The comprehensive development of aging-friendly communities has become a significant strategy for addressing the problems brought about by the accelerated aging of population,for which the design of the neighborhood environment is a pivotal aspect.Visual cognition,as the pri-mary means by which humans perceive the external environment,has profound impacts on the environmental preferences and outdoor behaviors of older adults.This paper adopts a visual cognition perspective to explore the key elements and main characteristics of an aging-friendly neighborhood environment.Based on empirical studies conducted in five urban neighborhoods in different Chinese cities using a multi-methodological approach that encompasses auditing,questionnaire,interview,statistical analysis,and textual analysis,the paper examines the principal environmental ele-ments contributing to the visual cognitive preferences of older adults at both individual and neighborhood levels.It proposes suggestions for design-ing aging-friendly neighborhood environment from the visual cognition perspective,which may provide a reference for the development of aging-friendly neighborhoods.
