Schemas

12.0K
A schema is a mental construct consisting of a cluster or collection of related concepts (Bartlett, 1932). There are many different types of schemata, and they all have one thing in common: schemata are a method of organizing information that allows the brain to work more efficiently. When a schema is activated, the brain makes immediate assumptions about the person or object being observed.

Design Example: Sustainability in Concrete Building

223
As the construction industry moves towards more eco-friendly practices, concrete's adaptability and its ability to incorporate sustainable features make it a key material in the drive towards greener building solutions.
There are multiple approaches to achieve sustainability in a commercial concrete building. For instance, construct a concrete parking area under the building, utilizing pervious concrete paver blocks in open areas to facilitate rainwater collection through an underground...

Area of Science:

  • Urban planning and public health
  • Environmental impacts on physical activity

Background:

  • Major urban reconstruction projects can alter the built environment.
  • Understanding how these changes affect physical activity (PA) is crucial for public health.
  • New infrastructure may encourage active transportation, but its impact on PA behavior needs investigation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the effects of a major urban reconstruction on physical activity (PA) behavior.
  • To compare physical activity intensity hotspots before and after the construction of new walking and cycling infrastructure.

Main Methods:

  • 126 participants wore GPS loggers and accelerometers to measure location and PA.
  • Geographic Information System (GIS) was used for optimized hotspot analysis of PA data.
  • Data were collected before and after the highway tunneling and new infrastructure implementation.

Main Results:

  • Significant changes in PA intensity hotspots were observed after the urban reconstruction.
  • PA hotspots became more interconnected, utilizing the new walking and cycling infrastructure.
  • These behavioral changes were consistent across individuals with different educational backgrounds.

Conclusions:

  • Urban infrastructure changes can influence PA behavior patterns, even if overall PA levels remain unchanged.
  • The new infrastructure served as a central connection point for increased PA intensity hotspots.
  • Built environment modifications can impact behavior, underscoring the importance of detailed analysis beyond population-level outcomes.
