Abstract

This systematic review of 138 peer-reviewed articles published in the past decade, sourced from ScienceDirect, examines the role of spatial connectivity in shaping social life. Employing the PRISMA methodology, 18 high-quality articles were meticulously analyzed using targeted keywords such as “space syntax,” “social interaction,” “connectivity,” and “integration.” The review identifies three key domains that structure social life: spatial accessibility, urban design configuration, and mobility infrastructure. Drawing from urban planning, sociology, and architectural theory, a conceptual model emerges, elucidating how spatial connectivity fosters interaction, well-structured design supports engagement, and integrated mobility enhances social capital. These findings provide actionable insights for planners and policymakers, enabling them to develop post-pandemic resilience and inclusive spatial strategies. However, the limited dataset signals the need for future research that incorporates broader contexts and advanced analytical technologies.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to identify and analyze gender-based patterns in the use, perception, and experience of public spaces through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. Design/Methods/Approach: The research collected and reviewed 33 scientific articles published between 2015 and 2026 from the Scopus and ScienceDirect databases using specific keywords related to gender behavior and public space. Findings: The findings reveal that men and women interact with public spaces differently due to physical, social, and psychological factors. Men tend to use public areas for physical and recreational activities, while women are more influenced by safety, accessibility, and social interaction. Environmental aspects such as lighting, walkability, and spatial design strongly affect users’ sense of comfort and security. Moreover, cultural and social norms play a significant role in shaping gendered behaviors and perceptions within urban spaces. Originality/Value: This research expands both theoretical and practical understanding of patterns in the use of public spaces based on gender. Practical/Policy implication: Furthermore, the findings provide a foundation for urban designers to adopt a gender-responsive spatial planning approach, particularly in the design of public spaces.   Keywords:  Gender-based patterns; public spaces; perception; inclusivity; systematic literature review
