Most of the slums are in the form of scattered construction and chaotic gatherings that do not follow any planning standards. This paper aims to present and analyze the mechanisms of urban upgrading of two models of slums in the city of Baghdad and London. The treatment was through the urban development of these slums and the provision and improvement of services to reduce the phenomenon of total removal. The GIS program was used to calculate the urban variables and requirements, the optimal locations for services, and the total and partial removal percentages. The research achieved the lowest percentage of total and partial removal of the actual areas, which amounted to 7.31% in the first model and 14.26% in the second model. The slum area was also provided with all the necessary services in accordance with the urban housing standards specific to each city, to turn it into a residential neighborhood instead of calling it a slum region.","PeriodicalId":72667,"journal":{"name":"Computational urban science","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134958602","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, these new dynamics, especially for non-essential experience goods which were heavily impacted by lockdowns, remain relatively unexplored. Moreover, variations in such dynamics within the same product class are not well understood. This study investigates the interactions between online and in-store shopping behaviors across four categories of non-essential experience goods: clothing, shoes, watches, and jewelry (CSWJ); beauty and health products (BH); toys, kids, and baby supplies (TKB); and home, garden, and tools (HGT). Data from over 2,000 Florida residents collected in early 2021, encompassing purchase frequencies, attitudes, and socio-demographic attributes, were analyzed using separate bidirectional structural equation models. Findings indicate that the relationship between online and in-store shopping for CSWJ and TKB exhibited reciprocal complementarity effects. In contrast, BH and HGT displayed an asymmetric reciprocal relationship, with in-store shopping showing no significant influence on online shopping. Results on the mediating influence of attitudes on shopping behaviors showed that a pro-online shopping attitude and preference for alternative travel modes positively influenced online shopping frequency, while the joy of shopping and data privacy/security concerns emerged as drivers of in-store shopping across all product categories. In sum, this study underscores the presence of product-specific heterogeneity even within the experience goods class, contributing to the complex interactions between online and in-store shopping behaviors.","PeriodicalId":72667,"journal":{"name":"Computational urban science","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134990410","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
