<p>This study examines how CPTED maintenance strategies affect public perceptions of burglary vulnerability in detached housing.

Using Virtual Reality (VR) simulation, 32 participants evaluated 10 scenarios: two baseline conditions (architecturally vulnerable/resistant houses) and eight with maintenance variables (deterrence/facilitation). While architectural factors showed consistent influence on vulnerability perceptions, maintenance variables produced varied effects.

摘要

This study examines how CPTED maintenance strategies affect public perceptions of burglary vulnerability in detached housing. Unlike designer-focused CPTED approaches, maintenance relies on active resident participation. Using Virtual Reality (VR) simulation, 32 participants evaluated 10 scenarios: two baseline conditions (architecturally vulnerable/resistant houses) and eight with maintenance variables (deterrence/facilitation). While architectural factors showed consistent influence on vulnerability perceptions, maintenance variables produced varied effects. Occupancy presence indicators (lights inside, parked car inside, accumulated newspapers/mail) and visibility from neighbors demonstrated strong effects. However, parked car outside and yard trash showed unexpected results, suggesting context-dependent effectiveness. The significant experimental results validate VR simulation as an effective tool for security strategy communication. By emphasizing user engagement and evidence-based maintenance behaviors, this study provides practical insights for sustainable burglary prevention efforts.
