    La interacción social con los vecinos es un factor clave en el desarrollo del sentido psicológico de comunidad con el barrio de residencia. A ese respecto se han analizado las actividades sociales y los elementos del diseño urbano que ofrecen oportunidades de interacción. Sin embargo, apenas se ha utilizado el enfoque de análisis de redes sociales para determinar qué características estructurales se asocian con una mayor identificación territorial. En este estudio obtuvimos las redes personales de 212 residentes en cuatro barrios de la ciudad de Sevilla, en el sur de España. Con esos datos exploramos la relación entre las características estructurales de las redes personales y el sentido psicológico de comunidad. La fragmentación de las redes personales mostró una asociación negativa con el sentido de pertenencia. Los resultados indican que pasar tiempo, desarrollar relaciones y tener amigos en el barrio son antecedentes directos de una mayor identificación con los contextos residenciales.

    A interação social com os vizinhos é um fator chave no desenvolvimento do sentido psicológico de comunidade com o bairro de residência. Nesse sentido, foram analisadas atividades sociais e elementos do desenho urbano que oferecem oportunidades de interação. No entanto, a abordagem de análise de redes sociais dificilmente tem sido utilizada para determinar quais características estruturais estão associadas a uma maior identificação territorial. Neste estudo obtivemos as redes pessoais de 212 residentes de quatro bairros da cidade de Sevilha, no sul de Espanha. Com estes dados exploramos a relação entre as características estruturais das redes pessoais e o sentido psicológico de comunidade. A fragmentação das redes pessoais apresentou associação negativa com o sentimento de pertencimento. Os resultados indicam que passar tempo, desenvolver relacionamentos e ter amigos na vizinhança são antecedentes diretos de maior identificação com contextos residenciais.

    Social interaction with neighbors is a key factor in the development of a psychological sense of community with the neighborhood of residence. Previous research has analyzed social activities and elements of urban design that offer opportunities for interaction. However, social network analysis has hardly been used to determine which structural characteristics are associated with greater territorial identification. In this study we obtained the personal networks of 212 residents in four neighborhoods of the city of Seville, in southern Spain. With these data the relationship between the structural characteristics of personal networks and the psychological sense of community was explored. The fragmentation of personal networks showed a negative association with the sense of belonging. The results indicate that spending time, developing relationships, and having friends in the neighborhood are direct antecedents of greater identification with residential contexts.
