Influence of urban park landscape attributes on office workers’ self-rated health
Threshold effects of urban built-up and green space morphology on seasonal daytime–night-time land surface temperature
Spatial Correlates of Perceived Safety
Perceived safety strongly shapes how residents use and experience their neighborhoods, yet evidence on how spatial and social factors interact in rapidly urbanizing Asian cities remains limited. This study investigates the role of natural surveillance, spatial connectivity, and perceived incivilities in shaping residents’ perceived safety in Bayan Baru, Malaysia, with fear of crime examined as a key mediating factor. A face-to-face survey of 300 …
CPTED, satisfaction and loyalty in urban wetland parks
Despite the ongoing economic growth, gender and economic inequalities persist, particularly in the healthcare, education and urban design sectors. This study investigates the relationship of crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED) principles with user satisfaction and loyalty in urban wetland parks. In accordance with stimulus–organism–response theory, we conducted a survey among 558 park users. Results reveal that improvements in C…
Perceived safety in urban parks
Rethinking Urban Greening
While urban greening is an effective adaptation strategy for building resilient cities, socioeconomic factors and individual perceptions of urban parks play a significant role in enhancing their safety and inclusiveness. Crime Prevention through Environmental Design (CPTED) is a widely recognized approach for enhancing safety in urban public spaces. However, existing research has largely overlooked the impact of socioeconomic factors and interper…
Using a Space Syntax Approach to Enhance Pedestrians’ Accessibility and Safety in the Historic City of George Town, Penang
Contemporary urban development places a critical emphasis on pedestrian environments, especially in historic cities like George Town, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Malaysia. Although survey questionnaires effectively captured public perceptions of issues such as poor road connectivity, weak accessibility, crime and safety concerns in George Town, they fell short in providing a comprehensive understanding of the root causes. This study …
Urban Parks and Office Workers’ Health
This study addresses the impact of urban parks on the self-rated health of office workers under 40, a demographic experiencing significant increases in depressive symptoms during the pandemic. This study in Baise City, China, aims to fill this gap by exploring the relationships between landscape quality, leisure time spent in parks, place attachment, and self-rated health among 411 office workers aged 18 to 40. Structural equation modeling was us…
How urban park features impact perceived safety by considering the role of time spent in the park, gender, and parental status
Integrating space syntax and CPTED in assessing outdoor physical activity
The relationship between the spatial configuration of the built environment and outdoor physical activity is supported in the literature. However, the role of crime prevention elements and safety is neglected in that relationship. Using structural equation modelling and considering the effect of demographic factors, this study combined concepts of space syntax for analysis of spatial configuration and Crime Prevention through Environmental Design…
Assessing the morphological distribution of urban green spaces for the future sustainable greenery planning
Returning to historic neighborhoods
Purpose The study aims to evaluate the relationship among architectural identity, physical identity and neighborhood attachment in a residential neighborhood in the core of Sanandaj, Iran. Design/methodology/approach This quantitative study conducted a survey of 208 residents in a historic neighborhood. The study hypothesized the mediating role of physical identity on the relationship between architectural identity and neighborhood attachment. St…
Building form and energy efficiency in tropical climates
Malaysia is a nation that has undergone a massive development based on its abundance of fuel supply. The imbalance ratio between gross domestic products and energy demand clearly indicates the need to promote energy-efficiency strategies in the country. This study investigates the relationship between building shape and energy consumption by considering the control of excessive solar radiation in a tropical climate. In the first step, four basic …
Examining the effects of crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED) on Residential Burglary
The effectiveness of interventions in the built environment for improving health by addressing fear of crime
Territorial features, disorder and fear of crime in residential neighbourhoods in Malaysia
This research examined the relationships between territoriality, disorder, crime, perceived risk and fear of crime and determined whether these relationships are constant between neighbourhoods. Questionnaire surveys and on-site observations were conducted on a sample of 320 residents from two neighbourhoods in Malaysia. Tests for invariance were conducted to determine whether coefficients differed across neighbourhoods. Confirmatory factor analy…
Broken Windows and Collective Efficacy
The broken windows thesis posits that signs of disorder increase crime and fear, both directly and indirectly. Although considerable theoretical evidence exists to support the idea that disorder is positively related to fear of crime, the empirical literature on examining the indirect effect of the individual's perception of incivilities on fear of crime is limited, especially in developing countries. This research was conducted to assess the ind…
Examining social cohesion and victimization in a Malaysian multiethnic neighborhood
A Cross-Cultural Validation of the Territorial Functioning Construct in Residential Neighbourhoods
One popular use of design strategies for crime prevention is territorial functioning (TF). While the TF scale has been widely utilised in crime studies, there is a lack of empirical evidence to support the equivalence of the scale across diverse contexts. A sample of 416 inhabitants from Britain and Malaysia took part in the study. We examined the factor structure validity and invariance of the TF scale instrument within the two nations based on …
