Dear colleagues,
I am looking for software for Systems mapping and Causal loop diagrams. It would be wonderful if any of you with experience in this could share some information.
Have you used any? Any advice or feedback? Pros and cons?
Thanks in advance,
Fabio
Hi all,
Do you have any methodology used to measure population exposure to outdoor PM2.5? I have temporal PM2.5 data and have a set of area wise census population data. In addition, I will have sample based socio-economic and health data too. How do I measure population at risk or their exposure?
These are theories with which I'm familiar so far:
1) Attention Restoration Theory
2) Predictive and Reactive Control
3) Natural settings evoke meditative-like states (which in turn reduce rumination, which prompts a sympathetic nervous system trend towards a more relaxed state)
What other compelling theories are out there that specifically address (or at least explore) the neural, psychological and/or biological mechanisms by which interaction with nature helps to reduce stress...?
(Responses that include links to quality resources would be appreciated.)
Many thanks!
Catherine
