The Influence of Housing Habitability on Familial Coexistence Patterns

Based upon antecedents showing that a negative housing habitability propitiates inter-partner violence as well as child maltreatment, we aimed at studying the processes that are opposite to family violence and a bad habitability. This study investigated the possible influence of adequate housing hab...

Milán, Mariana habitability housing positive functioning family habitabilidad vivienda convivencia familia Based upon antecedents showing that a negative housing habitability propitiates inter-partner violence as well as child maltreatment, we aimed at studying the processes that are opposite to family violence and a bad habitability. This study investigated the possible influence of adequate housing habitability on the positive functioning of Mexican families. Two-hundred-and-five inhabit- ants from a northern Mexican city responded to an instrument assessing the two above-mentioned variables. The assessed habitability conditions included noise control, pleasant temperature, a lack of overcrowding, appropriate illumination, depth, and privacy. In turn, positive family func- tioning considered situations such as family support, family members’ communication, democratic decision-making, flexibility, display of affection, acceptance and respect of everybody’s opinions, among others. A structural equations model revealed a significant correlation between housing habitability and positive family functioning, which suggests that the physical conditions of a house could shape important elements stimulating a healthy interaction among family members, as well as their well-being. Basándonos en antecedentes de investigación que muestran que viviendas con características de mala habitabilidad propician episodios de violencia en la pareja, así como maltrato infantil, nos propusimos estudiar los procesos opuestos a la violencia familiar y la mala habitabilidad. El pre- sente estudio investigó la posible influencia de las condiciones de una adecuada habitabilidad de las casa en la convivencia positiva de familias mexicanas. Se procesaron las respuestas que dieron 205 habitantes de una ciudad del norte de México, a un instrumento que medía las variables de interés arriba señaladas. Las condiciones de habitabilidad medidas incluyeron el control del ruido, temperaturas agradables en la casa, ausencia de hacinamiento, iluminación apropiada, profun- didad, y privacidad. Por su parte, los patrones de funcionamiento positivo familiar consideraron situaciones como el apoyo familiar, la comunicación entre los integrantes, la toma de decisiones democrática, la flexibilidad, el afecto demostrado, la aceptación y el respeto a las opiniones de todos, entre otras. Un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales reveló una correlación significativa entre la habitabilidad de la vivienda y la convivencia positiva, lo cual sugiere que las condiciones físicas de una casa pudieran constituir elementos importantes que estimulan una sana interacción entre los integrantes de la familia, así como su bienestar.
