Displacement and dislocation from homes disrupt fundamental social processes necessary for optimal community functioning. Neighborhood and community social capital, collective efficacy and place attachment are social processes that may be compromised following disaster, conflict, and upheaval. A collaborative approach to the preplanning, design,…

Nasar, Jack L.; Cubukcu, Ebru – Environment and Behavior, 2011
This study used a desktop virtual environment (VE) of 15 large-scale residential streets to test the effects of environmental mystery and surprise on response. In theory, mystery and surprise should increase interest and visual appeal. For each VE, participants walked through an approach street and turned right onto a post-turn street. We designed…

Brown, Barbara B.; Werner, Carol M.; Amburgey, Jonathan W.; Szalay, Caitlin – Environment and Behavior, 2007
Guided walks near a light rail stop in downtown Salt Lake City, Utah, were examined using a 2 (gender) x 3 (route walkability: low-mixed-, or high-walkability features) design. Trained raters confirmed that more walkable segments had more traffic, environmental, and social safety; pleasing aesthetics; natural features; pedestrian amenities; and…

Peer reviewedEisemon, Thomas – Environment and Behavior, 1975
This paper considers the use of simulation to evoke citizen involvement in the design of low-cost public housing. Using this technique, citizens are able to express their preferences visually. The purposes, features, and outputs of this simulation are described, and the technique is compared with alternative strategies. (Author/MA)

Peer reviewedBaird, John C.; And Others – Environment and Behavior, 1972
Two experiments are presented on the planning of ideal towns by undergraduates. The basic approach involved a modified map-sketching technique in which subjects placed sixteen town elements into two-dimensional physical environments. Results were analyzed by information theory, cluster analysis, and multidimensional scaling. (BL)

Peer reviewedHitchcock, John; Waterhouse, Alan – Environment and Behavior, 1979
A study was conducted to determine which attributes of expressways impacted resident satisfaction of tenants, to determine the importance of these factors relative to other factors impacting satisfaction, and to identify land use implications of the findings. Expressway environments were found to have serious impact on residents of apartments in…
