Stress and personal space: Some observations in a Melanesian urban community
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 05 May 2015
Abstract
With a sample of 60 urban Melanesian households the relationship between expressed satisfaction and stress and the quantity and quality of personal space was examined. The negative and significant correlations obtained suggest trends similar to those found in Western urban samples. The results were discussed in relation to rapid urbanization and the role of the state in cultural change in Melanesia.
