Notably, there exists a current gap in considering emotions in urban regeneration projects. Moreover, existing methods for identifying people¡¯s emotional reactions within spatial environments primarily rely on self-reporting, which has significant limitations and heavily depends on participants¡¯ subjective expressions. As a result, it becomes essential to collect and analyze participants¡¯ physiological data using objective measures. This study introduces a systematic approach to acquire unbiased data concerning people¡¯s emotional responses to spatial design. By employing Virtual Reality and Galvanic Skin Response techniques, this proposed method presents a structured framework that enables precise emotional insights from users before finalizing the design. %K Virtual Reality %K Galvanic Skin Response %K Spatial Design %K Emotional Responses %K Research Method %K Urban Regeneration %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=131470
