Thank you very much for reviewing for Environmental Psychology Open. When you prepare your review, we recommend that you first provide a brief summary of how you understood the manuscript under consideration and a general evaluation, before describing any (major and minor) issues that you see with regard to the manuscript. The questions below may be helpful in guiding your review. Please treat the manuscript confidentially and review the paper as you would like your papers to be reviewed.

Please note that all reviews for EPO are published along with the final article. Hence, we ask you to provide your review as text (not as annotations to the manuscript PDF) and to acknowledge any sources you use, just like you would in any academic paper. Also, we would like to encourage you to state your name in your review (i.e., "sign" it), but this is entirely optional.

Introduction/Background

• Has the presented research been adequately embedded into a review of previous research?

• Do the authors refer to the literature most relevant to the research question at hand?

• Are research questions well motivated/hypotheses adequately justified? Is the reasoning coherent?

• Is the contribution of the present research to the existing literature made explicit?

• Have all scientific terms and concepts been explicitly defined?

Methods

• Is the research design suited to address the research question at hand?

• Is the procedure described at a level of detail that allows replication by others?

• Is the operationalization of psychological constructs described in a clear way?

• Is the sample and sampling process described at a sufficient level of detail?

• This includes the description of sample characteristics, design, measurement tools, operationalization, study procedure, and data analysis. The authors should report all data exclusions and how they determined their sample sizes.

Results

• Is the chosen analysis strategy clearly described and suitable for addressing the research question?

• Are all tables and figures necessary, informative, and comprehensible?

• Is the description of results separated from their interpretation?

• Is the description of data and statistical hypothesis tests complete? Are all relevant tests described and do these descriptions include test statistics, exact p-values, and effect sizes?

Discussion

• Are all conclusions corroborated by the presented material? Do they follow from the results?

• Are speculations acknowledged as such?

• Are results integrated into the existing literature?

• Are the limitations of the reported study and the generalizability of the results to other populations and situations adequately discussed?

Practical impact

• Have the implications of the present work for the application of environmental psychology, practitioners, and the general public been made explicit?

• Are these implications specific and do they follow from the presented results?

• Are limitations of applicability discussed as well?

Open science

• Have the authors reported all measures, conditions, data exclusions, and how they determined their sample sizes?

• Do you know whether the authors preregistered their data? If yes, can you access the preregistration? Are there any unmentioned deviations from the preregistration?

• Do the authors make explicit which of their analyses and results are confirmatory and which are exploratory?

• Have the authors shared their data? Can you access and understand the dataset?
