This study analyzes over 12,000 dyads to demonstrate that while demographics and personality explain a small portion of turn-taking variation, the majority of timing differences are driven by unique speaker, interlocutor, and dyadic interactions that cannot be fully predicted by individual attributes alone.
This study demonstrates that the walking perspective fundamentally reshapes urban soundscape perception by accelerating affective stabilization, selectively amplifying the salience of transient sounds over continuous background noise, and polarizing overall environmental evaluations compared to stationary viewpoints.

Challenging the assumption that national and global identities are antagonistic, this study of South Korean adults reveals that both identities function as complementary, independent drivers of climate engagement, with national identity proving to be a particularly strong motivator for enacted behavior.
Drawing on a corpus of 2,622 texts, this study introduces the concept of "acoustic gentrification" to analyze how the high-decibel nature of pickleball creates spatial conflicts in urban areas, revealing a stark narrative polarization between industry optimism and community resistance that threatens the sport's long-term sustainability.
