<p>The present study aimed to investigate if there are differences between environmental preference, attachment and the perception of restorative qualities in natural and urban landscapes in the Mexican and Chilean population. The sample consisted of university students (N = 200, M = 22.36, SD = 3.59), who were shown a series of natural and urban environmental stimuli accompanied by a Likert scale of ordinal character with six response codes with an α above .8. We found a favorable factorial structure (V = 64.67%), and significant differences between the means between both countries, showing a greater identification by the natural environments in both countries, and significant relationships between attachment and restoration towards natural environments. The ANOVA analysis produced nine significant factors in relation to nationality (p &lt;0.01), and simple and multiple linear regression models were obtained that explain above 50% of the variance.</p>
