Funded Activity Summary

Perceived Density, Social Interaction and Morale in Australian Rural Communities. The social viability of rural communities rests, to a greater or lesser degree, upon the density of the local settlement network, and residents' perceptions of it. This project will create a measure of perceived density (i.e. people's subjective interpretations of measured density) and will establish how it influences Australian rural residents' social interaction patterns and morale. The project will produce a conceptually rigorous and concrete understanding of the density-related factors influencing rural community social viability and morale, and will aid rural communities in identifying and overcoming local social interaction constraints.
