Urban Landscape Impact on Human Behavior

Human behavior is considered as a basic corner in building communities. Lately, by observing human behavior in our community, it seems obvious that it has an urgent need to be enhanced. Academics and stakeholders should spotlight the priority of enhancing human behavior in every career due to its importance in developing communities. The authors aim throughout this paper to enhance human behavior using the urban landscape social dimension, as the social dimension is related to achieving human life quality, needs, and many social aspects such as behavior. By using the induction method, the effective relationship between achieving needs and human behavior has been assisted. Therefore, the authors adopted the idea that achieving needs from the urban landscape as the human surrounding environment can contribute to enhancing some human behaviors such as stress. Accordingly, the authors analyzed previous studies and research related to urban landscape, human needs, and their impact on human behaviors. As a result, a theoretical framework named URBAN SOCIALSCAPE has been suggested. This theoretical framework depends on the urban landscape social dimension which tends to achieve life quality, by setting five principles that ensure achieving human needs from the urban landscape. Applying this framework can contribute to creating a better surrounding environment and consequently motivates good behaviors, to support the community development and become more sustainable.
