Understanding the relationship between spatial characteristics and intergenerational preferences remains challenging. The objective of this study is to clarify the specific phenomena of intergenerational segregation between young (18–35) and older (60+) residents in neighborhood streets in Shenzhen, and to explore the potential for improving intergenerational relations through spatial optimization. The research question is: What specific intergenerational segregation phenomena exist in neighborhood street public spaces in Shenzhen, and how to optimize the street public spaces in neighborhoods to address spatial intergenerational segregations? We employ SVI) and non-facial human form recognition to identify pedestrian ages, combined with spatial structural and experiential indicators, to quantitatively analyze the differences in public space usage among different generational groups. Our findings highlight that: Spatial experiential indicators play a more critical role in bridging intergenerational segregations, with contributions from walkways and imageability being more significant. Although bottom-up indicators are more effective in conveying spatial experience, macro spatial structural indicators also play a supportive role in bridging intergenerational gaps. Besides, collaborative analysis reveals that young and elderly residents differ in their preferences for the distribution of green spaces but agree on attitudes towards greenery in neighborhoods. Additionally, intergenerational spatial segregation are primarily reflected in openness, building density, and street connectivity. The inclusive residential planning recommendations we proposed shed fresh light on spatial equity and neighborhood cohesion.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48405,"journal":{"name":"Cities","volume":"168 ","pages":"Article 106410"},"PeriodicalIF":6.6,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144926018","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A large body of research on masculinity and fear has found men to express fear in public space to a lesser extent than women, perpetuating a notion of men as ‘fearless’. In this study, we challenge this notion by seeking a better understanding of men's overall fear of victimization as well as how fear impacts their behavior where they live, in relation to places, people, and everyday routines. Using statistical methods, chi-square analysis and binary logistic regression, we investigate the nature of men's fear and the effect fear has on their lives using 20,781 answers from the 2020 Stockholm Safety Survey. Findings indicate that while men are generally less fearful than women, intersections between respondents' gender, income level, and ethnic background show a complementary picture. Foreign-born and low-income resident men expressed similar or even higher levels of neighborhood fear than women. Additionally, the drivers of men's general fear of crime and neighborhood-related fear were found to differ, where results for Swedish-born and foreign-born men show opposing patterns for each measure. Men who live in neighborhoods with more physical disorder and low social cohesion are also more likely to avoid places and engagement with people where they live, as well as changing routine activities. The paper finishes with recommendations for future research.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48405,"journal":{"name":"Cities","volume":"168 ","pages":"Article 106402"},"PeriodicalIF":6.6,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144922290","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Employing longitudinal data from two large private household surveys, we apply method of moments and OLS estimators to fixed and random effects models to capture the dynamic response of energy demand to changes in price and income. Our findings reveal significant heterogeneity in elasticities across different income groups. For electricity, short-run price elasticities range from −0.27 for low-income households to −0.44 for high-income households, with long-run elasticities varying from −0.22 to −0.64. Gas price elasticities show an inverse relationship with income, spanning from −0.64 for low-income to −0.11 for high-income households in the short run, and from −0.58 to −0.15 in the long run. Car fuel price elasticities, which we were not able to differentiate over time, range from −0.47 for low-income to −0.14 for high-income households. Income elasticities also exhibit notable variability. For electricity, short-run income elasticities decrease from 0.048 for low-income households to insignificance for high-income households. Short-run income elasticities of gas demand follow a similar pattern, starting from 0.079 and decreasing with rising income. Contrastingly, income elasticities of car fuel demand increase with income from 0.060 for low-income households to 0.443 for high-income households. Our results underscore the necessity of incorporating socioeconomic factors into energy policy design to enhance effectiveness and equity in promoting energy conservation and investments in energy efficiency and electricity generation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11672,"journal":{"name":"Energy Policy","volume":"207 ","pages":"Article 114850"},"PeriodicalIF":9.2,"publicationDate":"2025-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144920078","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Three tenure categories are explored: homeowners who own both home and land (own–own), homeowners who do not own land – often paying to rent it (own–rent) and home renters who also rent their land (rent–rent). A new nationally representative US survey sheds light on the characteristics of these residents, with a focus on metropolitan compared with non-metropolitan locations, landownership, house titling, the type of home financing used by borrowers and financial stability. This survey provides detail previously unavailable in other data. Results show that US MH buyers are much less likely to use mortgages compared with site-built home buyers. Instead, MH owners who currently have a loan for their home are more likely to use home-only (‘personal property’ or ‘chattel’ loans) or contract financing arrangements such as rent-to-own, seller financing or contract for deed. Mortgages have the strongest consumer protections, so use of these alternatives leaves buyers more at risk of eviction, foreclosure and financial instability. Challenges with access to mortgage financing and robust consumer protections are especially acute for MH owners in metropolitan areas because they are more likely to rent their land. However, local-, state- and federal-level policy updates can improve access to safe and affordable homeownership, and for renters, policymakers can mandate formal lease agreements to improve housing stability.","PeriodicalId":51350,"journal":{"name":"Urban Studies","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144920970","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To trace changing narratives and expectations, publicly available scientific and technical reports published by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and the International Energy Agency between 1990 and 2023 were analysed. In addition, practical insights were gathered through semi-structured interviews with stakeholders from academia and business to assess current views on CCUS deployment and its commercial potential. Findings indicate that while interest in CCUS technologies has grown over time, actual deployment continues to lag far behind the levels required to meet earlier projections and climate targets. Financial and regulatory challenges remain persistent obstacles. By combining document analysis with stakeholder insights, this research contributes to the understanding of the structural and discursive factors that shape the persistent gap between CCUS’s theoretical promise and its real-world outcomes.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48384,"journal":{"name":"Energy Research & Social Science","volume":"127 ","pages":"Article 104308"},"PeriodicalIF":7.4,"publicationDate":"2025-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144916531","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
