Similarly, ‘displays <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> affecti<strong>on</strong>’ (such as holding h<strong>and</strong>s, kissing, hugging, having <strong>on</strong>e’s arm<br />

active, as well as a period <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> higher levels following <str<strong>on</strong>g>the</str<strong>on</strong>g> c<strong>on</strong>clusi<strong>on</strong> <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>the</str<strong>on</strong>g> exhibiti<strong>on</strong> as shown<br />
by figure 5.18. This is significant in relati<strong>on</strong> to establishing an attachment to place; displays <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />

also change <str<strong>on</strong>g>the</str<strong>on</strong>g> experience <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> place by creating a more social <strong>and</strong> hospitable atmosphere by<br />
changing <str<strong>on</strong>g>the</str<strong>on</strong>g> typical social behaviours in a space.<br />
