A Statistical Investigation Through Regression Models for Assessing Modern Building Quality of Life Indicators in Kruja, Albania.

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Purpose: The article's purpose is to shed light on some indicators of the resident's quality of life in a specific modern building in the city of Kruja, Albania. Design/Method/Approach (only for empirical papers): A questionnaire with 30 questions was prepared for the inhabitance, and the Binary or Tobit probabilistic models were taken into consideration as part of the methodology, in order to conclude. The study will further analyze the implications of the inhabitants and their behavior in a specific contemporary building in the city of Kruja. It was examined the statistical significance of each variable (questions) in the models elaborated with Eviews 8 software. The stable models that are associated with the "Log-likelihood" statistic were statistically significant at a significance level of p < 5%, or with 95% confidence, based on the model tests. Findings: The study concluded that the most statistically significant quality of life indicators part of the questionnaire are questions P3, P8, P18, P19, P22, and P23, related to the typology of the apartments, methods of cooling during summer, present living conditions, apartment improvement, apartment orientation, and time spent in the living room. Furthermore, the study reveals that most of the quality of life indicators (part of the questionnaire) are not statistically important, so they will not be considered part of the models created in the article. Theoretical Implications: Gujarati’s (Basic Economics) theory was developed in the article. Practical Implications: This study will serve as an indicator to analyze the further improvements that might occur in the specific building (not just in the city of Kruja), considering the main quality of life indicators. Originality/Value: The article will serve as a base for further analysis of resident’s behavior and their social impact in the community in order to be aware of their needs for further developments in the construction field. Research Limitations/Future Research: The findings depend profoundly on the type of building the residents are living in. The research stream that can be inspired by the research is strongly related to mathematical regression models, statistics, and probability. Paper type – statistical
