Abstract: The research on the relationship between public participation, environmental regulation and residents’ well-being is of great significance for the scientific formulation of environmental regulation policies and the optimization of the governance environment. Using the data of journal papers collected by Web of Science and CNKI from 2006 to 2021, using CiteSpace bibliometric analysis software and combining with traditional review methods, this paper draws the following conclusions: 1) Chinese literature research hotspots have gone through three stages: the western experience discussion of public participation in environmental governance and the initial stage in China, the theoretical model analysis of public participation in environmental governance and the empirical research stage of influencing factors, the evaluation of residents’ well-being effect of environmental regulation and the specific case study of public participation in environmental regulation. English literature research initially focused on the participation of residents at the community level in environmental regulation, and then focused on the exploration of problems and influencing factors in practice. At present, it focuses on the impact of environmental regulation on residents’ well-being and environmental health inequity and big data analysis applications. 2) The academic community has not yet reached a consistent conclusion on the impact of public participation in environmental regulation and residents’ well-being. The study confirms that environmental regulation has a positive impact on residents’ health and enhances individual subjective well-being, but at the same time it exacerbates the income gap between residents and between regions. 3) The research trend shows that the research perspective changes from macro to micro, the research method changes from statistical model to spatial analysis and quasi-natural experiment method, and the variable measurement changes from single index to comprehensive index. 4) Future research needs to focus on the analysis and optimization of government response mechanism, the research on the equity of environmental regulations on residents’ well-being, and the improvement and perfection of research methods, data, and variable measurement methods.
