A Conceptual Model for Understanding the Physical Attributes of Learning Environments.
Fulton, Rodney D.
New Directions for Adult and Continuing Education, n50 p13-22 Sum 1991
The SPATIAL model (satisfaction, perception, achievement, transcendent/immanent attributes, authority, layout) posits that (1) individual perception of space affects satisfaction, participation, and achievement; (2) certain aspects of a space are subjective or beyond physical attributes; and (3) authority and layout are external and can be changed.
