“…In research on the construct of evaluation, both quantitative research using factor analysis, etc., and qualitative research using the evaluation grid method, can be found. As subjects of research, urban and street scenes (Maki et al 1994, 1995, Oyama et al 1997, impressions of indoor spaces (Nagata et al 1996, Maki andSawa 1999), etc., that is, mostly visual factors, have been used, but research on auditory environment (Hayashi andYasuoka 1996, Tsuchida 1996) can also be found.…”

This paper discussed the construct of evaluation in a combined environment of visual and auditory stimuli. In particular, we pointed out the relationship between a harmonious sensation of the two stimuli and comprehensive comfortableness. Ten subjects were asked to rate the image of twenty scenes on slides and sounds. In Experiment 1, they rated the individual image of each stimulus and in Experiment 2, they rated the combined image of the scene and sound.As a result of the experiments it became clear that the effect of a harmonious sensation on comprehensive comfortableness is not direct, but works indirectly through the evaluations "Calming" or "Pleasant." This indirect evaluation mechanism changes according to comfortableness of the combined stimuli. In a combination in which both stimuli are felt to be uncomfortable, although the stimuli are in harmony with each other, they are not felt to be "Calming" or "Pleasant," and therefore the comprehensive comfortableness is not high. On the other hand, when a comfortable stimulus is included, or when there is a great difference between the visual comfortableness and the auditory comfortableness, the harmony of the scene and sound caused the "Calmness" or "Pleasantness," and these combined stimuli are felt to be comfortable.

“…As pointed out by Maki et al (1994), the results of the factor analyses in these studies greatly depends on the scales used in the evaluation and the composition of the stimuli presented. As a result, a simple comparison is difficult, but does reveal that what sorts of scales are connected to the CC and the HS vary according to the study.…”

Ttzleemi MSUGIY?IMA* de te e Research on sustainable design often emphasizes the biophysical aspects of the environment and tends to neglect .its socio-perceptual aspects, Howcver, perception of sustainable design is. an important factor in promoting public acceptance, An ernpirical study employing the concept of environmental preference was conducted to explore this aspect of sustainable design. One hundred and fifty-eight Japanese university students panicipated in the researeh, TTie study found a significant correlation betwecn participants' preferences for sustainable design and their evaluations of sustainability, It was a]so suggested that several other constructs are likely to be involved in preferences for sustainable design.
