The ecological validity of soundscape studies usually rests on the choice soundscapes that are representative perceptual space under investigation. For example, a pleasantness study might investigate locations with ranging from “pleasant” to “annoying”. is typically researcher led, but participant-led process can reduce selection bias and improve result reliability. Hence, we propose robust method pinpoint characteristic possessing arbitrary attributes. We validate our by identifying Singaporean spanning quadrants generated “Pleasantness” “Eventfulness” axes ISO 12913-2 circumplex model perception, as perceived local experts. From memory experience, 67 participants first selected corresponding each quadrant in major planning region Singapore. then performed weighted k-means clustering locations, weights for location derived previous frequencies durations spent participant. Weights hence acted proxies participant confidence. In total, 62 were thereby identified suitable further research utilizing quadrants. Audio–visual recordings acoustic characterization will be made future study.

Abstract Purpose of Review The article reviews the literature on soundscape studies to analyse (i) which methods included in Technical Specification (TS) 12913-2:2018 by International Organization for Standardization (ISO) collecting data from individuals are predominantly used scientific research and (ii) what is level compliance with ISO recommendations employed research. Recent Findings ISO/TS provide three possible protocols individuals’ collection (Methods A, B, C). Despite standardization efforts, a reference method has yet be identified improve comparability amongst formation evidence. Summary analysis 50 peer-reviewed papers published 2018 (year release 12913-2) showed that Method A prevalent one, adopted 94.4% studies. Full technical specification any case quite limited, almost no study strictly adhering them. Attributes not always suitable cover all acoustic contexts (e.g. indoor environments). This an indicator field still developing, but it also signals leave room ambiguity or implementable. ultimately intended offer future development process. Graphical

Abstract Soundscape heritage records the cultural connotations of different ethnic groups, destruction, and disappearance certain makes its preservation urgent. This work aims to explore influence audio-visual sensory stimuli on subjective cognition, perceptual dimension value evaluation Grand Song Dong soundscape heritage. We have conducted an interaction experiment, using 2D video high-fidelity audio systems show typical visual elements scenes Dong, combined them with questionnaires collect data. The results that no effect soundscape, social characteristics participants are main reason for variations. perception is greater, enhanced than single auditory sensory, i.e., scale dimension, indicating can enhance sensing spatial limitation. introduction element in higher scores each alone, a positive impact evaluation. these studies provide theoretical basis living transmission holistic conservation their scenes.

3D printing technology is suitable for application in advancing digitization dentistry. However, the use of this dental field not as widespread expected. The study discusses barriers to First, Fuzzy Delphi was used conduct in-depth interviews with experts explore what prevent advancement Second, decision-making and trial assessment laboratory (DEMATEL) identify cause-and-effect relationship among barriers. Because DEMATEL relies on expert system, often have different experiences backgrounds, so judgment results are uncertain inconsistent. Therefore, proposes using a rough-Z-number integrate opinions experts, which can effectively overcome problems inconsistency uncertainty. After analyzing results, we found that “lack standard infrastructure” most important barrier dentistry, provides improvement strategies based results. put forward countermeasures promotion will make development more effective.

This study evaluated the effects of water span and number building levels (3, 6, 17 storeys) on quality human recovery, security, overall experience (comfort, satisfaction, preference). In addition, we investigated including different sound sources in waterfront high-rise built environment above subjective evaluations. After measuring architectural parameters settlement identifying sources, simulations were carried out using virtual reality 3D technology with a walking perspective. The analysis showed that terms wider span, lower perception security (p < 0.01). did not affect recovery or experience. degree displayed strong negative connection storeys building. Among them, low multi-storey buildings (3 to 6 had best quality, setting, it is desirable include birdsong lesser extent stream sounds. Furthermore, men rated than women under conditions levels, variation sources. Compared women, needed more restorative

It is important to identify means of improving and maintaining a sustainable doctor-patient relationship address current healthcare issues. Although many studies have made outstanding contributions the literature, little work has been done explore influencing elements in relation expectation confirmation theory. To fill this gap, study produced theoretical framework model factors according Data from 335 Chinese patients were analyzed using structural equation modeling method, results showed that patient satisfaction trust are most building good between doctor patient. Furthermore, three components postdiagnosis patient’s perception, namely, perceived service quality, communication attitude, examined. These significant impact on confirmation. ultimately affect relationship. This will be helpful for doctors understand patients’ demands their future diagnosis behavior. The proposals may lead optimization process improvements quality clinic services.

This leads completion rate renewal fewer than one ten-thousandth new construction needed. study investigated perspective on research variables how those influence intention Using Theory Planned Behavior, framework designed with project builders perceived benefits public participation as independent variables. Attitudes, subjective norms, behavioral control are mediating variables, general public's dependent variable. A total 545 valid questionnaires were collected through survey. The results showed that respondents' positively significantly influenced project, norms. affected attitudes people's attitudes, People's projects variable most strongly this study. provides practical suggestions government increase modeled two under context Taiwan.
