“…The literature describing research on individuals in relation to their residential environments has addressed various spatial levels applicable to the term “residential” ( Marans, 2003 ), from the micro to the macro level (see also Bonaiuto & Alves, 2012 ; Lewicka, 2010 ), from the single dwelling (e.g., Gomez-Jacinto & Hombrados-Mendieta, 2002 ; Pasca, Aragones, & Poggio, 2016 ; Anton & Lawrence, 2014 ) to the residential complex or facility (e.g., Cerina, Fornara, & Manca, 2017 ), the neighborhood (e.g., Hernández, Hidalgo, Salazar-Laplace, & Hess, 2007 ; Fleury-Bahi, Félonneau, & Marchand, 2008 ; Bonaiuto, Fornara, Ariccio, Cancellieri, & Rahimi, 2015 ; Fornara, Lai, Bonaiuto, & Pazzaglia, 2019 ), and the broader urban context (e.g., Brown & Kytta, 2014 ; Casakin, Hernandez, & Ruiz, 2015 ).…”

Prolonged periods of restrictions on people's freedom of movement during the first massive wave of the COVID-19 pandemic meant that most people engaged in all their daily activities at home. This suggested the need for the spatial features of the home and its occupants' perception of them to be investigated in terms of people's wellbeing. The present study was conducted on a large sample (N = 1354) drawn from different Italian regions. It examined the relationship between the “objective” and “subjective” dimensions of the home, measured in terms of objective home crowding and satisfaction with the space at home, in relation to perceived stress and the perceived risk of COVID-19 infection during the lockdown. The results showed that perceived stress is influenced by objective home crowding through the mediation of satisfaction with the space at home. These associations were more pronounced in younger generations. The negative association between satisfaction with the space at home and perceived stress was higher, the lower the perceived COVID-19 risk.

“…A significant body of research on place attachment has evaluated these characteristics to establish whether they have an impact on the socio-physical bond formed, and interestingly, the results have been very varied. While some studies show that home ownership and the number of years living in a place are aspects that increase involvement with the social network and sense of belonging (Anton & Lawrence, 2014; Pasca et al, 2016; Vidal et al, 2010), in other studies, these aspects are not found to be significant or conclusive (Gurney et al, 2017; Málovics et al, 2019; Manzo, 2014).…”

“…Furthermore, Pasca et al (2016) established that people develop very strong affective bonds with their homes, and gender-sensitive studies emphatically underscore the benefits of home ownership for individuals and communities. For example, it increases citizen participation, makes local business more sustainable and promotes a sense of security and comfort (Rubio & Coronel, 2018)…”

“…Asimismo, en Pasca et al (2016) se estableció que las personas desarrollan vinculaciones afectivas muy fuertes con sus domicilios, y los estudios con perspectiva de género son enfáticos en resaltar los beneficios de la vivienda propia sobre las personas y las comunidades; por ejemplo, incrementa la participación ciudadana, hace más sostenible el comercio local y promueve una sensación de seguridad y confort (Rubio & Coronel, 2018)…”

Research into place attachment theory has traditionally focused on the positive values associated with territories, leaving to one side the analysis of phenomena where the construction of sociophysical bonds is marked by ambivalence, as in the case of territorial stigma. With a view to contributing further information to existing knowledge on this topic, the research presented here aims to explore the dimensions involved in place attachment in relation to stigmatized urban communities in Costa Rica. This study applies a qualitative approach, carrying out interviews and applying participatory mapping. The results have been grouped into five dimensions and three maps, which show that place attachment in the communities studied here is marked by socioaffective bonds, the socio-demographic characteristics of their residents, urban centrality, territorial management and criminality. Based on the information generated, we conclude that place attachment is a complex phenomenon and is shaped by sociopolitical attributes that require more in-depth exploration. RESUMENLa investigación sobre la teoría del apego al lugar tradicionalmente se ha enfocado en las valencias positivas asociadas a los territorios, dejando de lado el análisis de fenómenos donde la construcción de vínculos socio físicos está marcada por la ambivalencia; como es el caso del estigma territorial. Con la finalidad de aportar información a los conocimientos existentes sobre este tema, la presente investigación tiene como objetivo explorar las dimensiones que intervienen en el apego al lugar de comunidades urbanas estigmatizadas de Costa Rica. El estudio tiene un enfoque cualitativo, para el cual se realizaron entrevistas y cartografías participativas; los resultados se agruparon en cinco dimensiones y tres mapas, los cuales muestran que el apego al lugar en las comunidades del estudio está marcado por las relaciones socioafectivas, las características sociodemográficas de sus residentes, la centralidad urbana, la gestión territorial y la criminalidad. Con la información generada se concluye que el apego al lugar es un fenómeno complejo ARTICLE HISTORY

“…The influence of neighborhood characteristics on the experiences deriving from people’s interaction with their place of residence and, in particular, on residents’ health, well-being and satisfaction with their neighborhoods, has been widely studied in environmental psychology (Hur and Morrow-Jones, 2008; Oktay et al, 2012; Bonaiuto et al, 2015; Wheaton et al, 2015; Pasca et al, 2016; Lekkas et al, 2017). In order to explain the influence of neighborhood attributes, the authors refer to the role played by the objectively defined characteristics, residents’ perceptions, and the distinction between the objective and perceived characteristics of the environment that influence the positive or negative assessment made by residents.…”

Neighborhoods’ Evaluation: Influence on Well-Being Variables

The influence of neighborhood characteristics on residents’ well-being and residential satisfaction has been widely studied, and has presented considerable variability. This study analyses the extent to which neighborhood resources influence variables relating to well-being, and examines the relationship between neighborhood resources and residents’ perceptions. The study was structured over two phases: (1) the neighborhood resources were evaluated, and (2) 252 neighborhood residents was interviewed. The results have shown that the observation by independent observers of neighborhood resources is connected to residents’ perceptions of their neighborhood. Residents’ perceptions of their neighborhoods is associated with indicators of well-being, and residential satisfaction. Also, the reasons for living in the neighborhood appear to be connected to the observed availability of resources and the perception of it. Wellbeing and residential satisfaction are the outcome of multiple aspects that are not limited to structural and material elements of neighborhoods.
