**Hypotheses:** Individuals with greater Nature Relatedness (NR) are more inclined to autonomously seek information about environmental subjects, such as the impact of urban green spaces on urban heat islands. Consequently, any observed increase in the willingness to pay among the treated group may be attributed to the individuals' higher NR rather than the treatment itself.
