Second, the "2007 study" can only report on its own subjects. I find it very condescending for a psychologist to interpret these findings as an automatic dislike or fear of modern architecture based from a study. Moreover, most, if not the majority, of modern dwellings embrace nature with large windows that bring the outside in to the structure.
