摘要

This paper examines the relationship between citizens' city perception and their involvement in city improvement. The viewpoint is based on the statistically significant relationship between the distribution of the daily places perceptions and proposals of city improvement on the online map. It was found that such proposals are more closely related to citizens' emotions than to their daily mobility. Furthermore, the positive emotions are correlated with proposals to keep places intact and negative emotions are correlated with proposals to improve the places. However, the emotions, as well as public proposals, are scarcely distributed in the space. This deficit is a major boundary for public participation in urban planning, as the initial questions on what to do with places, that are a void in public mindset, remain unsolved. The paper's conclusions can be generalized to other countries that have adopted participatory planning approaches in urban planning and specifically to the cities with developed location-based social networks.
