Publicações Científicas City life satisfaction: a measurement for smart and sustainable cities from the citizen perspective The study aims to contribute to the current panorama of instruments that qualify cities by presenting an approach of sustainable goals and indicators. Insight from inhabitants about their cities reveal dimensions and attributes not captured by official indicators. The focus of this study is to define appropriate indicators for sustainability and smartness of cities according to their citizens, considering the idiosyncrasies of local contexts and less notable dimensions pointed out in earlier studies. The scale is based on consolidated metrics, such as the UN Sustainable Development Goals, and the ISO 37120/2017, in association with the European Barometer and American Barometer. The CITYLIFESAT (City Life Satisfaction) scale was tested and validated in Southern Brazil through exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, and discriminant analysis. The results show that citizens' satisfaction is primarily linked to health and safety, well-being, recreation, public transport, walkability, social inclusion and participation, primary services, city attachment, and environment. Silva, M. B. C. D., Bebber, S., Fachinelli, A. C., Moschen, S. D. A., & Perini, R. D. L. (2019). City life satisfaction: a measurement for smart and sustainable cities from the citizens' perspective. International Journal of Knowledge-Based Development, 10(4), 338-383. https://doi.org/10.1504/IJKBD.2019.105126 Perceived attributes and dimensions of accessibility in adapted bathrooms This work aims to explore the perceived accessibility of adapted toilets according to the user’s perspective, indicating the relevance of their attributes and features for persons with reduced mobility. There are recent studies addressing accessibility, but few focus on adapted toilets, making this study of adapted toilets in Brazil unique. A total of 98 disabled users with restricted mobility and carers took part in a survey after using adapted toilets. The study sample variance resulted in 27 attributes, distributed in eight factors: accessories, transit ability, access, hydro sanitary facilities, facilities, openings, safety, and ergonomic comfort. Multiple linear regression analysis was applied to identify attributes with impact on general satisfaction. The results identified three primary attributes in terms of design, execution and improvement of the user experience. Findings demonstrate a gap between the recommended standards and what the user perceives to be important, which has ramifications for the further development of standards and the design and construction of adapted toilets. The implication is that it is necessary to pay more attention to what the users need, and thus help to improve the users’ experience, satisfaction and wellbeing. Marcelo Benetti Correa da Silva, Suane de Atayde Moschen, Brunella Cecatto & Fabiano Larentis (2022) Perceived attributes and dimensions of accessibility in adapted bathrooms, Building Research & Information, 50:1-2, 60-73, DOI: 10.1080/09613218.2021.1943643 Sustainable development of communities: ISO 37120 and UN goals Purpose The aims of this study is to put on the agenda discussions concerning the approach of sustainable goals and indicators, in terms of how they relate to each other and how to list their importance within a network of contemporary city management. From the millennium objectives experience, UN has launched the continuity of the development program, through the sustainable development goals (SDG), which have the purpose of giving support to local and regional governments for the 2030 agenda in local sphere. In the city context, sustainable development has also been approached in regulations, like ISO 37120: 2017 “Sustainable development of communities: Indicators for city services and quality of life”. These instruments have in common the concern of offering parameters of public services to citizens and promoting in a uniform manner both social and economic growth of the urban environment. Design/methodology/approach The present study aims to compare these two sustainable development tools by means of a documentary analysis and to analyze the feasibility of the proposed indicators and their qualitative evaluation goals to improve citizens’ quality of life. Findings The results suggest that the main urban challenges are related to unplanned urban growth and poor-quality public services, which generate a lack of commitment to enforce laws and to achieve sustainable development goals. Originality/value The study establishes bases for guiding the discussion to support managers and investors decisions to promote paradigm changes in the citizens’ life and in the way cities are planned.

A survey with 395 Brazilian amateur runners was conducted, and the structural equation modeling technique was used for data analysis. The main results showed that life satisfaction and experiential consumption positively influence happiness, and minimalism influences experiential consumption in the sample studied. Furthermore, minimalism did not influence happiness. The proposed framework showed that life satisfaction and experiential consumption explain 54.2% of the happiness of leisure practitioners. Because people generally do not increase their happiness by choosing a simple lifestyle, they can decrease consumption by incentives other than happiness. Therefore, public policies aimed at raising awareness of the importance of reducing consumption should focus on other benefits, such as the benefits that can be gained from leisure and experiential consumption.

A survey was applied to customers, and data analyses were performed using Exploratory Factor Analysis to identify the dimensions and related attributes, followed by Multiple Linear Regression statistical analysis to test the relationships among the dimensions. The findings demonstrate the positive and significant impact of functionality and configuration on service quality and customer satisfaction, whereas functionality positively impacted the product price.

This research aims to evaluate the service quality provided by a construction technology laboratory, specifically in the segment of performing testing through the rupturing of concrete samples. For this research, a survey was conducted using a structured questionnaire that was created based on a literature review regarding the surveying of laboratory customers at a university in the south of Brazil. Our research was both exploratory and quantitative, and the data were analyzed by applying multivariate data analysis. The conclusions of this study show that the dimensions of quality services are: communication, reliability, responsiveness, credibility, and tangibility. These five dimensions together provide a high explained variance standard of 79.75%. Having a suitable number of attendants available to serve customers and presenting agility in the construction laboratory is one of the managerial research contributions. Moreover, through information availability, this research generates greater traceability that can be used both by customers and by institutional management. Constantly and thoroughly monitoring the customer service cycle is another relevant factor that can improve the quality of the services provided. da Silva, M. B. C., Graciola, A. P., Milan, G.

Design/methodology/approach For this purpose, a survey was conducted with 900 students from a university in southern Brazil. Findings The main results proved that the antecedents considered in the study have a significant and positive influence on the value-in-use and satisfaction of university students. Furthermore, the built environment, price fairness, teaching care and satisfaction explained 87.8% of the value-in-use of students, while the built environment, price fairness and teaching care explained 74.9% of student satisfaction. Originality/value The study proved that after receiving the educational service, if the student can apply his or her acquired knowledge and skills, he or she will find a fair price, will be satisfied and will obtain value in the service purchased. Thus, even if the educational market is changing in recent years, the importance of the teacher and the built environment are factors that influence price fairness and increase the satisfaction and value-in-use perceived by the student.

Design/methodology/approach A survey was conducted with 250 students from a university in southern Brazil. The data were analyzed by structural equation modeling. Findings The main results proved that the built environment, price fairness and teaching care have a significant and positive influence on the satisfaction of university students. Practical implications The factors presented explanation power for student satisfaction, which shows that they are essential aspects and, therefore, must be observed by universities to satisfy their students. Originality/value The study identifies the impact of factors such as the environment, price and teaching service on student satisfaction.

This paper aims to analyze the attributes and dimensions of the built environment of a development software company that most impact the employee’s satisfaction through their perception. It allows the company to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the built environment, enhancing the employee’s satisfaction, productivity and, consequently, the company revenues. Design/methodology/approach This research applied a survey by the drop off method and analyzed data through confirmatory factor analysis and multiple linear regression. Therefore, these methods explain how the attributes behave in each theoretical dimension and evaluate the relation between the dependent and independent dimensions. Findings The theoretical result of this research concerns the employee’s satisfaction with the built environment of a software development company. Overall, employee satisfaction is related to the dimensions of functionality, appearance and personal relationships, not being significant aspects of configuration. On the other hand, the employee’s overall satisfaction with the built environment is related to the functional dimension. Research limitations/implications This research limitation is related to the size of the sample, which is a pre-determined and fixed population: all the company’s employees. Originality/value Perceived quality applied to a work environment of a software development company. da Silva, M.B.C. , Valente, M.G. , Petroli, A. , Notari, D.L. , Bebber, S. and Fachinelli, A.C.

Foram realizadas múltiplas análises de regressão a partir dos resultados das dimensões de qualidade mais importantes resultantes da percepção dos clientes, obtidas a partir de quatro estudos anteriores, que aplicaram análise fatorial. Os valores obtidos nas análises fatoriais e de regressão foram correlacionados com o objetivo de identificar resultados semelhantes nas análises. Os resultados apontam que os atributos relacionados com o atendimento personalizado, informação sobre os resultados do ensaio, bem como o comprometimento dos funcionários, são considerados os mais importantes na percepção dos clientes. Assim, foi possível identificar fragilidades no serviço realizado e propor melhorias e, desta forma, maximizar a satisfação do cliente. Como limitação do estudo, é apontado o tamanho da amostra, que poderia ter influenciado os resultados encontrados, influenciando também os procedimentos metodológicos nas análises de regressão.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5585/exactaep.2021.14746 Smart sustainable cities evaluation and sense of community This paper pursued to evaluate the residents' evaluation on the smart sustainable city and the sense of community. The study analyzed interviews with 392 citizens from five neighboring cities from a micro-region in southern Brazil. Factorial analysis and linear regression were applied. The investigation recognized three factors for smart sustainable cities evaluation: public services and facilities; material well-being, and environmental well-being. Linear regression reveals that residents' satisfaction with the city is predicated on the material well-being, public services and facilities, environmental well-being, and sense of community, which explain 40.2% of satisfaction with the city. Considering a smart sustainable city viewpoint, the study accomplishes that: (i) policies should be projected from the neighborhood standpoint, due to the facility of understanding shared values (ii) sense of community should be included in policies for smart sustainable city; (iii) the design of neighborhoods and cities should prioritize social interactions, with the view to build social capital and facilitate policies implementation. By integrating the smartness to sustainability approaches in the city context, this study intends to contribute to a major discussion on sustainable development, with special attention to residents' evaluation. Finally, the paper offers pertinent outcomes for urban planners and social researchers, by finding factors that influence the sense of community and residents’ evaluation on their city and by offering elements for academic, political and debates.

The popular SERVQUAL scale, a multidimensional instrument used to capture customer expectations and perceptions, was used as a model for the application of a survey. Exploratory factor analyses were employed to evaluate customers’ perceptions and experiences of service quality in regard to the dimensions and accompanying attributes of the SERVQUAL scale. Twenty attributes, which were grouped within five dimensions (Reliability, Assurance, Tangibles, Responsiveness, and Empathy), were identified, explaining 80.417% of the variance between customer expectations and perceptions and characterizing these dimensions on a modified SERVQUAL scale. Analysis of the results allowed us to identify discrepancies in perceived service quality compared with customers’ expectations. Most of the identified gaps between expectations and perceptions resulted in negative values.

Perceived quality of built environment, service, satisfaction and value-in-use Purpose Post-occupancy evaluation (POE) demonstrates relevance nowadays. Because of the wide competition between construction companies, it is necessary to be assertive, so satisfied clients bring new clients through communication amongst the users. This paper aims to assist a construction company, evaluating apartment owner’s perceptions regarding the built environment, the perceived quality of services, the satisfaction and the value in use, in the context of multifamily buildings. Design/methodology/approach This paper presents quantitative research of POE, applying confirmatory factor analysis and multiple linear regression. These methods analyse how the attributes behave in each theoretical dimension and evaluate the relationship between the dimensions of the built environment and services including customer satisfaction and value in use. Findings The results demonstrate that the constructs associated with management aspects such as service, cause higher levels of satisfaction and, therefore, higher value in use. The results become guidelines for constructors, supporting management and project decision-making. Research limitations/implications This study’s limitation is related to the number of questionnaires applied. The survey was applied to the apartment owners in all five buildings from a constructor, considered as the entire population of the research. For that reason, there were not used a sample. Further studies are required to improve the results, even more, using the present research in a larger sample, seeking a better generalisation. Also, future studies might evaluate other types of constructions and environments. Originality/value This paper used marketing constructs related to satisfaction, value in use and service, applied in the construction field of multifamily residential buildings.

Gabinete de datos Ayuntamiento de Caxias do Sul Objetivo general: Identificar indicadores internos de las secretarías asociados a los indicadores presentados por los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible y por las normas ISO 37120, 37122 y 37123, visando analizar el cumplimiento de las metas contenidas en las partes PPA, LDO y LOA. Objetivos específicos: a) Analizar los datos disponibles en las secretarías b) Definir indicadores históricamente disponibles c) Analizar indicadores internacionales asociados a indicadores internos d) Definir indicadores e) Definir el suministro de datos y el sistema de seguimiento. f) Definir metas en base a los indicadores identificados g) Desarrollar un proyecto de seguimiento de indicadores de forma sistemática h) Presentar un cuadro de seguimiento de indicadores del municipio https://caxias.rs.gov.br/noticias/2022/05/projeto-de-gestao-por-indicadores-de-caxias-do-sul-recebe-premio-inovacidade Caxias do Sul é uma das vencedoras do prêmio Inova Cidade 2022, concedido anualmente pelo Instituto Smart City Business para iniciativas do poder público e de entidades privadas que causem impactos positivos na sociedade. Neste ano, serão premiados 24 projetos. A cerimônia acontece no dia 24 de maio, durante o Smart City Business Brazil Congress, em São Paulo. Caxias foi destaque pelo projeto “Os Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável (ODS) como norteadores da Gestão Pública por Indicadores”. A iniciativa tem como objetivo tornar a administração pública mais transparente e alinhar as metas governamentais com a Agenda 2030 da ONU, e às ISO 37120 (Cidades Sustentáveis), ISO 37122 (Cidades Inteligentes) e ISO 37123 (Cidades Resilientes). Os indicadores serão disponibilizados em uma plataforma aberta e servirão como norte para que o poder público tome decisões. “Muitos resultados Caxias já tem, mas não estão relacionados aos objetivos planetários do desenvolvimento sustentável. Por exemplo, temos um índice muito bom em relação ao tratamento de esgoto. Isso certamente muito positivo em relação à agenda planetária. E que outros a gente tem? E o que tem a melhorar? Precisamos desse alinhamento. O prêmio foi uma surpresa bem positiva, porque estamos numa etapa inicial, e já houve reconhecimento. É um incentivo, um retorno positivo de que estamos no caminho certo”, resume a vice-prefeita Paula Ioris. Para a construção dos indicadores, a Prefeitura reuniu servidores com experiência na elaboração do Plano Plurianual (PPA), Lei de Diretrizes Orçamentárias (LDO) e Lei Orçamentária Anual (LOA) e com especialização em Desenvolvimento Local e ODS, e firmou acordo de cooperação técnica com o grupo de pesquisa City Living Lab (www.citylivinglab.com ), da Universidade de Caxias do Sul (UCS), para estruturação e execução do projeto. O grupo de trabalho se reuniu com representantes de diversas secretarias para mapear quais indicadores de ODSs e ISOs impactam direta ou indiretamente os programas desenvolvidos pelas pastas. Além disso, os indicadores foram divididos em quatro categorias: Social, Econômica, Planejamento Urbano e Meio Ambiente; Infraestrutura de Serviços Públicos e Governança. “Precisamos deixar para a cidade uma marca de gestão, uma marca de tomada de decisão baseada em dados e fatos. O mundo privado já trabalha desta forma há muito tempo. O mundo público precisa avançar. Fala-se tanto em cidades inteligentes, sustentáveis, resilientes. Uma cidade inteligente é que faz investimentos a partir de dados e critérios. Estamos estabelecendo metas, ligadas a indicadores, para que tenhamos dados e critérios para tomada de decisões”, finalizou.

Projeto Sistema de coleta de dados por dispositivos IoT (sensoriamento) para cidades inteligentes O Projeto Sistema de Coleta de Dados por Dispositivos IoT (sensoriamento) visa desenvolver um sistema para coleta e processamento de dados, habilitando seis cidades da região da Serra Gaúcha. As cidades de Bento Gonçalves, Canela, Caxias do Sul, Flores da Cunha, Gramado e São Francisco de Paula foram parceiras na execução deste projeto. Cada cidade recebeu a instalação de duas antenas LoRaWAN e três kits de sensores. A figura abaixo ilustra a instalação dos equipamentos de IoT. As informações são coletadas em tempo real e armazenadas em uma estrutura de dados em nuvem, permitindo a visualização dos dados. Com a habilitação dessas cidades, será possível utilizar os resultados do projeto para desenvolver políticas públicas e fornecer melhores serviços à população da região da Serra. Confira o vídeo que mostra a instalação das antenas LoRaWAN e dos sensores nas cidades da Serra Gaúcha, além de apresentar o dashboard criado a partir da coleta dos dados.

Artigo escrito por membros do CityLIvingLab desvenda os segredos por trás da relação entre a qualidade do ambiente construído e a satisfação dos clientes em postos de gasolina. Artigo escrito por membros do CityLIvingLab desvenda os segredos por trás da relação entre a qualidade do ambiente construído e a satisfação dos clientes em postos de gasolina. O artigo discute o ambiente de serviços, especialmente os serviços presenciais, e como o ambiente físico influencia a percepção de qualidade e satisfação do cliente. A pesquisa propõe que melhorias no ambiente construído de um posto de gasolina podem impactar positivamente a satisfação do cliente. São apresentadas hipóteses de pesquisa relacionadas às dimensões do ambiente construído (aparência, conforto, configuração e funcionalidade) e sua relação com a satisfação do cliente. Para acessar o artigo na íntergra, clique aqui. Marcelo Benetti, pesquisador do CityLivingLab "Nossos resultados evidenciam que melhorias no ambiente físico dos postos de gasolina estão diretamente ligadas à satisfação do cliente. Identificamos quatro dimensões-chave do ambiente construído, cada uma com atributos específicos que influenciam significativamente a percepção dos clientes. Essas descobertas oferecem valiosos insights para gestores, indicando áreas de oportunidade para ajustes operacionais e de atendimento ao cliente."

Citylivinglab - Disponible en línea el 5 de mayo de 2022 CIUDADES INTELIGENTES DE BRASIL Desempeño de las Capitales Brasileñas Ana Cristina Fachinelli, Tan Yigitcanlar, Tatiana Tucunduva Philippi Cortese, Jamile Sabatini-Marqués, Debora Sotto, Bianca Libardi www.doi .... Resumen Este informe es el resultado de una estrecha colaboración entre las instituciones miembros de la Red de Investigación y Práctica de Ciudades Inteligentes de Australia y Brasil. El informe se enfoca en comprender los niveles de inteligencia de las capitales brasileñas a través de la lente de un marco de evaluación del desempeño de una ciudad inteligente. Este informe se centra en las ciudades brasileñas para desarrollar un modelo de evaluación de ciudades inteligentes y traer métricas que contribuyan a que los gestores públicos busquen el equilibrio y la inteligencia en la vida de sus ciudades. El concepto de ciudad inteligente en este informe se refiere a la economía inteligente, la sociedad inteligente, el medio ambiente inteligente, la gobernanza inteligente y los dominios de tecnología inteligente que buscan tecnología y políticas habilitadas por la comunidad para brindar productividad, innovación, habitabilidad, bienestar, sostenibilidad, accesibilidad y buen gobierno y planificación. Este informe informa a los gestores públicos, a través de los indicadores de productividad e innovación, habitabilidad y bienestar, sostenibilidad y accesibilidad, gobernanza y planificación, y conectividad e innovación, sobre el desempeño y los niveles de inteligencia de sus ciudades. El informe destaca las fortalezas y debilidades de las capitales brasileñas para convertirse en ciudades inteligentes de renombre internacional. El análisis basado en el marco de evaluación de ciudades inteligentes reveló los siguientes tipos de ciudades: líderes, seguidores y en desarrollo. Las ciudades identificaron como líderes un fuerte ecosistema de innovación, con legislación para el desarrollo del espíritu empresarial y la formación de mano de obra calificada y la generación de desarrollo económico basado en el conocimiento, y proporcionando acceso a Internet rápido y confiable. Uno de los desafíos más críticos en el camino hacia la inteligencia de las ciudades brasileñas es la conectividad. Internet debe estar disponible, asequible, confiable y rápido en todas las regiones del país para todas las personas. De esta forma se podrían evitar los problemas de inclusión digital. Muchos expertos consideran que Internet de banda ancha y 5G es un derecho social y, por lo tanto, debe incluirse como un derecho básico de los ciudadanos en la Constitución brasileña. La llegada de la pandemia de Covid-19 perturbó las ciudades brasileñas, pero al mismo tiempo les dio la oportunidad de desarrollar una fuerza de trabajo móvil y mentes brillantes, incluida la atracción internacional, especialmente porque el concepto de oficinas en cualquier lugar se vuelve cada vez más presente en la vida de las ciudades y contribuyendo a su desarrollo económico basado en el conocimiento. El acceso a datos abiertos es otro elemento esencial para la inteligencia de las ciudades y puede promover el emprendimiento innovador y el desarrollo de nuevas tecnologías, la gobernanza, la transparencia y el impacto en la calidad de vida de los ciudadanos. Por ello, los municipios deben centrar sus esfuerzos en la recogida de datos locales y su uso responsable. Este informe es relevante y estratégico para que el gobierno garantice políticas públicas justas, éticas, eficaces, eficientes y progresistas. También ofrece una oportunidad invaluable para que las autoridades consideren la adopción de los indicadores utilizados en este informe para evaluar el desempeño y el progreso de su ciudad inteligente. Creemos que este informe informará la política y la práctica de las ciudades inteligentes en las ciudades brasileñas.
