Abstract

No âmbito de um projecto de monitorização da qualidade de vida desenvolvido pela Câmara Municipal do Porto foi realizado um inquérito a 2400 residentes na cidade com o objectivo de avaliar a percepção dos cidadãos. Algumas das questões diziam respeito ao próprio conceito de qualidade de vida, visando identificar os aspectos que os inquiridos consideram fundamentais para que uma cidade apresente boas condições de vida e de bem-estar. Neste artigo apresentam-se os principais resultados obtidos relativamente a essas questões, num primeiro ponto através de um tratamento estatístico simples das respostas obtidas, e de seguida através de uma análise multivariada, que permite o agrupamento dos inquiridos em grandes grupos homogéneos e a sua caracterização sócio-económica.
