Abstract: | Life cycle effects on the importance assigned to residential area attributes are examined empirically. The family life cycle is hypothesized to affect residential area aspirations through changes in the frequency and location of leisure activities. The results indicate that the importance of eight residential area attributes varies significantly with life cycle status. The family life cycle also affects participation in leisure activities. However, the initial hypothesis is not supported. La relation entre le cycle familial et l'importance donnée aux caractéristiques du voisinage est examinée empiriquement. On suggère que le cycle familial affecte les désirs pour des caractéristiques du voisinage en changeant la fréquence et la localité des loisirs. On a trouvé que le cycle familial affecte l'importance des huit caractéristiques aussi bien que les loisirs. Les résultats ne soutiennent pas l'hypothèse de base. |
