Place attachment and walkability and their associations with walking in urban neighbourhoods.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Place attachment has yet to be explored in relation to objectively measured neighbourhood walkability and walking. We aimed to estimate the associations between place identity (PI) and place dependence (PD) and walking for recreation (WR) and transportation (WT) among urban adults, and to assess the modifying role of neighbourhood walkability. We analyzed cross-sectional data from 2006 Calgary adults (2007-2008), including PI, PD, and walking. Neighbourhood walkability was determined via street pattern. Generalized linear models assessed associations (odds ratios [OR] and incidence rate ratios [IRR]) and interactions between place attachment, walkability, and walking. PI was lower in curvilinear versus warped grid neighbourhoods. PD was associated (p < 0.05) with sufficient WT (≥ 150 min/week) in curvilinear (OR 1.92) and grid (OR 1.62) neighbourhoods. PI was associated with sufficient WR (ORs 1.58-1.82) and more frequent WT and WR (IRRs 1.17-1.41). Findings highlight nuanced relationships between the built environment, place attachment, and walking.
