A comparative study on online victimization perceptions (cyberbullying, dating violence, and sexual harassment) and psychological symptoms in sexual and gender minority youth
Experiencing worry or perceiving risks in online environments can be linked to undesirable psychological and social outcomes, potentially incrementing the unique challenges that sexual and gender minority (SGM) youths may face in online environments. The purpose of this study is to examine differential perceptions of the frequency of worry about and perceived risk of online victimization and psychological symptoms between sexual and gender minori…
Women's Safety Perception Before and After the Reconstruction of an Urban Area: A Mixed-Method Research
This study examines women's perceptions of safety in a high-risk area undergoing urban redesign. Using a mixed-method approach-systematic observation, surveys, and safety walks before and after the intervention-it explores how the built environment influences feelings of insecurity. Grounded in Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design, the research integrates quantitative and qualitative data to provide a comprehensive understanding of safet…
Waste-to-energy risk perception typology: Health, politics and environmental impacts
Where strategies to reduce and recycle urban solid waste are insufficient, waste incineration is proposed as second-best management. Waste-toenergy facilities often raise remarkable public controversy, which the Not-In-My-Backyard effect does not explain sufficiently. Heterogeneous concerns lead to diverse risk perception profiles that standard psychometric scales cannot uncover. We explore this diversity of profiles by analyzing risk perceptions…
Environmental Conditions Associated With Youth Delinquency Events: A Temporal, Meteorological, and Contextual Perspective
Research on youth delinquency has been essential for gaining a deeper understanding of the etiology of delinquent behavior. Studies considering the environmental perspective have increased during the last decade, but relatively little attention has been paid to temporal patterns and weather conditions. The present study explores the seasonality of youth delinquency as well as the association between violent and non-violent youth offenses and temp…
A Tale of Two Sticks: Walking towards Restoration
Most studies conducted on Nordic Walking have addressed bio-medical questions, such as recovery from injuries or medical interventions and its therapeutic value for various health conditions. However, the psychological outcomes of this activity remain so far greatly under-researched, along with its implications for research in leisure and recovery literature. In this paper we present a prestest-posttest study assessing the affective restoration a…
Towards a Place-based Measure of Fear of Crime: A Systematic Review of App-based and Crowdsourcing Approaches
Few researches have considered fear of crime as a context-specific experience. This article promotes a place-based theoretical framework for studying crime perceptions through presenting app-based and crowdsourcing measures of perception of crime and place as a robust methodological framework. A systematic review of published studies that use crowdsourced or app-based measures to explore perceptions of crime was conducted. From the 27 studies tha…
“Taking a Walk on the Wild Side”: Exploring Residence-to-Crime in Juveniles
Although evidence regarding the journey-to-crime in juvenile offenders is available for some areas of the world, little is known about their mobility patterns in Southern Europe. Variables such as prosocial facilities, transport stations, or socioeconomic backdrop have been proved to influence the traveled distance. Therefore, we aimed to confirm previous findings in the journey-to-crime literature using data provided by the Juvenile Justice Depa…
Green and blue settings as providers of mental health ecosystem services: Comparing urban beaches and parks and building a predictive model of psychological restoration
Welcome to your plaza: Assessing the restorative potential of urban squares through survey and objective evaluation methods
Pretest-posttest field studies on psychological restoration: A descriptive review and reflections for the future
Almost four decades ago, Attention Restoration Theory and Stress Recovery Theory postulated that nature could help people to recover from the attentional fatigue and the emotional negative outcomes coming from their daily performance. Since then, these theories have inspired a great amount of research. In this review, 19 restoration pretest-posttest field studies were selected. A systematic analysis of the papers was conducted using two rating to…
