Does satisfactory neighbourhood environment lead to a satisfying life? An investigation of the association between neighbourhood environment and life satisfaction in Beijing (2017, unknown): “Paul metropolitan area, Cao (2016) applies structural equation models to estimate the direct and indirect effects on life satisfaction of objective neighbourhood characteristics and subjective residential satisfaction, and reports significant correlations between neighbourhood design, especially…”
The subjective wellbeing of migrants in Guangzhou, China: The impacts of the social and physical environment (2017, background): “…the fastest-growing sub-fields of SWB research is the understanding of the impact of one's residential environment on his or her SWB (Helliwell & Putnam, 2004; Brereton, Clinch, & Ferreira, 2008; Berry & Okulicz-Kozaryn, 2011; Morrison, 2011; Florida et al., 2013; Glaeser et al., 2014; Cao, 2016).”
Rethinking how built environments influence subjective well-being: a new conceptual framework (2018, background): “The few empirical studies that have focused on the relationship between neighborhood characteristics and SWB use neighborhood satisfaction as a mediating variable (Cao 2016; Sirgy and Cornwell 2002) or no mediating variables at all (Kyttä et al. 2016).”
Travel satisfaction revisited : on the pivotal role of travel satisfaction in conceptualizing a travel behavior process (2017, result): “…in urban neighbourhoods due to higher densities, while other studies suggest positive effects of urban living on well-being, caused by higher accessibility to destinations and more opportunities for satisfaction of individual’s needs (Brereton et al., 2008; Cao, 2016; Schwanen and Wang, 2014).”
Exploring the link between neighborhood environment and mental wellbeing: A case study in Beijing, China (2017, background): “…overwhelmingly on physical health; the potential role of urban form in increasing people’s positive mental wellbeing is understudied (Delbosc, 2012; Pfeiffer & Cloutier, 2016), even though facilitating life satisfaction has long been one of the most important goals of urban planners (Cao, 2016).”
Transport disadvantage, social exclusion, and subjective well-being: The role of the neighborhood environment—evidence from Sydney, Australia (2018, result): “This is contrary to a recent study (Cao, 2016) who found a small but negative association between density and SWB.”
Do satisfying walking and cycling trips result in more future trips with active travel modes? An exploratory study (2019, background): “As some studies indicate lower levels of life satisfaction in urban areas due to higher densities, while other studies suggest positive effects of urban living on well-being due to higher accessibility to destinations and more opportunities to satisfy individual needs (Brereton, Clinch, & Ferreira, ”
