Abstract

When immigrants move to a new city, they tend to develop distinct relationships with the urban landscape, which in turn becomes the new setting of their routine-based activities that evolve over time. Previous works in environmental psychology have quantitatively examined non-native residents' development of sense of place towards their new environment. In this paper, we introduce the spatial perspective into studying the sense of place experienced by non-natives in an urban context. We study the person-place bonds, relationships, and feelings cultivated by non-native residents living in the city of Lisbon (Portugal) through an online map-based survey. Then, we carried out spatial analysis aimed at distinguishing and visualizing the different facets of sense of place developed by two participant groups: short-term residents and long-term residents. Results showed that while short-term residents reported bonds with places, long-term residents' senses of place were more intense and broader throughout the city. The correlations, associations, and relationships between participant groups and the dimensions of sense of place allowed us to observe features and patterns that were previously described in the literature, although adding the spatial lenses can potentially provide better insights for urban planning, community development, and inclusive policies.

地方感和城市感:里斯本非本地居民的案例
当移民搬到一个新城市时,他们往往会与城市景观发展出独特的关系,这反过来又成为他们日常活动的新环境,并随着时间的推移而演变。先前的环境心理学研究定量地考察了非本地居民对新环境的地方感发展。在本文中,我们将空间视角引入到研究非本地人在城市背景下所体验的地方感中。我们通过一项基于在线地图的调查,研究了居住在葡萄牙里斯本市的非本地居民所培养的人地关系、人际关系和情感。然后,我们进行了空间分析,旨在区分和可视化两个参与者群体(短期居民和长期居民)产生的地方感的不同方面。结果显示,虽然短期居民报告与地方有联系,但长期居民的地方感在整个城市更强烈、更广泛。参与者群体与地方感维度之间的相关性、关联性和关系使我们能够观察到文献中先前描述的特征和模式,尽管添加空间透镜可能会为城市规划、社区发展和包容性政策提供更好的见解。
