SANZ, Alba Ramos. Factors linked to dissatisfaction of habitability in residential units during COVID-19 confinement in Argentina. []. , 13, 25, pp.83-96. ISSN 1390-9274.  https://doi.org/10.18537/est.v013.n025.a05.

The present work aims the association of factors linked to the habitability satisfaction of isolated and semi-detached residential units in apartment buildings is analyzed, during lockdown due to Covid-19 in Argentina. Using the snowball technique, an electronic survey is disseminated in the strictest lockdown moment, that reaches a sample of 137 users of residential units. The answers for two research questions are empirically validated with inferential statistical techniques, giving rise to hypotheses born from the conflicting aspects detected in habitability satisfactions such as the availability of interior spaces, perceived natural lighting, the age of the respondent, among others. Conclusions confirm the relevance of natural lighting could replace the demand for spatial amplitude, and its importance based on the users age range among other aspects of significant association. Results obtained constitute foundations for policy, both housing and territorial planning in order to mitigate the dissatisfaction with habitability risk in a social confinement event.
