“…Variations appeared among the various respondent groups in due to their occupation and background as well as gender. According to Ibrahim et al (2002), architects develop different perceptions and evaluation responses of the architectural form than others. Liu and Chuang (2014) indicated that the professional training and experience of architects appeared to have the main effect on their judgment of buildings.…”

“…While the interpretative dimension includes the meaning or associations that have derived from the environment, the evaluative one involves values, preferences and the determination of "good" or "bad." Aesthetic perception is highly subjective and influenced by several variables such as gender, age, education and cultural background (S anchez-Pantoja et al, 2018;Liu and Chuang, 2014;Ibrahim et al, 2002).…”

Purpose This study aims to evaluate the effect of the installed photovoltaic (PV) systems on the aesthetic perception of the mosque’s architectural form. It also aims to develop a framework for integrating PV cells with the various elements of the building type. Design/methodology/approach The study adopted a mixed-method approach comprising both qualitative and quantitative techniques for data collection procedures. This includes surveys, literature review, focus groups and an experiment. Findings The results revealed a negative impact of the building-applied PV panels on people’s perception of the mosque’s architectural form. However, integrating the PV cells with the mosque form was perceived as more aesthetically pleasing. Certain integrating PV strategies integrated more harmoniously with certain mosque styles. Research limitations/implications This study is focused on limited styles of one building type. Extra research is needed to explore the differences between the different participated groups. Originality/value There is a lack of research that explores the ways the installed PV systems impact the users’ architectural aesthetic perception of the mosque. This study informs the design process and practice and construction industry by highlighting the opportunities PV systems, as a legitimate sustainable energy resource, offers to architects and manufacturers.

“…Endopathy encompasses an aesthetic that turns the object into a symbol by projecting a feeling onto such an object [25,26], so that the use made of a constructed space allows the users to orient, identify, and recognize themselves within it [27][28][29][30]. In addition, the feeling also emanates from the object itself, which provokes positive or negative affective or empathic responses [31], giving rise to a certain level of mental well-being [32][33][34]. These affective reactions are due to the establishment of aesthetic rules based primarily on shapes (e.g., horizontal line: rationality; straight line: strength; curved line: flexibility; square: certainty, integrity; circle: balance, control) [30,[35][36][37].…”

Based on the transactional and salutogenic perspectives, we explored individual profiles that integrate psychosocial factors and compositional elements of the built home environment. Adults with different socio-demographic characteristics completed several self-report measures on psychological factors (personality traits, self-efficacy, mental health, and happiness) and architectural elements constituting the ideal home environment. Adopting an individual-centered perspective, three distinct intra-individual psycho-architectural (person-environment) profiles were found with different compositional preferences and psychosocial characteristics in terms of functioning, health, and well-being: endopathic (characterized by higher levels of psychosocial resources and well-being indicating a highly adapted and successful profile, and architectural preferences corresponding to their identities and experiences—expression through spaces), assimilative (characterized by average levels in all regulatory parameters indicating moderately adaptive individuals, and architectural preferences of spaces created in interactive processes—introjection of spaces), and additive individuals (characterized by a comparatively dysfunctional, poorer psychosocial profile, and architectural preferences in line with provoking a restorative effect—change with spaces). An awareness of the psychosocial features of the users for whom the homes are built can help in designing spaces to inhabit that are adapted to them for an enhancement of their overall well-being. Therefore, a better understanding of the interconnections between psychology and architecture will help in designing healthy spaces.

“…The findings of this group of research are not focused (Nadal, 2007), some researchers have obtained significant results (e.g., Jankowski, Francuz, Oleś, & Chmielnicka-Kuter, 2018;Swami & Furnham, 2012;Chamorro-Premuzic, Burke, Hsu, & Swami, 2010;Chamorro-Premuzic, Reimers, Hsu, & Ahmetoglu, 2009;Feist & Brady, 2004;Rawlings, 2003;Furnham & Walker, 2001a, 2001bFurnham & Avison, 1997;Furnham & Bunyan, 1988); whereas some others have not been able to get any meaningful results (e.g., Pietras & Czernecka, 2018;Palmer & Griscom, 2013;McManus, Cook, & Hunt, 2010;Griscom & Palmer, 2010;Furnham & Chamorro-Premuzic, 2004;Zuckerman, Ulrich, & McLaughlin, 1993). This lack of focus could be seen in visual preferences in most of the architecture studies as well (e.g., Cleridou & Furnham, 2014;Dębek & Janda-Dębek, 2012;Cook & Furnham, 2012;Ibrahim, Abu-Obeid, & Al-Simadi, 2002;Stamps & Nasar, 1997) as an art with a multisensory nature.…”

It is often believed and expected that a clear relationship exists between human personality and human preferences in architecture. However, by reviewing the findings of previous studies, it is found out that such expectation is not necessarily true, as there is no consistency among previous findings. This study provides a critical review and overall classification of various research approaches and assessment methods used in previous studies. In addition, the theoretical and practical shortcomings of each approach have been introduced. Next, the psychological approach is recommended as a more feasible one, and the studies carried out using this approach are structurally analyzed. The theoretical frameworks, strategies and the execution tactics of these researches were critically reviewed. Finally, a systematic quadruple model was suggested for evaluating aesthetic experiences and judgments. After presenting the manifest and the hidden variables with this model, machine learning helped to discover the hidden patterns in the personality and human preferences.
