• Fear versus fascination: An exploration of emotional responses to natural threats (2005, unknown): “In recent years, a second line of research has emerged that has studied predictors of negative reactions to visual representations of forest and field settings (Herzog & Kutzli, 2002; Herzog & Kropscott, 2004 ).”
• Mystery and Preference in Within-Forest Settings (2007, methodology): “Legibility has been the least researched of the predictors, but recent studies have been supportive (e.g., Herzog & Kropscott, 2004; Herzog & Leverich, 2003).”
• Space and Place - Two Aspects of the Human-landscape Relationship (2007, background): “For example, Hull and Stewart (1995) found that the men and women in their sample focused on different things when moving through a landscape.”
• Perceptual Evaluation of Natural Landscapes (2015, methodology): “According to the contents of their preference matrix, Herzog and Kropscott (2004) developed a set of questions to define the four predictors of the preference matrix, including coherence, complexity, legibility, and mystery. After comparing the set of questions with the four predictors defined by R.”
• Variations in perceptions of danger, fear and preference in a simulated natural environment (2010, background): “…work within natural environments that has demonstrated that variables contributing to visibility and locomotor access are negatively related to perceived danger and fear but positively related to preference (e.g. Chapin, 1991; Herzog & Kirk, 2005; Herzog & Kropscott, 2004; Herzog & Kutzli, 2002).”
