Hypothesis
Sense of place will be positively associated with social cohesion. (286)
Note
Sense of place measured by averaging of ratings by the researcher for six constructs (identity, attachment, dependency, propriety, home range, and comprehensive SOP assessment). Social cohesion measured by averaging ratings for cohesion at three unit scales (multifamily, conglomeration of multifamilies, and ethnic-cultural).
