Author's Title: Understanding the Effects of Cognition in Creative Decision Making: A Creativity Model for Enhancing the Design Studio Process
This study examined how creativity of the person, process, and product (outcome) and the cognitive stages of the design process (i.e., readiness, reception, reflection, revelation, and recreationO’Neill & Shallcross, 1994) were expressed in an interior architecture studio class to gain an understanding of the creative decision making process.
Author's Title: Indoor Air Microbes and Respiratory Symptoms of Children in Moisture Damaged and Reference Schools
A study was conducted to determine what type of school structures are more prone to moisture damage and what impact moisture damage has on children's respiratory health.
Author's Title: The Effect of Ventilation Strategies of Child Care Centers on Indoor Air Quality and Respiratory Health of Children in Singapore
This cross-sectional field study examined the effects of different ventilation systems on indoor air quality (IAQ) and occupant health in child care centers in Singapore.
Author's Title: Clearing the Air: A Model for Investigating Indoor Air Quality in Texas Schools
This pilot study tested the ability of the US Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Tools for Schools program (1995) to identify indoor air quality (IAQ) problems at a high school in Galveston, Texas.
Using Technology to Understand Urban Greenway Use
Author's Title: Urban Greenways, Trail Characteristics and Trail Use: Implications for Design
This study employed remote sensing techniques and geographic information systems (GIS) to examine how urban greenway design characteristics (e.g., viewsheds, vegetation, openness) affected pedestrian traffic levels in Indianapolis, IN.
