Several researches in recent years have analyzed the influence that the environment around us can have on individual variables and cognitive tasks of each individual. The present research aims to measure the behavior of some individual variables in urban environments of different types: predominantly green, predominantly built, and hybrid environments. Specifically, the objective of this study is to analyze the relationships between familiarity with an environment, perceived emotions upon exposure with an environment, perceived restorativeness, and distance estimation ability. The variables were measured through an experiment consisting of two sessions: the first consisting of a questionnaire carried out independently by the participants, and the second consisting of the performance of some routes in urban environments and the simultaneous completion of additional questionnaires. In the first chapter, the variables of interest in the research are explained theoretically and the results of some previous similar studies are commented on. In the second chapter, the research is presented methodologically: the method, procedure and results of the experiment are explained. In the third and final chapter, the results obtained are commented on and compared with data already in the literature with the aim of providing an explanation for what emerged from the research.
Diverse ricerche, negli ultimi anni, hanno analizzato l’influenza che l’ambiente che ci circonda può avere sulle variabili individuali e sui compiti cognitivi di ogni individuo. La presente ricerca si pone l’obiettivo di misurare il comportamento di alcune variabili individuali in ambienti urbani di diverso tipo: ambienti prevalentemente verdi, prevalentemente costruiti e ibridi. In particolare, l’obiettivo di questo studio è quello di analizzare le relazioni tra la familiarità con un ambiente, le emozioni percepite al momento dell’esposizione con un ambiente, la restoratività percepita e la capacità di stima di distanza. La misurazione delle variabili è avvenuta tramite un esperimento composto da due sessioni: la prima costituita da un questionario svolto autonomamente dai partecipanti e la seconda costituita dallo svolgimento di alcuni percorsi in ambienti urbani e dalla contemporanea compilazione di ulteriori questionari. Nel primo capitolo sono illustrate teoricamente le variabili di interesse della ricerca e vengono commentati i risultati di alcuni studi simili precedenti. Nel secondo capitolo è presentata la ricerca dal punto di vista metodologico: sono illustrati il metodo, la procedura e i risultati dell’esperimento. Nel terzo e ultimo capitolo sono commentati i risultati ottenuti e confrontati con i dati già presenti in letteratura con il fine di dare una spiegazione a quanto emerso dalla ricerca.

Abstract
Several researches in recent years have analyzed the influence that the environment around us can have on individual variables and cognitive tasks of each individual. The present research aims to measure the behavior of some individual variables in urban environments of different types: predominantly green, predominantly built, and hybrid environments. Specifically, the objective of this study is to analyze the relationships between familiarity with an environment, perceived emotions upon exposure with an environment, perceived restorativeness, and distance estimation ability. The variables were measured through an experiment consisting of two sessions: the first consisting of a questionnaire carried out independently by the participants, and the second consisting of the performance of some routes in urban environments and the simultaneous completion of additional questionnaires. In the first chapter, the variables of interest in the research are explained theoretically and the results of some previous similar studies are commented on. In the second chapter, the research is presented methodologically: the method, procedure and results of the experiment are explained. In the third and final chapter, the results obtained are commented on and compared with data already in the literature with the aim of providing an explanation for what emerged from the research.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
