Frontiers is more than just an open access publisher of scholarly articles: it is a pioneering approach to the world of academia, radically improving the way scholarly research is managed. The grand vision of Frontiers is a world where all people have an equal opportunity to seek, share and generate knowledge. Frontiers provides immediate and permanent online open access to all its publications, but this alone is not enough to realize our grand goals. Frontiers journal seriesThe Frontiers journal series is a multi-tier and interdisciplinary set of openaccess, online journals, promising a paradigm shift from the current review, selection and dissemination processes in academic publishing. All Frontiers journals are driven by researchers for researchers; therefore, they constitute a service to the scholarly community. At the same time, the Frontiers journal series operates on a revolutionary invention, the tiered publishing system, initially addressing specific communities of scholars, and gradually climbing up to broader public understanding, thus serving the interests of the lay society, too. Dedication to qualityEach Frontiers article is a landmark of the highest quality, thanks to genuinely collaborative interactions between authors and review editors, who include some of the world's best academicians. Research must be certified by peers before entering a stream of knowledge that may eventually reach the public -and shape society; therefore, Frontiers only applies the most rigorous and unbiased reviews. Frontiers revolutionizes research publishing by freely delivering the most outstanding research, evaluated with no bias from both the academic and social point of view. By applying the most advanced information technologies, Frontiers is catapulting scholarly publishing into a new generation. What are Frontiers Research Topics?Frontiers Research Topics are very popular trademarks of the Frontiers journals series: they are collections of at least ten articles, all centered on a particular subject. With their unique mix of varied contributions from Original Research to Review Articles, Frontiers Research Topics unify the most influential researchers, the latest key findings and historical advances in a hot research area.

Maintaining the sustained improvement of human living environments in rural areas while improving habitats poses a substantial challenge. While promoting participation by rural residents is key to achieving the improvement of rural living environments, existing studies have mostly focused on the “net effect” single factors have on their participation. However, few studies have considered the combined effects of multiple characteristics in complex contexts. In this study, a revised model of planned behavior is constructed, based on configuration theory; the histories of pathways that influence rural households’ willingness to participate in improving rural living environments are also explored. The perspective of concurrent causality is adopted, and this study examines whether a “mutual substitution effect” exists between the antecedent conditions in different paths. A questionnaire survey was conducted in six provinces (including autonomous regions) in less-developed areas of China. Six configuration paths of rural residents’ higher willingness to participate in the improvement of rural living environments were obtained using fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis. The results show that: 1) In the path of high willingness to participate, the behavioral attitudes characterized by the “trustworthiness of village leaders” and “group identity” play the central role. “Social capital” and the “trustworthiness of village leaders” have a mutual substitution effect. 2) When using positive behavioral attitude evaluation as a core condition, “educational level” and “environmental awareness” have a mutual substitution effect. “Household income level”, as the marginal condition, has a mutual substitution effect with “environmentally friendly habits”. Therefore, to increase rural residents’ willingness to participate in improving rural living environments in less-developed areas, the level of the “trustworthiness of village leaders” and “group identity” should be raised. In addition, depending on the “mutual substitution effect” between different conditions, to achieve the same improvement in rural areas with a low level of “social capital”, the focus should be on improving the “trustworthiness of village leaders”. For rural areas with a slight difference in “household income level”, the focus should be on promoting the formation of “environmentally friendly habits” among rural residents.

“…These studies selected the appropriate index factors, built an indicator evaluation system [2] for the rural habitat environment, established a multi-criterion decision-making model [3,4], and objectively assessed the quality of the sustainable development level and the rural habitat environment using the entropy weight method [3], hierarchical analysis [5], principal component analysis [6], and GIS technology platform [7]. Furthermore, studies on the perceptions of rural residents are steadily growing to investigate the satisfaction of the rural habitat environment, develop a subjective evaluation scale and evaluation system, and learn more about the villagers' sense of participation and participation behavior [8,9]. Index assessment methods, which are widely used as the predominant evaluation approach in contemporary research on rural human settlements, are not without their limitations.…”

As the quality of life and the spiritual and cultural well-being of the inhabitants progress, the current rural infrastructure has challenges in adequately addressing the physical and psychological requirements of individuals. This work presents a method for evaluating rural habitats by utilizing electroencephalography (EEG) signals and virtual reality (VR) technology to address the existing gap in physiological data evaluation in rural areas. We choose as experimental images the current situation (C1–C5) scenes of five rural main street nodes as well as the comparative transformation scenes (T1–T5). It then assesses the subjects’ subjective cognition and level of relaxation–arousal responses using the α/β value in the EEG data and the three subjective scale indexes of “Interest”, “Comfort”, and “Vitality”. The study’s findings demonstrated the following: 1. All three scores increased in the transformation scenarios, and subjects’ subjective assessments varied significantly across all five sets of scenes. 2. In all α/β values where significant differences existed, every electrode demonstrated a relaxation response in the transformation scenes (T1–T5) compared to the current scenes (C1–C5), whereas the T8 electrode demonstrated the only arousal response. 3. The Pz electrode in the parietal lobe area was found to be the most sensitive to the visual response to the green landscape and the form of the building façade along the street, and the T8 electrode in the right temporal lobe area was the most sensitive to the response to the overall perception of the surrounding environment, according to a comparison of the longitudinal α/β value. More options for rural streetscape design as well as fresh insights and methodologies for assessing the rural human environment in the future are anticipated from this study.
