Abstract

Aged or poorly constructed residential areas have become a factor of direct and indirect stresses to the citizens, causing social problems and the psychological unrest of the citizens. Thus there is ongoing discussion on residential maintenance and redevelopment of various points of view to create safe residential areas. However, the actual results for the safety of residential areas are focused on functional and technical aspects rather than cognitive and emotional safety. As a result, psychological safety has been focused on a fragmentary plan that does not consider emotional aspects. Therefore, it is necessary to study a design of cognitive and emotional safe space based on understanding of psychological safety of urban people as a more microscopic and realistic view from the fragmentary viewpoint. The purpose of this study is to measure how much the urban residence realize psychological safety and spatial characteristics in the pedestrian space. The analysis is based on basic statistic to determine the spatial characteristics that give psychological safety. The results of this study showed that if the cognition of Placeness in the pedestrian space was higher, then people feel more psychological safety. Also, if people feel less psychological safety, the cognition of Connectivity in pedestrian space was higher.
