Researchers of environmental psychology have often suggested that people gain benefits from perception of natural environments, most studies have focused up either ART or people's involvement to settings such as place attachment theory. This study try to fill the gap in the literature between them by investigating the experiences of both on-site and experimental samples that shaping their cognition of the settings. This study investigated 3 different natural settings, 231 experimental and 675 on-site samples were collected. To examine the consistence of the result, participants also asked to rate their perceived level of naturalness and preference of the setting. In this study the author also tried to test the mediating role of place attachment in environmental restorative potential. The results indicate that legibility holds lower inner consistency in experimental samples, both samples recognize the more natural environments as more attached and higher percieved retorativeness. Mediating role of place attachment will be further disscussed. Together, these results help substantiate the restorative function of people’s environmental perception.
