“…"too much traffic and noise", "not enough green spaces") are synthesized into 16 ground-goals, and then grouped together into 4 themes (Table 3). A similar study has been done by Bonaiuto et al (2003) in different neighborhoods of Rome, where hundreds of residents formulated hundreds of 'items' on perceived residential environment quality and neighborhood attachment. From the collection of ground-goals, experts then designed an indicatorset, which shows the spatial variability of the phenomena within the neighborhood.…”

“…This term has been largely defined by many authors (Bonaiuto et al, 2003;Pacione, 2003;van Kamp et al, 2003). It refers in our case to the general satisfaction from the point of view of the inhabitants on natural and built environment, services and facilities, and social interactions (Bonaiuto et al, 2003). Therefore, the diagnosis was not conducted through external expertise, but as a participatory survey, involving inhabitants in the discussion of problems and in sharing information (problem identification).…”

Urban land-use planning and management are in constant mutation throughout the world. With sustainability as the goal, the use of indicators for land auditing and monitoring is becoming more and more in demand.Classical approaches elaborate core sets of indicators by picking the most relevant elements in exhaustive lists. More recently, a few structured research approaches consider the set of indicators as a whole, following the concepts of systemics, and so highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of the sets.Starting from the principle that the relevance of an indicator is due not only to its intrinsic qualities, but also to its placement and relationships with the other indicators in the collection, this paper proposes a systemic method, named Relational Indicatorset Model (RIM), for the elaboration of a set of indicators for management support.The RIM method starts with the a priori definitions of the goals and users' purpose (RIM-objectives), and then chooses indicators to reflect the objectives on representing the distribution of indicators in a relational graph (RIM graph). The graph modeling allows analyzing the match between the indicatorset and the defined objectives, as well as the interrelationships between the indicators. The analysis is made easier by breaking down the RIM graph following two projections: the first one (RIM-4D) highlights the distribution of the indicators in a multidimensional graph with respect to the objectives; the second one (RIM-IR) focuses on the interrelationships and offers the possibility of formalizing the causal interactions and the aggregational relationships between the indicators, following a qualitative approach.The RIM is applied to the design of sets of spatial and non-spatial indicators for the cities of Thies (Senegal) and of Geneva (Switzerland) to emphasize the potential of the method. It opens up interesting possibilities for application to all sets of indicators for sustainable land-use development. It also contributes to the creation of observatories for city management, instruments used to monitor and control the urban sustainable development.

“…Studies in residential satisfaction must include both space and residents as users of this space (Adriaanse, 2007;Berkoz & Kellekci, 2007). The residential area is not limited to the house but also expand to the environment where it is situated and the residents who live there because the off-campus student's experience with their neighborhood and neighbors may be just as important as their house itself (Aiello, Ardone, & Scopelliti, 2010;Bonaiuto, Aiello, Perugini, Bonnes, & Ercolani, 1999;Bonaiuto, Fornara, & Bonnes, 2003;Dasimah et al, 2011;Fleury-Bahi, Félonneau, & Marchand, 2008;Fornara, Bonaiuto, & Bonnes, 2010;Mohit, Ibrahim, & Rashid, 2010;Oktay & Rustemli, 2011;Parkes, Kearns, & Atkinson, 2002).…”

This study aims to clarify the explanatory factors and the extent to which those factors help to predict the overall residential satisfaction among students living off-campus. This survey utilized a stratified sample of individuals with a questionnaire which was administered to 341 non-resident (NR) students, in seven groups of neighborhoods in the city of Shah Alam. In the analytic process, a Factor Analysis procedure is applied to reduce the data set and to uncover the relationships between various factors and dimensions of the students' residential satisfaction. Descriptive results show a degree of satisfaction with each level of the residential environment.

On the Necessity of an Integrated, Participative and Adaptive Approach to Sustainable Urban Environmental Quality Planning

On the necessity of an integrated, participative and adaptive approach to urban environmental quality in planning sustainable cities Key words: urban environmental quality; urban quality of life; sustainable urban development; trade-offs; quality dimensions. Rien van Stigt, Peter Driessen and Tejo Spit AbstractBased on a review of recent literature, this paper addresses the question of how urban planners can steer urban environmental quality, given the fact that it is multidimensional in character, is assessed largely in subjective terms and varies across time. A novel perspective of urban environmental quality is proposed, exploring three questions that are at the core of planning and designing cities: 'quality of what?', 'quality for whom?' and 'quality at what time?' The dilemmas that urban planners face in answering these questions are illustrated using secondary material. The three questions provide a framework that offers urban planners perspectives for action in finding their way out of the dilemmas identified. Rather than further detailing the exact nature of urban quality, this novel perspective calls for an approach to urban planning that is integrated, participative and adaptive.
