小家庭生活方式影响下的传统民居研究——以漳州诒安堡民居平面布局为例

以平面布局的各种规律为切入点,对闽南传统民居的使用方式进行研究,分析其在现代生活与文化背景下,居住空间与生活方式相互影响、相互制约的机制.研究发现,现实便利性对平面布局的影响占据主导地位,这不仅反映在分户与入口流线的选择上,在单元平面的功能分配与位置分布上也有所体现;居住形式食寝分离,厨房与卧室绝对分离;居住需求呈现年龄分化,年轻家庭追求居室空间的独立化,老年家庭则追求居住空间的复合化.     

Retail Change in Southern Sydney: Lifestyle-Linked Restructuring?

Examination of the changing composition of shopping centres in suburban Sydney between 1969 and 1998 suggests that retail restructuring is linked to lifestyle changes. The growth in the number of shops appears to have matched population growth in the 1990s, suggesting that the suburbanisation of retailing has stabilised. At the same time there has been increasing diversification in terms of the retail functions which are available and in terms of the places where these are available. These changes appear linked to a blurring of the distinction between shopping and leisure and to the use of shopping as a way of signifying identity.     

The psychological benefits of cooperative place-making: a mixed methods analyses of co-design workshops

Abstract

In a study aiming to establish the intrinsic value of involvement in a co-design, place-making workshop, we engaged participants in a vision-led development of the grounds and immediate parkland setting of a run-down Grade II listed Mansion House in South Liverpool. Two groups of volunteers engaged in 6 × 90-min co-design workshop sessions spaced equally over 6 weeks, forming part of a cross-over design that compared the intrinsic value and wellbeing benefits of shared reading to place-making. The sessions aimed to develop place-making confidence, place-appraisal skills and design-thinking in the participants and to propose aims, objectives and a vision that supported the ethos of the social enterprise that was developing the property. Data collected using post-it notes, limited voice recording and subsequent interview was qualitatively analysed and considered alongside quantitative analysis using standardised and bespoke realistic procedures. The findings suggest that the workshop activities supported changes to psychological and community wellbeing by enhancing both a sense of personal growth and a collective sense of place-related optimism. We therefore assert that the practice of co-design place-making has potential to develop mental and social capital by reconnecting people to place and communities to neighbourhoods.

‘Mentally,we’re rather country people’ – planssplaining the quest for urbanity in Helsinki,Finland

ABSTRACT

This paper explores the concept of urbanity in a specific context, namely Helsinki, Finland. In a European context, Finland urbanized late. This lies at the heart of the common interpretation that Finland lacks an urban culture and urban lifestyles. Today, however, with the new comprehensive Urban Plan, city planners in Helsinki emphasize a paradigm shift towards urbanity. This paper seeks to understand this changing emphasis in planning by exploring how planners frame and understand urbanity. The paper concludes that within the Nordic welfare context more emphasis is needed to rethink whom urbanity serves and how it resonates with the prevention of segregation that the city also aims at.     

Lifestyle interventions in the treatment of childhood overweight: A meta-analytic review of randomized controlled trials.

Context: Evaluating the efficacy of pediatric weight loss treatments is critical. Objective: This is the first meta-analysis of the efficacy of RCTs comparing pediatric lifestyle interventions to no-treatment or information/education-only controls. Data Sources: Medline, PsycINFO, and Cochrane Controlled Trials Register. Study Selection: Fourteen RCTs targetting change in weight status were eligible, yielding 19 effect sizes. Data Extraction: Standardized coding was used to extract information on design, participant characteristics, interventions, and results. Data Synthesis: For trials with no-treatment controls, the mean effect size was 0.75 (κ = 9, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.52-0.98) at end of treatment and 0.60 (κ = 4, CI = 0.27-0.94) at follow-up. For trials with information/education-only controls, the mean ES was 0.48 (κ = 4, CI = 0.13-0.82) at end of treatment and 0.91 (κ = 2, CI = 0.32-1.50) at follow-up. No moderator effects were identified. Conclusions: Lifestyle interventions for pediatric overweight are efficacious in the short term with some evidence for extended persistence. Future research is required to identify moderators and mediators and to determine the optimal length and intensity of treatment required to produce enduring changes in weight status.

Lifestyle and mental health.

Mental health professionals have significantly underestimated the importance of lifestyle factors (a) as contributors to and treatments for multiple psychopathologies, (b) for fostering individual and social well-being, and (c) for preserving and optimizing cognitive function. Consequently, therapeutic lifestyle changes (TLCs) are underutilized despite considerable evidence of their effectiveness in both clinical and normal populations. TLCs are sometimes as effective as either psychotherapy or pharmacotherapy and can offer significant therapeutic advantages. Important TLCs include exercise, nutrition and diet, time in nature, relationships, recreation, relaxation and stress management, religious or spiritual involvement, and service to others. This article reviews research on their effects and effectiveness; the principles, advantages, and challenges involved in implementing them; and the forces (economic, institutional, and professional) hindering their use. Where possible, therapeutic recommendations are distilled into easily communicable principles, because such ease of communication strongly influences whether therapists recommend and patients adopt interventions. Finally, the article explores the many implications of contemporary lifestyles and TLCs for individuals, society, and health professionals. In the 21st century, therapeutic lifestyles may need to be a central focus of mental, medical, and public health. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2011 APA, all rights reserved)
