“…There is no consensus in literature on gender difference affecting spatial abilities. The results of this study are parallel to the results obtained in previous research regarding the gender difference favoring males, affecting wayfinding and spatial navigation performances. However, certain studies in literature have found no gender difference or favored females in spatial performances …”

It is well documented that elderly people often have difficulties in finding their way in unfamiliar environments. In this study, we aimed to explore the usage of colour as visuospatial navigation tool for elderly people by testing in a virtually simulated polyclinic environment. We compared neutral, warm and cool coloured experiment settings to find out the effect of different colours on elderly people's visuospatial navigation performances. We conducted our experiment with 90 participants in two phases, each with a specific task (Route Replication and Picture Classification). The findings showed that neutral coloured setting affected participants' visuospatial navigation performances negatively compared to warm and cool coloured settings. However, there was no significant performance difference between warm and cool coloured environments. In addition to that, when they were asked to reach to the destination point, male participants spent shorter time, did fewer wrong turns, experienced fewer hesitations and traveled shorter distances compared to female participants. Currently, due to the increase in the elderly population, designing well‐functioning interior spaces for the elderly has become a more pressing matter. We believe that the findings of this study will provide important clues for both interior designers and environmental psychologists.

“…It can greatly stimulate the users' visual sense and is used in different fields [40]. In the aspect of simulating physical lighting environment, VR is a better choice to replace the physical scene and many scholars have studied the human-factors lighting [41][42][43].…”

Stereoscopic lighting is one of the influencing visual quality factors improving the visual presentation of ceramic exhibits. However, the current research only has a specific definition, and there is no clear measurement and evaluation method. This research adopted the method of bidirectional verification: psychophysical experiment and immersive virtual reality (VR) with eye-movement tracking. We proposed a standard questionnaire for the stereoscopic visual experience. The eye-tracking data show that the visible fixation duration with stereoscopic lighting is (M = 5.18 s), and the number of fixation points accounted for 63.48% of the whole number. Both indexes were higher than the situation without stereoscopic lighting. The result shows that the accuracy of finding the detail changes with or without stereoscopic lighting was 12.5% through the comparison of visual identification tasks, and finding modeling changes was 11.5%. In the situation with stereoscopic lighting, the first identification frequency increased by 15.9% for small pattern changes of exhibits, as local modeling changes increased by 19%. These results indicated that the stereoscopic lighting set according to the exhibits' volume could effectively improve the viewer's visual guide, strengthen the visual attention of the details, and model elements of the exhibits to achieve the optimal appreciation.

“…This is because people feel safest when they have a good overview of the space in which they are moving and if they feel they are supported by other users [ 11 ]. It has been found in the previous literature that outdoor lighting has a significant effect on how a space is perceived and on perceived security [ 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ]. Therefore, lighting should be considered an essential design variable in urban design.…”

The effect that the physical characteristics of urban design have on the pedestrian’s perceptions of safety is a fundamental aspect of city planning. This is particularly so with street crossings, where the pedestrian has to make a decision. This paper analyses how pedestrians are affected by number of traffic lanes, lighting colour temperature, and nearby vegetation as they cross roads. Perceptions of safety were quantified by means of the psychological and neurophysiological responses of 60 participants to 16 virtual reality scenarios (4 day and 12 night), based on existing urban design variables. The results showed differences between night-time and daytime scenarios, which suggests that there is a need to analyse both situations. As to the design guidelines, it was observed that safety is improved by reducing the number of traffic lanes and nearby vegetation, and by using a lighting colour temperature of 4500 K. However, the analysis of the variables showed that combined effects produce different results to those obtained from the analysis of individual elements. This result is essential information for urban managers in their assessments of whether particular interventions will improve crossing points.
