Table 7: [PERSON]’s rho correlations of each sound source and subjective satisfaction, as well as perceived soundscape factors. Figure 6: Sounds perception of interviewees’ perceived sources (**a**) in China and (**b**) in Croatia. satisfaction in Croatia. This illustrates the fact that natural sounds have a positive correlation with overall environmental satisfaction in both China and Croatia. The responses from users show an effect of satisfaction on preference elements, and this finding corresponds with research [53], which indicated that the presence of elements of preference, not necessarily just sonic but also visual, help to change perception and thus the local soundscape. For Croatian spaces, human sounds and activities have negative correlations with environmental satisfaction. Additionally, it is interesting to note that music has a negative correlation with subjective satisfaction in Chinese places. The reason for that could be that the sound is too loud and the music is mainly related to square dancing, thus having a special character. It is different with a previous study of soundscape evaluation for square dance in the Chinese urban park [54], which indicated that square dance had no significant effect on soundscape evaluation. This is probably due to the fact that the visitors are present in open public spaces and urban parks with different purposes. To investigate the relationships between perceived soundscape factors and sound sources, [PERSON]'s correlation coefficients between these variables are also presented in Table 7, and the related sound sources are listed from high to low in terms of correlation coefficients. Most sound sources are mainly associated with pleasantness both in China and Croatia.
