally, characterized by community management, image, capital tend positively influence This study provides valuable insights for planning healthy communities, environmental interventions, promotion specific dimensions among
