Un estudio descriptivo sobre la relación de las propiedades estructurales de las redes personales con el sentido psicológico de comunidad en el barrio

Autores/as

Resumen

La interacción social con los vecinos es un factor clave en el desarrollo del sentido psicológico de comunidad con el barrio de residencia. A ese respecto se han analizado las actividades sociales y los elementos del diseño urbano que ofrecen oportunidades de interacción. Sin embargo, apenas se ha utilizado el enfoque de análisis de redes sociales para determinar qué características estructurales se asocian con una mayor identificación territorial. En este estudio obtuvimos las redes personales de 212 residentes en cuatro barrios de la ciudad de Sevilla, en el sur de España. Con esos datos exploramos la relación entre las características estructurales de las redes personales y el sentido psicológico de comunidad. La fragmentación de las redes personales mostró una asociación negativa con el sentido de pertenencia. Los resultados indican que pasar tiempo, desarrollar relaciones y tener amigos en el barrio son antecedentes directos de una mayor identificación con los contextos residenciales.
