Gender-role and housing preferences
Journal of Environmental Psychology, 1994Co-Authors: Ann Sloan DevlinAbstract:Abstract This study was conducted to determine whether relationships exist between gender-role and housing preferences. One hundred and thirteen undergraduate students, 76 women and 35 men (2 subjects did not record their sex) completed the Bem Sex Role Inventory ( Bem, 1981 ), a background questionnaire, and rated two sets of housing stimuli for residential preference. One set of eight Houses was developed by Kinzy ( Langdon, 1982 ), the other set of six Houses was used previously by Nasar (1989) . Kinzy's eight Houses comprised Modern, Contemporary, Mediterranean, Tudor, Farm, Colonial, Early American and Ranch Styles, whereas Nasar's were a Contemporary, Mediterranean, Tudor, Farm, Colonial, and Saltbox. The results of this study reveal some support for the relationship between gender-role and housing preference, as well as some indication of the kinds of housing Styles people prefer (and dislike). Related to House Style preferences, the results also indicate that architectural renderings of a particular House Style can influence these preference judgments. Additional findings point to the fact that the kind of locale (suburban/rural or urban) in which one's family resides can influence housing preference. Some indication of regional preference differences also emerged.

House Style preference and meanings across taste cultures
Landscape and Urban Planning, 1999Co-Authors: Jack L. Nasar, Junmo KangAbstract:Theorists have speculated that taste cultures differ in their design preferences. To test this, we interviewed 150 adults (30 representing each of the five taste cultures) in central Ohio. We obtained their responses to photographs of House exteriors representing 15 different Styles. Did the taste cultures differ as predicted by the theorists? Not really. The results showed strong similarities in the responses across the groups. However, the similarities decreased as the educational/occupational distance between the groups increased. In findings echoing many other studies, we found strong similarities with highest preferences for the Tudor Style, and highest friendliness score for the Farm Style. Even for Style, preference is not a matter of taste. Widely different groups show commonalities.

Influence of favorite place in House-outdoor or indoor-on energy consumption and happiness in rural Thailand
Sustainability, 2017Co-Authors: Zhang Yuxue, Kayoko Kondo, Artit Chutchaipolrut, Sujitra Arampongpun, Ikuyo KikusawaAbstract:In recent years, with the change in House Styles in rural Thailand, the favorite place in the House and lifeStyle of inhabitants has also altered. This causes an increase in energy use. Therefore, this research was conducted in order to clarify the influence on energy use of the House Style, communication with the neighborhood, and happiness through the favorite place in the House and daily activities. The study identified that people who like to stay in the outside space, such as the open space beneath the House and the garden, showed higher happiness. Spending more time outside helped to communicate with the neighborhood and family, and also to use less the air conditioner and electric fan. Such a lifeStyle contributes to the development of a low carbon society.
