Nowcasting Entrepreneurship: Urban Third Place versus the Creative Class

Researchers have long debated whether entrepreneurship policy should focus on place or people. In this paper, we extend the place-based versus people-based theories using contemporaneous and geographically granular web-user online activity data to predict a region’s proclivity for entrepreneurship. We compare two theoretical hypotheses: the urban third places—informal gathering locations—that facilitate social interaction and entrepreneurship, in contrast to the creative class which fosters entrepreneurial energy and opportunity in a region. Specifically, we assess whether business formation has a stronger statistical relationship with the browsing behavior of individuals visiting websites associated with third place locations—e.g., restaurants or bars—or the concentration of web browsing behavior associated with “the creative class”. Using U.S. county-level data, we find that both urban third places and the creative class can predict about 70% of the variations in regional business formation, with the creative class having a slight competitive edge.

Establishing and Testing a Quantitative Measure for Evolving Third Place Characteristics

Third places offer and promote social experiences beneficial for building interpersonal relationships. This study has two goals: 1) establish a scale that tests if an environment is characteristic of third place characteristics and 2) use this scale with four virtual environments (Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, and Twitter) to test the proficiency of third place characteristics as representative of virtual third places. A research-informed scale was created and tested with a sample of 354 participants. Confirmatory factor analysis verified a nine-factor solution, with each subscale reporting acceptable reliability (range: .89 to .96). This scale was tested with 140 participants to verify if certain social media qualified as third places. MANOVAs revealed that Facebook adheres most closely to the majority of third place characteristics, followed by Snapchat, Instagram, and Twitter respectively. The proposed scale can be used with other virtual environments to measure if they qualify as third places.

A Study on the Biological Activity of Commonly Consumed Spring Herbs in Korea

Purpose: This study was conducted to study the superiority of Korean spring herbs by selecting eight spring herbs that are commonly consumed in Korea and evaluating their biological activity.Methods: Antioxidant (total polyphenol content, total flavonoid content, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity and 2,2'-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline–6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) radical scavenging activity) and enzyme activities (α-glucosidase inhibitory activity and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity) were measured using the hot-water extract of the selected spring herbs.Results: In case of total polyphenol content, the shepherd’s purse, daylily, and gomchwi took first, second, and third place. In case of total flavonoid content, rape, shepherd’s purse and mugwort took first, second, and third place, and in case of DPPH radical scavenging activity, shepherd’s purse, daylily, and rape took first, second, and third place. In case of ABTS radical scavenging activity, the shepherd’s purse, mugwort and rape took first, second, and third place. In case of α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, mugwort, gomchwi, and wild garlic were classified in the first, second, and third place. Lastly, Korean angelica tree, rape, and wild garlic were classified in the first, second, and third, in case of ACE inhibitory activity.Conclusion: From these results, among the selected spring herbs, the shepherd’s purse and rape showed exceptional effects in antioxidant activity, mugwort in antidiabetic activity, and Korean angelica tree sprout in antihypertensive activity, respectively. Therefore, the present study is expected to provide basic data for future development of foods using spring herbs to remedy lifestyle-related diseases.

Measure the impressions of users of smart applications for performing Umrah, prayers, and visits in the Grand Mosque and the Prophet's Mosque: Field Study: قياس انطباع مستخدمي التطبيقات الذكية الخاصة بأداء العمرة، والصلوات، والزيارة في المسجد الحرام والمسجد النبوي: دراسة ميدانية

The study aimed to measure the impressions of users of smart applications for performing Umrah, prayers, and visits in the Grand Mosque and the Prophet's Mosque. In order to achieve the objectives of the study, the descriptive and analytical approach was used, and the study sample consisted of (412) users of smart applications, and a questionnaire was designed to measure the users ’impression consisting of four main axes, the results showed: The axis (the benefit of users of smart applications in (Creating spacing) and limiting the spread of Corona disease (Covid-19) to a degree (strongly agree), in second place (the impression of users of smart applications for performing Umrah, prayers, and visits in the Grand Mosque and the Prophet's Mosque) with a degree (strongly agree), in the third place came the axis (the extent to which users of special smart applications benefit (by their performance) Umrah, prayers, and visits in the Grand Mosque and the Prophet's Mosque) with a degree (strongly agree), in the last place (Challenges of using smart applications for performing Umrah, prayers, and visiting in the Grand Mosque and the Prophet's Mosque), with a degree of (neutral). The study recommended the need to educate visitors and pilgrims about the importance and how to use the Smart applications for Umrah, pilgrimage and prayers, and the necessity to continuously develop applications based on user feedback and the results of studies to achieve the best service for visitors, and work to integrate all these applications into one application to facilitate its use, and the need for the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah to pay attention to supervising the content provided through the available interactive applications.

Architecture Without Expectation: Designing a third place for mental wellbeing in the community

<p>In 2018, the government published the report of its inquiry into mental health and addiction in Aotearoa New Zealand, which called for a ‘paradigm shift’ in the country’s approach to mental wellbeing. This research portfolio explores the role architecture has to play in this shift, acknowledging the problematic historical associations of architecture and mental health. In doing so, the work aims to establish principles for a new architectural typology of mental health care, outside of conventional institutions. It explores contemporary approaches to wellness, and integrates research from several bodies of theoretical and evidence-based research into a new creative practice within architecture. Specifically, the research draws on theory around nonrepresentational therapeutic landscapes, third place and evidence based design. These inform creative explorations of the therapeutically affective qualities of naturally-sourced materials. The findings of this explorations are transferred to spatial design using a ‘multiplicity’ approach based on nonrepresentational theory and Māori health models, which is then applied to a specific site in Wellington, New Zealand. Finally, architectural applications for this research are proposed in the form of a community-based third place to support mental health and wellbeing.</p>

How does the public benefit from green space?

<p>Research shows that urban green spaces are a straightforward way for many people to interact with nature. This interaction provides physical and mental health benefits, provides us with a range of ecosystems services, and fosters a unique sense of place. In a central city park we experience shared public space where we navigate social and cultural norms and adjust our behaviour. This research uses third place as a framework for examining the benefits of shared public space. Ray Oldenburg developed third place to describe the importance of places where informal social interactions occur. Cafes, libraries and pubs all form key social hubs for local communities. This thesis examines the extent to which green spaces in Wellington’s central city area provide third place. This research conducted a survey of the public in three central city parks in Wellington and long interviews with key stakeholders from inside and outside the Wellington City Council (the Council). Results show how the public use and value green spaces and examines the Council’s role as the authority of these urban green spaces. As the urban population rises, the availability and quality of green space in the central city will become a challenge for the Council. These research findings can be used to address this challenge. Design solutions, community engagement, and activation, can reduce barriers to green space, like accessibility. Without these barriers, more people experience the benefits of green spaces and our public parks become places where people relax, socialise, and enjoy their time.</p>
