根据环境影响的心理学理论，物理环境调节步行体验及其心理健康益处。本文进一步证明情感体验也会影响行走的意图。据报道，一项研究探讨了步行的情感体验对步行意图的影响。在英国布里斯托尔工作或学习的成年人样本（n = 384）参与了一项实验，该实验涉及虚拟暴露于五种环境之一，并评估他们的情感体验和在该环境中行走的意图。然后，子样本（n = 14）参加了照片引发的半结构化访谈。多元回归分析表明，步行的情感体验影响步行意图。访谈分析强调了交通、城市繁忙和不良审美的影响。这是第一项运用环境影响理论从行人角度审视步行体验和相关步行意图的实证研究。研究结果表明，安全、舒适和适度的感官刺激是步行体验的关键要素。在此之后，可以围绕安全性、舒适性和适度的感官刺激，通过针对阻碍这些因素的微观因素，构建促进建筑环境中主动移动的策略。
According to psychological theories of environmental affect, the physical environment moderates the walking experience and its psychological wellbeing benefits. The present paper further demonstrates that affective experiences also influence intentions to walk. A study to explore the influence of affective experiences of walking on walking intentions is reported. A sample of adults working or studying in Bristol, UK (n = 384) participated in an experiment involving virtual exposure to one of five environments, with evaluations of their affective experience and of intentions to walk in the setting. A subsample (n = 14) then took part in photo-elicited semi structured interviews. Multiple regression analyses showed that affective experiences of walking influenced walking intentions. Interview analyses highlighted the role of traffic, city busyness, and poor aesthetics. This is the first empirical study that examines the walking experience and related walking intentions from the pedestrian perspective employing theories of environmental affect. The findings indicate that safety, comfort, and moderate sensory stimulation are crucial elements for the walking experience. Following this, a strategy to promote active mobility in the built environment can be constructed around safety, comfort, and moderate sensory stimulation by targeting the micro elements that prevent them.
