Preferred term

physical environment and relationships  

Definition

  • Personal and professional relationships are embedded in physical environments—residences, offices, city streets, and so on. Researchers study these settings with respect to how they support or undermine relationship processes and how people use the physical environment as intrinsic aspects of relationships.
