Abstract:
... This paper provides an international perspective on visual resource stewardship. It examines the long history of Britain’s love affair with its landscapes and its abandonment of measuring the subjective element of landscape quality, focusing instead on landscape character, which could be objectively assessed. This paper summarises the development of the European Landscape Convention, which has bee ...

Abstract:
... Protected areas (PAs) deliver a wide variety of benefits to visitors including mental and physical health, environmental knowledge, and a sense of community. Unfortunately, many barriers have led to the underrepresentation of several socio-demographic groups within PAs (e.g., minority ethnic groups, those with disabilities). In the UK, a clear national mandate exists for designing more accessible ...

Abstract:
... BACKGROUND: Existing research suggests that physical access to food can affect diet quality and thus obesity rates. When defining retail food environment (RFE) quantitatively, there is a little agreement on how to measure “lack of healthy food” and what parameters to use, resulting in a heterogeneity of study designs and outcome measures. In turn, this leads to a conflicting evidence base being on ...

Abstract:
... Children’s tendency to eat while they are emotional, irrespective of satiety, is termed emotional eating (EE). EE develops early in childhood and has been associated with maternal modelling of EE and food parenting practices. In addition, individual differences in a child’s appetitive traits (ie, food approach behaviors) are related to the development of EE. The objective of this study was to exam ...
