“…Perceived overload and emotional anxiety contribute to the continuous distraction and chaos in modern society [1], particularly as urban populations spend significant time adapting to rapidly changing societies and fulfilling essential tasks in their studies or work. This has resulted in the prevalence of chronic diseases among many modern individuals.…”

The benefits of green spaces as a public health resource for people's physical and mental well-being are being supported by a growing body of evidence. While most studies only employ limited-duration testing to examine a specific type of green space, our utilization of these resources is continuous and ever-changing. This study takes a unique approach by embracing a continuous green perspective, integrating the beauty of external forest greenery with the concept of vertical green buildings indoors. Using the Recovery Results Scale (ROS), 78 college students were examined for changes in markers while continuously watching a green landscape under stress, with a focus on exploring the relationship between EEG data and stress recovery. The results indicate that β waves, θ waves, RAB, and ROS indicators have a temporal influence, and the trends of physiological and psychological indicators change over time. The beta wave and reactive oxygen species (ROS) readings increase over time. The θ wave peaks at T2 and then gradually decreases, while RAB also decreases over time. EEG channels in the β wave (FP2 and T4), α wave (FP1, F3, F4), and θ wave (FP1, T5, F3, and T6) exhibit significant variations across three time periods.The research findings provide valuable insights into promoting perceptual recovery among adolescents in a continuous green environment. They encourage natural participation and interaction from a dynamic perspective to activate the green conditions of the temporal main effect. The study offers guidance for urban environmental planning and management to create a healthy environment that fosters positive emotions.
