Transit-oriented development (TOD) offers as a method to provide sustainable living and introducing place making the essential needs of producing good public spaces. TOD may also help achieve greater positive outcome that satisfies community’s demand. This study synthesized literature reviews from 1993 2021 on ‘sense place’ in creating quality Views taken includes concern methodological compone...

In this paper we revisit the classical NLP problem of prepositional phrase attachment (PPattachment). Given the pattern V −NP1−P−NP2 in the text, where V is verb,NP1 is a noun phrase, P is the preposition and NP2 is the other noun phrase, the question asked is where does P −NP2 attach: V or NP1? This question is typically answered using both the word and the world knowledge. Word Sense Disambig...

The therapeutic application of siRNA suffers from poor bioavailability caused by rapid degradation and elimination. The covalent attachment of PEG is a universal concept to increase molecular size and enhance the pharmacokinetic properties of biomacromolecules. We devised a facile approach for attachment of PEG molecules with a defined molecular weight, and successful purification of the result...

Background: Care giving for an elderly parent is a universal developmental task, and in all societies is one of the women tasks; its expectations are considered norms known as filial responsibility. The aim of the study is to examine the possibility of connections between the attitudes toward filial responsibility to elderly parents and the attachment style in adulthood and age (generation) amo...

In order to examine the detailed attachment structure held by fans of a talking toy character (Primopuel), the contents of fan letters sent to a toy company were analyzed. Using our content classification system (Matsumoto et al, 2003, 2004), 51 fan letters were analyzed in terms of attachment. Based on the results of factor analysis, we argue that attachment is one of the factors that (a) evok...

Over the past 40 years, the sense of place concept has been well-established across a range of applications and settings; however, most theoretical developments have "privileged the slow." Evidence suggests that place attachments and place meanings are slow to evolve, sometimes not matching material or social reality (lag effects), and also tending to inhibit change. Here, we present some key b...

Although it has long been hypothesized that attachment figures provide individuals with a sense of safety and security, the neural mechanisms underlying attachment-induced safety have not been explored. Here, we investigated whether an attachment figure acts as a safety signal by exploring whether viewing an attachment figure during a threatening experience (physical pain) led to increased acti...

Place attachments are positive bonds to physical and social settings that support identity and provide other psychological benefits. However, place attachments have been neglected as a potential strength in declining suburban neighborhoods. Hierarchical linear modeling analyses are used to examine attachment to the home and attachment to the block/neighborhood for over 600 residents of a neighb...

Recently, we reported that the stiffness of poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) affects the attachment of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and the morphology and antibiotic susceptibility of attached cells. To further understand how P. aeruginosa responses to material stiffness during attachment, the wild-type P. aeruginosa PAO1 and several isogenic mutants were characterized for their attachment on soft and ...

This research uses urban space reconstruction as the entry point, discussing characteristics of residents’ sense place in Lingang new town, Shanghai, based on method factor analysis to divide into attachment, identity, and dependence. On whole, town is at a common level, comprehensive score "more than half". Meanwhile, attachment highest, dependence lowest, identity middle. Therefore, mainly de...
