“…On the contrary, the dimmer lighting and the cooler CCT relate to fatigue mood. This result was the opposite of another research that concluded higher CCT (Askaripoor et al, 2021;Chou, Lu & Huang, 2016;He et al, 2020;Kazemi et al, 2018;Toftum et al, 2018) and low illuminance level lead to alertness (He et al, 2020).…”

Mood affects an individual's performance, whether relaxed/tense or alert/fatigued. This article was based on research to study a correlation between the lighting setting with relaxed-tense and alert/fatigued moods in the workplace by observing the illuminance level, the correlated color temperature (CCT), and the overhead/peripheral placement of lighting. The research was conducted with two online image-based questionnaire evaluations of 7 different lighting settings specifying their illuminance level, CCT, and placement as overhead or peripheral lighting depicted in images from the DIALux simulation. In the first questionnaire, subjects were asked to rate the difference between the two lighting displays being compared and the combination of the seven lighting settings. In the second questionnaire, subjects were also asked to rate their relaxed-tense and alert-fatigued perceptions of the lighting diplayed in the image. The results of these two questionnaires were analyzed by multidimensional scaling and correlation analysis. This image-based research concluded that a relaxed/tense perceived mood correlated negatively with the CCT, and an alert/fatigued perceived mood correlated negatively with the illuminance level and the CCT.

This project was implemented to help low-income and underprivileged women grow their small businesses. This project aims to identify and analyse the problems faced by underprivileged women, focusing on food packaging. The participants were from Kampung Pinggan Jaya, Kuching Sarawak in Malaysia, who run small and medium food businesses. The food categories were based on dry and frozen foods, which were mainly homemade. The participants were housewives aged between 30 and 45 years with low monthly household incomes ranging from US $45 (MYR 200) to US $168 (MYR 750). Thus, the project's main objective is to improve product packaging to establish itself in the local market. Empathy mapping was the technique of choice as it demonstrates collaborative visualisation. Consequently, an entrepreneurship workshop was organised to identify potential products and participants interested in the project. Some problems and constraints during project implementation were due to financial concerns, attitudes, and illiteracy.

“…Figure 8 shows the co-word network of EDA used in the field of building construction. At the moment, EDA is primarily used in the built environment, where excessively high or excessively low indoor temperature ( Chou et al, 2016 ; Sepehri et al, 2021 ), and a cold white lighting environment ( Basso, 2001 ) can increase EDA, thereby increasing work stress for indoor workers. When people spend an extended period in a noisy environment, their respiration rate drops sharply and their EDA levels significantly increase ( Park et al, 2018 ).…”

Interdisciplinary integration is a new driving force in development of science and technology. Neuroscience, a powerful tool for studying human physiology and psychology that is greatly interconnected with the field of building construction, has attracted numerous research attention. In this paper, we systematically review the interdisciplinary applications of neuroscience tools using bibliometric methods. We report that the built environment, construction safety, architectural design, and occupational health are the main areas of research attention, while thermal comfort, air quality, hazard recognition, safety training, aesthetic design, and biophilic design, among others, comprise the most frequently studied topics with regards to application of neuroscience tools. Currently, eye tracking and the electroencephalogram are the most commonly used tools in the field of building construction, while functional near-infrared spectroscopy, functional magnetic resonance imaging and trigeminal nerve stimulation are still at their initial stage of application.
