Longitudinal Study of Neighborhood Social Event Attendance at Renovated Parks and Changes in Sleep, Stress, and Well-being
8 juillet 2026 mis à jour par: Terry Huang, City University of New York, School of Public Health
Community-engaged Intervention to Optimize the Impact of Renovated Neighborhood Parks on Community Wellbeing
The goal of this study is to learn whether participating in community social and cultural events in renovated neighborhood parks can improve sleep, stress, mood, and overall well-being in adults aged 18 and older who live near participating parks.
The main questions the study aims to answer are:
- Does participation in community park events lead to improvements over time in sleep, stress, mood, and other aspects of well-being?
- Are greater levels of event participation associated with greater improvements in these outcomes?
Participants will:
- Wear a wearable ring device (Oura Ring) most of the time for about six months to measure sleep and physical health indicators
- Attend free community events at or near their neighborhood park, such as social, cultural, or physical activity programs
- Complete online surveys at the beginning and end of the study about well-being and mental health
- Complete brief weekly surveys on mood and study park use
- Attend two in-person visits for basic physical measurements (e.g., height, weight, blood pressure) and device setup/return

Expérimental: Participation in Community Park Events
Participants are adults living near participating neighborhood parks who are enrolled in a study evaluating the health and well-being effects of participation in community-based park events.
Participants are encouraged and incentivized to attend free social, cultural, and physical activity events over the study period.
In addition, participants wear a wearable device and complete surveys to assess changes in sleep, physiological indicators, and psychosocial well-being over time.
|
Participants are encouraged to attend free community-based events, including social, cultural, and physical activity programming held in their local neighborhood parks.
These events are organized and implemented by the research team in collaboration with local vendors and are designed to promote community engagement and support health and well-being.
Actual attendance may vary across participants, and participation is supported through incentives.
