Abstract
One of the most important challenges facing education is to develop students' health and create a sense of attachment to the educational environment in them, which will lead to an increase in the quality of education and training. Architecture as a container of human behavior has a great impact on this matter. The organs of the building and the relationships that govern them are effective in the process of understanding, recognizing and then the way people respond to the environment. According to studies of mental health and environmental psychology, students quickly feel emotionally uncomfortable when dealing with certain educational spaces and feel homesick. People enter the attachment process faster with places in harmony with subconscious schemas. In this article, emphasizing the need for attachment to place in school design, this question is raised, recognizing cultural schemas in the collective subconscious of students and orienting them to design school architecture can increase students' mental health and promote a sense of attachment to educational places? The research method in this research is qualitative and analytical-descriptive. At first, the materials were collected in the form of library study, collect documents in the field of psychology and unconscious cognition and the stages of perception and cognition by it in the human mind, and then analyzed analytically. As a result, examining how students perceive space is effective in creating qualities such as "familiarity" and "identity." In this article, by looking at the category of the unconscious in the field of mental health and architecture and analyzing the collective unconscious schemas, it emphasizes the mechanism of its effect on how students recognize and interpret semantics. Collective help can help the cognition stage lead to the promotion of attachment to the place properly.
