A spatial point pattern analysis of public and private urban social facilities in Barcelona. A balanced and equitable model?
The expansion of privately provided social facilities has significantly transformed urban service landscapes, rising concerns regarding equity and territorial cohesion. This study investigates whether public and private secondary schools, libraries, and sports facilities in Barcelona exhibit distinct spatial logics, and how these patterns correspond to neighbourhood socioeconomic conditions. Moving beyond conventional area-based approaches, we em…
Mapping Urban Environmental Stress in Barcelona: A Multivariate Approach using GWPCA
This study develops a spatially explicit Environmental Stress Index (ESI) for Barcelona, integrating six key environmental dimensions (air pollution, noise, thermal stress, population density, park accessibility, and green cover) across 1,068 census tracts. Using Geographically Weighted Principal Component Analysis, the analysis captures local spatial heterogeneity in environmental stress and derives location-specific weights to construct a multi…
Spatial distribution of income in cities. Polycentric structure of employment, amenities and spatial effects
This study investigates from a theoretical point of view the spatial distribution of households by income within metropolitan areas, focusing on three key determinants: the polycentric structure of employment, the spatial distribution and accessibility of public amenities, and the presence of spatial interdependencies. Utilizing a novel and comprehensive dataset, we endogenously identify employment centers within the Barcelona Metropolitan Area (…
Residential segregation by income: Spatial patterns and multilevel analysis of the six main Spanish metropolitan areas
This study examines income segregation in six Spanish metropolitan areas using Local Indicators of Spatial Association (LISA), global segregation indices and a multilevel modelling approach. By analysing spatial patterns of high- and low-income groups in 2015 and 2021, we identify distinct segregation trends across metropolitan areas. Although results are mixed, low-income clusters tend to shrink, while high-income clusters expand. Global indices…
Residential segregation by nationalities: A global and multilevel approach to Barcelona and Madrid (2008–2018)
This paper analyzes patterns of residential segregation for many nationalities in Barcelona and Madrid during the 2008–2018 period. In the first year, the financial bubble burst, halting the exponential growth of immigrants and in the second, after the great recession, the arrival of immigrant population resumes. The multilevel analysis for the dissimilarity index is applied for the first time to Spanish cities. Complementing the results of globa…
Social status and air quality in Barcelona: A socio-ecological approach
During the last two decades, many studies have described the effects of air pollution in urban areas. This paper analyses the spatial patterns of the main air pollutants in the city of Barcelona, i.e. nitrogen dioxide (NO2), fine particulates of less than 2.5μm (PM2.5) and coarse particulates of 10μm (PM10), and explores the factors associated with air quality in relation to the social and environmental characteristics of each area of the city us…
Clustering Complex Chronic Patients: A Cross-Sectional Community Study From the General Practitioner’s Perspective
Characterization of CCPs shows clearly distinct profiles of needs, which provides an improved epidemiological picture by identifying clusters of patients who are likely to benefit from targeted interventions
Understanding Airbnb spatial distribution in a southern European city: The case of Barcelona
Renta salarial, desigualdad y segregación residencial en las ciudades medianas de Cataluña
Este trabajo presenta los resultados de un proyecto de investigación sobre las condiciones socioeconómicas en las ciudades medianas de Cataluña. Estas ciudades, que caracterizan el sistema policéntrico catalán y también el europeo, han recibido menos atención que las ciudades grandes y globales. A partir de una estimación de la renta salarial media para cada una de las 41 ciudades seleccionadas, se analiza la relación con la desigualdad y la segr…
School satisfaction among youth in residential care: A multi-source analysis
Bridging boundaries with Bernstein: Approach, procedure and results of a school support project in Catalonia
This article presents the theoretical foundations, methodological approach and results of a school support project involving 154 primary school pupils, with low academic performance, in a region of Catalonia (Enxaneta Project). Drawing on the later work of Basic Bernstein, specifically his notion of pedagogic device, the project is based, on a theoretical level, on the use of the notions of classification and framing and of distributive, recontex…
Impact of a workplace ‘sit less, move more’ program on efficiency-related outcomes of office employees
NCT02960750 ; Date of registration: 07/11/2016
The influence of sex and gender-role orientation in the decision to become an entrepreneur
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the relationship between sex, gender-role orientation (GRO) and the decision to become an entrepreneur. Because of the fact that gender stereotypes have influences on the preferences and choices of individuals in their career, this research proposes the following objectives: to determine the existence of gender stereotypes that have an influence on human behaviour and specially in this research cont…
Understanding Immigrant Population Growth Within Urban Areas: A Spatial Econometric Approach
An Open-Source Software for Calculating Indices of Urban Residential Segregation
The aim of this article is to introduce a new stand-alone application—Geo-Segregation Analyzer—that is capable of calculating 43 residential segregation indices, regardless of the population groups or the metropolitan region under study. In practical terms, the user just needs to have a Shapefile geographic file containing counts of population groups that differ in ethnic origin, birth country, age, or income across a metropolitan area at a small…
Changes in Spatial Patterns of the Immigrant Population of a Southern European Metropolis: The Case of the Barcelona Metropolitan Area (2001–2008)
To date, the evolution of residential segregation patterns in southern European cities has received little attention. The case of Barcelona metropolitan area (BMA) is particularly relevant following a rapid growth of immigrant population over a very short period. This empirical study seeks to see if this rapid growth has changed the spatial segregation patterns of immigrant groups and led to the emergence of ethnic enclaves. First, we calculate f…
Población inmigrante y espacio urbano: Indicadores de segregación y pautas de localización
"Dado el importante crecimiento de la población inmigrante en España, es interesante estudiar su distribuciónsobre el territorio urbano. Desde la estadística se han propuesto diferentes indicadores que tienen unalarga tradición, y que permiten cuantificar la segregación de grupos de población minoritarios. Mediantela aplicación de estas herramientas a la realidad de la ciudad de Barcelona y su región metropolitana, semuestra su utilidad a la hora…
