Longitudinal Study of Neighborhood Social Event Attendance at Renovated Parks and Changes in Sleep, Stress, and Well-being (NCT07699588)

Community-engaged Intervention to Optimize the Impact of Renovated Neighborhood Parks on Community Wellbeing

๐Ÿ”ต Active, Not Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic ๐Ÿง  Behavioral & Psychological Program Sponsor: City University of New York, School of Public Health

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

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: 1. Does participation in community park events lead to improvements over time in sleep, stress, mood, and other aspects of well-being? 2. 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
