“…Our perception of emotional, physiological, and cognitive function was influenced by the built environment [10,11], and design elements including shape, layout, materials, scale, and color have been found to correlate with emotional reactions in neuro-scientific experiments [12]. Curvilinear formal spaces resulted in more joyful experiences [13]; natural materials lower stress and anxiety and increase physiological and cognitive function [14].…”

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.

Targeting the issue of emotional deficiency in rural human environments, this study combines electroencephalogram (EEG) and virtual reality (VR) technologies thus we choose as experimental images the current situation scenes of five rural main street nodes as well as the comparative transformation scenes. It then assesses the subjects' subjective cognition and level of relaxation-arousal responses using the α/β index in the EEG data and the three subjective scale indexes of "Interested," "Comfortable," and "Sense of vitality." The study's findings demonstrated that: 1. All three scores increased in the transformation scenarios, and subjects' subjective assessments varied significantly across all five sets of scenes. 2. Every transformation scene showed relaxation responses in comparison to status quo scenes, except for the T8 electrode, which displayed the only arousal response in the second set of scenes, out of all the α/β index values that were substantially different. 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 values. 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.

La investigación se desarrolla basada en las interacciones de relación entre la educación sensorial y la cohesión social. Estructurado en las teorías del docente efectivo, teoría de la actuación educativa exitosa, y la teoría del aprendizaje incorporado, teniendo como objetivo determinar fases y etapas, determinación de componentes y la construcción de propuesta de matriz de interacciones. La óptica de diseño investigativo documental, con una proposición de metodología cualitativa – inductiva, se desarrolla en 6 fases y 18 etapas, con el uso de matrices de relación por etapas y fases, arribando a la discusión con la matriz teórica de interacciones, contrastando los resultados con las teorías bajo dos niveles de relación, las teorías con sus etapas, y los criterios – indicadores con los componentes, llegando a las conclusiones mediante la identificación y reafirmación de las interacciones relacionales del constructo formación sensorial cohesiva.
