| description |
This paper reports on behavioral norms and territoriality
as part of behavioral and environmental mechanisms
used to regulate privacy among urban Malay families
living in terrace housing. In-depth interview was
employed involving 11 case studies of Malay families
living in three-bedroom two-storey terrace housings in
the urban areas. Findings indicate that while most of
the behavioral norms employed to regulate privacy
are consistent with Malay cultural norms and religious
belief, there are a few which are not consistent due
to the constraint of terrace housing. Defined territory
and the need to respect the neighbors’ privacy are
found to indirectly affect community intimacy among
Malay families living in terrace housings. |
