Resumo(s)

This study investigates the multi-sensory experience of visitors with hearing impairment (HI) in Hong Kong Wetland Park through spatial mapping of their self-reported positive and negative sensory stimuli, and expres-sion of the overall experience. A series of field visits for a total of 104 sampled voluntary HI participants were set up, applying a modified Sensory Experience Elicitation Protocol (SEEP) instrument in the form of self-administered questionnaire, to extract sensory information. The results show the geographical distribution of sensory stimuli and their spatial pattern of magnitude across different zones and features in the Wetland Park. Tactile experience of the HI participants is relatively rich compared to other non-visual senses. A combination of different stimuli can be found in the park, although visual, auditory and tactile elements seem to be more prominent.
