From Policy to Practice: A Global Review of Circular Economy Strategy Documents in Construction Using NLP
This study explores how circular economy (CE) principles are incorporated in construction‐related policy roadmaps worldwide, addressing the growing need for effective resource strategies in a highly material‐intensive sector. National strategic CE documents from 57 countries were analyzed using natural language processing techniques, and then their policy statements were systematically mapped to the 10R hierarchy. A constrained cluster analysis i…
Technical barriers to circular economy implementation in the built environment: A problem-based multi-level review
Technical barriers in the built environment are systemic and affect multiple levels • A multi-level problem-based approach is essential for effective CE implementation • Key barriers to knowledge and skills, processes and infrastructures are often neglected • Shorter service-life building layers, such as the space plan, are less investigated • CE focus remains on reuse and recycling rather than broader circular strategies The circular economy (CE…

Understanding Public Perception of Air Quality in the Urban Environment of Central Asia: An Empirical Assessment Using Structural Equation Modelling
Public awareness and understanding of air quality in Central Asia remain considerably low. The present study assesses the perception, attitude and environmental knowledge of local air quality among adult urban residents ( n = 870) in a city with high air pollution among cities of Central Asia: Astana, Kazakhstan. Structural equation modelling (SEM) was employed to investigate the causal relationship between perceived air quality, environmental li…
Exploring stakeholders’ opinions on circular economy in the construction sector: A natural language processing analysis of social media discourse
The construction industry has been criticized for its negative environmental impacts, leading industry experts to advocate for a shift toward a circular economy (CE) model. However, there is a lack of research on stakeholder opinions regarding that. This research paper examines stakeholders’ perspectives on implementing CE principles in the construction industry by conducting artificial intelligence‐powered natural language processing (NLP) throu…

Neuropsychological Assessment of Community-Dwelling Older Adults in Almaty, Kazakhstan
Cognitive impairment in older adults is a major public concern for Kazakhstan's aging population. We aimed to (1) administer a neuropsychological test battery (NTB) in domains relevant to aging-associated cognitive impairment in a sample of adults aged 60+ without dementia in Almaty, Kazakhstan; (2) investigate the associations between demographic factors and test performance; and (3) provide information on the distribution of NTB scores as preli…
Stakeholder based weights of new sustainability indicators providing pandemic resilience for residential buildings
An Empirical Model for Assessing the Impact of Air Quality on Urban Residents’ Loyalty to Place of Residence
There has been a growing interest in the impact of environmental awareness on ‘green’ or ‘environmentally friendly’ consumption patterns, and this has been the subject of much research by environmental psychologists. However, the effect of environmental awareness on residents and their attachment to their homes and their environment has received little attention and is worthy of closer examination. Outdoor air quality can be considered one of the…
