• Resumen

  • A selection of papers presented at the XI Congress of Environmental Psychology (Almería, February 2011) is published in this special issue. The Congress focused on two issues: Urban Environments and Sustainability. But rather than claiming a division between them, most of the research, including the papers presented here, views these two areas as overlapping and complementing one another. Moreover, the articles selected for this issue, although they may differ in terms of topics and methodologies, all contribute to and provide solutions from the field of Environmental Psychology in order to improve human welfare by analyzing the relationship of people with their surrounding environment (natural/urban), which is one of the primary objectives of the discipline (Gifford, 2002).
