This volume is intended to provide an overview and scholarly
analysis of state-of-the-art developments within the field of
environmental simulation research. Environmental simulation
involves the presentation of scale model previews, full-scale
mock-ups, and computer images of planned environments and
activities taking place within them to designers and to prospective
users of those settings. Environmental simulations are under taken
for many purposes, including (1) the training of environmental de
sign students and professionals, (2) the assessment of people's
environ mental preferences, and (3) the incorporation of observers'
assessments of simulated settings into the planning, design, and
renovation of actual envi ronments to maximize the degree of fit
between occupants' needs and the arrangement of their physical
surroundings. Environmental simulation research has expanded
rapidly during the past two decades as the result of increasing
collaboration between behav ioral and social scientists,
environmental designers, and professional plan ners. During this
period, alternative conceptual and methodological ap proaches to
environmental simulation have emerged, and numerous programs of
simulation research have been initiated worldwide. To date,
however, no attempt has been made to present a comprehensive review
and assessment of these research developments and an analysis of
their implications for design and public policy. Accordingly, the
major objectives of this volume are to provide an overview of key
conceptual and meth odological advances within the field of
environmental simulation research and to place these diverse
developments within a broader scientific and public policy context.
