Resumen:
In the frame of a study aiming at identifying the potential of emotion as the affective component of perception, a questionnaire was developed for assessing the involvement of this dimension in the perception of urban environments.The questionnaire was tested in field studies carried out in two cities. It was hypothesized that the street lighting might be the main feature among the overall environmental stimulation of the urban environment, and this may have an impact on emotional perception. The general appraisal of the urban scene was also considered as background predictor.
