Although the role of the home environment in the development of prosocial behaviour in childhood is well-established, the existing research has focused on the emotional microclimate of the home. We do not know whether the physical home environment has a role to play too. The present study aims to fill this gap. It uses data from a large, nationally representative birth cohort survey in the UK, tracking the trajectories of prosocial behaviour in children across ages 3, 5, 7 and 11 years as a function of three constructs derived from the Home Observation Measurement of the Environment Short Form (HOME-SF), assessed at age 3 years: physical organisation of the home, mother's emotional and verbal responsivity, and mother's use of harsh discipline. Prosocial behaviour was assessed via a parent-reported subscale of the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire. The findings, which were robust to adjustment for sex, ethnicity, cognitive ability, special educational needs, neighbourhood environment, family income, family structure, maternal mental health, maternal education and religiosity, showed that all three aspects of the home environment were associated with prosocial behaviour. However, when controlling for all three simultaneously, physical organisation ceased to be a significant predictor of prosocial behaviour although the two measures of the home's emotional environment retained their significance. This indicates that, compared to the physical, the emotional climate of the home has a more substantial impact on children's prosocial behaviour. It also suggests that the physical and the emotional context of the home are strongly interrelated, with aspects of emotional harshness possibly mediating the effects of the home's physical disorganisation.

尽管家庭环境对儿童亲社会行为的发展所起的作用已得到公认,但现有的研究主要集中在家庭的情感小气候方面。我们不知道物理家庭环境是否也有作用。本研究旨在填补这一空白。研究使用了英国一项具有全国代表性的大型出生队列调查的数据,追踪了儿童在 3 岁、5 岁、7 岁和 11 岁时的亲社会行为轨迹,这些轨迹与 3 岁时评估的家庭环境观察测量简表(HOME-SF)中的三项指标有关:家庭的物质组织、母亲的情感和语言反应能力以及母亲使用严厉管教的情况。亲社会行为通过家长报告的 "优势与困难问卷 "分量表进行评估。研究结果表明,家庭环境的所有三个方面都与亲社会行为有关。然而,当同时对这三个方面进行控制时,物理组织不再是预测亲社会行为的一个重要因素,尽管家庭情感环境的两个测量指标仍具有显著性。这表明,与物质环境相比,家庭情感环境对儿童亲社会行为的影响更大。这也表明,家庭的物质环境和情感环境密切相关,情感环境的恶劣程度可能会对家庭物质环境的混乱所产生的影响起到中介作用。

While people across the world are experiencing hotter summers, there is still a considerable number of people who believe that climate change is a hoax. It thus raises the question of whether the experience of local temperature anomalies would influence people's beliefs about climate change conspiracy. To address this question, we conducted a two-wave longitudinal study with participants from the U.S. (Study 1) and mainland China (Study 2), respectively. We expect that the experience of temperature anomalies would serve as a cognitive proxy that counteracts the hoax conspiracy narratives and thus would be negatively related to belief in such narratives. We further explored whether this negative association would be related to less perceived psychological distance, stronger negative emotions, and more climate change-related information exposure; and whether it would be weaker among people who tended to interpret things in a conspiracist manner (i.e., conspiracy mentality). In Study 1, our results support the hypothesized links cross-sectionally and longitudinally on the subjective experience of hotter summer, except for climate change-related information exposure. In Study 2, we found only cross-sectional associations between the constructs, except for climate change-related information exposure. Lastly, we found mixed evidence regarding the moderating role of conspiracy mentality between the studies. Our findings provide initial support that climate change conspiracy beliefs are malleable to people's subjective experience of temperature anomalies. The happening of temperature anomalies could be a crucial opportunity for promoting scientific understanding of climate change.

虽然世界各地的人们都经历了更加炎热的夏季,但仍有相当多的人认为气候变化是一个骗局。这就提出了一个问题:当地气温异常的经历是否会影响人们对气候变化阴谋的看法。为了解决这个问题,我们分别对来自美国(研究 1)和中国大陆(研究 2)的参与者进行了两波纵向研究。我们预计,气温异常的经历将作为一种认知代理,抵消骗局阴谋叙事,从而与对此类叙事的信念呈负相关。我们进一步探讨了这种负相关是否会与较小的心理距离感、较强的负面情绪和较多的气候变化相关信息接触有关;以及这种负相关是否会在倾向于以阴谋论方式解释事物(即阴谋心态)的人中较弱。在研究 1 中,除了与气候变化相关的信息接触外,我们的研究结果在横向和纵向上都支持关于更炎热夏季的主观体验的假设联系。在研究 2 中,除了与气候变化相关的信息接触外,我们只发现了各构念之间的横向联系。最后,我们还发现,在不同的研究中,阴谋心态的调节作用证据不一。我们的研究结果初步证明,气候变化阴谋论信念可随人们对气温异常的主观体验而改变。气温异常的发生可能是促进科学理解气候变化的一个重要契机。

导言:研究表明,居住环境对心理健康(MWB)有一定的影响,但关于研究生宿舍和心理健康的研究却很少。密歇根大学芒格研究生宿舍(简称 "芒格")位于美国密歇根州安阿伯市,为学生提供了一个位于校园中心的住宿地点、宽敞的公共区域以及包含六到七人共享生活空间的住宅单元,每个单元都有自己的私人卧室和浴室。这项采用多种方法的准实验性研究比较了芒格(124 人)和非芒格(132 人)研究生住户自我报告的 MWB,确定了住户认为会影响 MWB 的设计元素,并探讨了这些设计元素对住户 MWB 的影响。我们通过虚拟方式向 2295 名 UM 研究生(618 名 Munger 居民,1677 名居住在当地其他地方的居民)发放了一份调查问卷,其中包括一个现有的 MWB 量表(三个分量表:该量表由现有的 MWB 量表(三个分量表:注意力功能指数、积极和消极情绪量表以及社会联系量表)以及有关设计元素和 MWB 的开放式问题组成。使用多元线性回归法比较了(447 个回答中的)256 个已完成回答的 MWB 量表和分量表得分,并考虑了人口、学术和居住特征。对 236 份完整的开放式回答进行了定量内容分析,以确定和比较与小型工程包相关的设计元素的频率。结果与非芒格居民相比,芒格居民的最低工作负荷(p < .001)、注意力功能(p = .004)、积极和消极情绪(p = .001)以及社会联系(p = .002)均显著降低。内容分析显示,居民认为有 13 种设计元素会影响小型工作场所。芒格的便利设施和非芒格单元的私密空间和互动空间都对 MWB 产生了积极影响。与非芒格住户相比,芒格住户报告的设计对最低工作负担的负面影响更多,而正面影响更少。尽管各组别中报告的对最低工作负担有负面影响的设计因素主要与室内环境质量和控制不佳(如照明、温度、通风)以及社交活动有关、结论根据住户的说法,芒格慷慨的共享设施和自然采光的公共区域并不能弥补住户所感受到的无窗私人卧室、室内环境质量不佳、无法控制照明、温度和通风以及随机分配室友的高密度居住所带来的负面 MWB 影响。研究结果对未来研究生住房和多单元住房的设计者、规划者、开发者和政策制定者都有启发意义,同时也为现有的住房管理提出了支持小型工程建筑的建议。

In-situ redevelopment policies, involving the construction of new apartment-style housing at original slum sites, have become a widespread approach to housing improvement in India. While much scholarly attention has focused on potential economic, administrative, and health impacts of such policies, the exploration of socio-cultural consequences has only recently gained prominence. Employing grounded theory methods and qualitative interview data from women residents in three housing settlements – one awaiting redevelopment, another redeveloped 2.5 years ago, and the third redeveloped 8.5 years ago – this study scrutinizes the socio-cultural impacts on women transitioning from slums to apartment-style housing. Socio-cultural impacts unfold in three overarching themes: spatial affordances of slum settlements for social life, experienced erasures in redeveloped settlements, and the social gains resulting from redevelopment. Findings from this study highlight the significance of interstitial semi-private spaces in slum settlements, acting as critical zones for social connection and cultural expression for women. Conversely, redeveloped settlements exhibit spatial erasures and a shift toward increased isolation. The elimination of interstitial spaces, coupled with an inability to modify the fixed housing structures in redeveloped houisng, contributes to social atomization and a fragmented sense of community post-redevelopment. This study underscores the intricate interplay between spatial configurations and the socio-cultural fabric of communities undergoing redevelopment.

原地重建政策涉及在贫民窟原址建造新的公寓式住房,已成为印度改善住房的一种普遍方法。虽然许多学者的注意力都集中在此类政策对经济、行政和健康的潜在影响上,但对社会文化后果的探讨直到最近才开始受到重视。本研究采用基础理论方法和定性访谈数据,从三个住宅区(一个等待重建,另一个在 2.5 年前重建,第三个在 8.5 年前重建)的女性居民那里,仔细研究了从贫民窟过渡到公寓式住宅对女性的社会文化影响。社会文化影响主要体现在三个方面:贫民窟住区对社会生活的空间承受能力、重建住区中的经验侵蚀以及重建带来的社会收益。研究结果强调了贫民窟半私人空间的重要性,这些空间是妇女进行社会联系和文化表达的重要区域。与此相反,重建后的居住区则表现出空间上的侵蚀和向更加孤立的方向转变。间隙空间的消失,再加上无法改变重建房屋的固定住房结构,造成了重建后的社会原子化和社区意识支离破碎。这项研究强调了空间配置与重建社区的社会文化结构之间错综复杂的相互作用。

Public housing provides low-income households with affordable housing. The few studies of young public housing residents have focused on the negative aspects of these residential environments, such as the presence of economic hardship or substance abuse. Few studies have looked at the possible positive influence of public housing on the lives of the young people who live there. This qualitative study explores the influence of housing and neighborhood on the well-being and personal projects of young people living in public housing. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 30 young people aged 14 to 20 living in public housing in a large city in Quebec, Canada. A thematic analysis led to the identification of five themes that describe the components of the residential environment that influence young people's well-being and personal projects: 1) parks, playgrounds and nature, 2) services and activities, 3) privacy, 4) relations with the neighborhood; and 5) the quality of the built environment. Implications for environmental psychologists and for improving public policies and supporting the well-being of young people living in public housing are discussed.

公共住房为低收入家庭提供了经济适用房。关于公共住房青年居民的研究很少,主要集中在这些居住环境的消极方面,如经济困难或药物滥用。很少有研究关注公共住房对居住在那里的年轻人的生活可能产生的积极影响。本定性研究探讨了住房和邻里关系对居住在公共住房中的年轻人的福祉和个人项目的影响。研究人员对居住在加拿大魁北克省一个大城市公共住房中的 30 名 14 至 20 岁的年轻人进行了半结构式访谈。通过主题分析,确定了五个主题,描述了影响青少年福祉和个人计划的居住环境组成部分:1) 公园、操场和大自然;2) 服务和活动;3) 隐私;4) 与邻里的关系;5) 建筑环境的质量。本研究还讨论了对环境心理学家以及改善公共政策和支持居住在公共住房中的年轻人的福祉的影响。

The home represents the most psychologically, emotionally, and behaviorally important place in most people's lives. Although previous research has found that people are most strongly attached to their home, relative to other geographic scales (e.g., neighborhood), there is little research investigating the predictors of this emotional bond. This paper reports the results of a pair of studies that sought to identify the psychological factors most strongly associated with home attachment. In Study 1, participants (n = 285) provided written descriptions of the psychological benefits and costs they experience in their home. Content analysis revealed a number of common themes in these responses. Of these, home attachment was predicted positively by descriptions of the home's restorative properties and negatively by descriptions of social conflict and a lack of adequate space. In Study 2, a new sample of participants (n = 375) evaluated their home on Likert scale items modeled on the key themes of Study 1, which were then used to predict both home and neighborhood attachment. Here, restorative emotional experiences, positive social interactions, and an adequate amount of physical space were all uniquely predictive of home attachment. This pair of studies provide convergent evidence for the psychological features of the home most predictive of attachment.

在大多数人的生活中,家是心理、情感和行为上最重要的地方。尽管以往的研究发现,相对于其他地理范围(如邻里关系),人们对家的依恋最为强烈,但很少有研究调查这种情感纽带的预测因素。本文报告了两项研究的结果,这两项研究旨在找出与对家的依恋关系最密切相关的心理因素。在研究 1 中,参与者(n = 285)以书面形式描述了他们在家中体验到的心理益处和代价。内容分析揭示了这些回答中的一些共同主题。其中,对家的修复特性的描述对家庭依恋有积极的预测作用,而对社会冲突和缺乏足够空间的描述则对家庭依恋有消极的预测作用。在研究 2 中,一个新的参与者样本(n = 375)根据研究 1 中的关键主题,用李克特量表项目对他们的家进行了评估,然后用来预测对家和邻里的依恋。在这里,恢复性情感体验、积极的社会互动和充足的物理空间都是预测家庭依恋的独特因素。这两项研究为最能预测依恋的家庭心理特征提供了一致的证据。

This study addresses the urgent need to decrease meat consumption by untangling in which situations urban citizens opt for vegetarian meals over meals that include meat. To do so, this study applies ecological momentary assessment (EMA) over three subsequent weeks with a sample of 82 participants and 1449 daily meal choices. Results indicate a significant association between individuals’ vegetarian meal choices and factors such as meal type, meal location, and presence of others – for instance, vegetarian meals are more likely to be eaten at breakfast, when people are at home, or when they are alone. Furthermore, individuals are much more likely to eat vegetarian when others in their company also eat a vegetarian meal. Beyond these physical and social contexts, the study finds that the likelihood of eating vegetarian decreases when people are happy, and increases when people are more relaxed in the meal situation. Based on these findings, the study offers practical recommendations for interventions targeting situations highly associated with meat consumption and calls for future research on causal evidence.

本研究通过了解城市居民在哪些情况下选择素食而不是肉类膳食,来解决减少肉类消费的迫切需求。为此,本研究采用生态瞬间评估(EMA)方法,在随后的三周内对 82 名参与者和 1449 次每日用餐选择进行了抽样调查。结果表明,个人的素食选择与膳食类型、用餐地点和他人在场等因素之间存在明显关联,例如,素食更有可能在早餐、在家或独自一人时食用。此外,当身边的人也吃素时,人们更有可能吃素。除了这些物理和社会环境外,研究还发现,当人们心情愉快时,吃素的可能性会降低,而当人们在进餐时比较放松时,吃素的可能性会增加。基于这些发现,该研究针对与肉类消费高度相关的情况提出了切实可行的干预建议,并呼吁未来对因果证据进行研究。

Exposure to nature is positively associated with pro-environmental behavior, though causal evidence to date is limited. We conducted a randomized controlled trial with N = 542 participants, to explore whether a one-time encounter with nature can lead individuals to behave more pro-environmentally. Participants were randomly assigned to one of four conditions, spending 15 minutes either walking through a park, walking through an urban area, viewing a video of a nature walk, or taking a break while seated at a desk. Participants received a EUR 10 endowment to either keep for themselves or donate to a conservation, social, or cultural charity. We observed pro-environmental behavior by measuring donations to the conservation charity, which came at a direct cost to participants. We found modest support that real exposure to nature positively affects pro-environmental behavior, as evidenced by higher average donations compared to watching a nature video, but not compared to any other condition. Self-reported restoration mediated the effect, but lost significance when controlling for environmental concern. Thus, attention restoration as a mechanism was driven by environmentally concerned individuals. Fostering more nature experiences may present a relevant avenue for behavior-change. We discuss limitations and propose several directions for future research.
接触自然与亲环境行为呈正相关,但迄今为止因果关系的证据还很有限。我们进行了一项随机对照试验,共有 542 人参加,目的是探讨与大自然的一次性接触是否会使个人的环保行为更加积极。参与者被随机分配到四种情况中的一种,分别在公园漫步、在市区漫步、观看自然漫步视频或坐在办公桌前休息 15 分钟。参与者将获得 10 欧元的捐赠,可以自己留着,也可以捐给保护、社会或文化慈善机构。我们通过测量对保护慈善机构的捐款来观察参与者的环保行为,而参与者则需要为此直接付出代价。我们发现,与观看自然视频相比,参与者的平均捐款额较高,但与其他条件相比,参与者的平均捐款额并不高,这适度证明了真正接触自然会对亲环境行为产生积极影响。自我报告的注意力恢复对这一效应起到了中介作用,但在控制了对环境的关注度后,这一作用就失去了意义。因此,注意力恢复作为一种机制是由关注环境的个体驱动的。培养更多的自然体验可能是改变行为的一个相关途径。我们讨论了研究的局限性,并提出了未来研究的几个方向。

When houses wear faces: Reverse correlation applied to architectural design 当房子戴上面具反向关联应用于建筑设计

Reverse correlation (RC) is a data-driven method from social psychology that has been effectively shown to visualize the mental representations that humans hold regarding facial attributes. The method helps to understand what features are relevant in terms of the evaluation of faces, such as dominance or submissiveness. To the best of our knowledge, RC has solely been applied to faces within the area of psychology until this point. However, there are many other areas where it is of interest to understand how humans evaluate and visualize content, one of them being the evaluation of house facades. With this work, we extended the application of RC to architectural design, specifically focusing on the evaluation of house facades with respect to the psychological attributes of facelikeness, invitingness, and likeability. Furthermore, we propose a novel approach to create the base image, by utilizing a generative adversarial network. In an online study with a between-subject design, 121 participants completed the RC task, with 40 to 41 participants assigned to each of the three attributes. The resulting classification images (CIs) from the RC task unveil face-related features for the attribute facelikeness, signifying the potential extension of the RC methodology beyond the established domain of facial analysis to other domains, such as architectural design.

反向相关(RC)是社会心理学中一种以数据为驱动的方法,它能有效地将人类对面部特征所持有的心理表征可视化。该方法有助于了解哪些特征与人脸评价相关,例如支配性或顺从性。据我们所知,在此之前,RC 只应用于心理学领域中的人脸。然而,在许多其他领域,了解人类如何评价和可视化内容也是很有意义的,其中之一就是对房屋外墙的评价。通过这项工作,我们将 RC 的应用扩展到了建筑设计领域,特别是侧重于根据 、 、 和 等心理属性对房屋外立面进行评估。此外,我们还提出了一种利用生成式对抗网络创建基础图像的新方法。在一项采用主体间设计的在线研究中,121 名参与者完成了 RC 任务,其中 40 至 41 名参与者分别被分配到三个属性中。RC 任务产生的分类图像(CIs)揭示了与面部相关的属性特征,这表明 RC 方法有可能从面部分析的既定领域扩展到建筑设计等其他领域。

The role of distal landmarks and individual differences in acquiring spatial representations that support flexible and automatic wayfinding 远端地标和个体差异在获取支持灵活自动寻路的空间表征中的作用

Theories of parallel memory systems suggest that flexible wayfinding (e.g., shortcutting) requires knowledge about the spatial structure of an environment, whereas automatic wayfinding (e.g., route-following) does not. Distal landmarks have widely been assumed to promote learning a spatial representation of an environment and, thus, flexible wayfinding through it. There is, however, little behavioural evidence to corroborate this assumption. In three experiments reported here, participants learned a circuitous route through a large-scale virtual garden maze, after which they completed orientation and wayfinding tests that measured their knowledge of the spatial structure of the environment and ability to shortcut through it, respectively. In Experiment 1, we found no evidence of a benefit to navigation in the presence versus the absence of distal landmarks when participants had continuous experience of the learned route, but pointing accuracy and shortcutting ability decreased when the learned route was complex compared to simple. In Experiment 2, participants learned a simple circuitous route in segments, and we observed superior knowledge of how the separately learned local spaces were aligned in the presence versus the absence of distal landmarks. Across all experiments, consistent with parallel memory systems, we observed that knowledge of the spatial structure of the environment was related to shortcutting but not route-following. This pattern of data suggests that distal landmarks promote the integration of separately learned local spaces into a coherent global representation, but do not promote learning of local spaces beyond what can be achieved by tracking self-motion.

平行记忆系统理论认为,灵活寻路(如抄近路)需要了解环境的空间结构,而自动寻路(如路线跟踪)则不需要。人们普遍认为,远处的地标能促进学习环境的空间表征,从而在环境中灵活寻路。然而,几乎没有行为学证据可以证实这一假设。在本文报告的三项实验中,参与者在大型虚拟花园迷宫中学习了一条迂回路线,之后他们完成了定向和寻路测试,分别测量了他们对环境空间结构的了解和在其中抄近路的能力。在实验 1 中,我们没有发现任何证据表明,当参与者对所学路线有持续的经验时,有远端地标与没有远端地标对导航都有好处,但当所学路线复杂与简单相比时,指向的准确性和抄近路的能力都会下降。在实验 2 中,参与者分段学习了一条简单的迂回路线,我们观察到,在有远处地标的情况下和没有远处地标的情况下,参与者对分别学习到的局部空间如何对齐有更深入的了解。在所有实验中,与平行记忆系统一致的是,我们观察到环境空间结构知识与抄近路有关,而与路线追踪无关。这种数据模式表明,远端地标能促进将单独学习到的局部空间整合为一个连贯的全局表征,但并不能促进对局部空间的学习,而超出通过追踪自我运动所能实现的范围。
