To promote urban renewal, it is crucial to update urban renewal policies and to introduce regulations regarding self-renewal abilities in old communities. People's motivation to participate is a key factor behind self-initiated renewal. The motivation is influenced by the city environment and government policies. Therefore, being able to understand the influencers behind people's motivation to participate in self-initiated renewal will be key to the success of a government's promotion of urban renewal policies. Based on a thorough literature review, the study conducted statistical factorial analyses using data from in-depth interviews and questionnaires, within the theoretical framework of Self-regulated Learning Theory. The results from the questionnaires helped construct the influencers behind the motivation to participate in urban self-renewal. Exploratory factorial analyses indicated that such influencing aspects are 1) the nature of the motivation; 2) environment; and 3) resources. Based on the Self-regulated Learning Theory, the influencers were extracted and underwent further statistical analyses to evaluate their various significance levels. The results have shown how people recognize and emphasize the different influencers behind the motivation to participate in urban self-renewal. Empirical results have revealed that the people have a positive attitude toward the expected benefits and values from self-renewal and to a certain extent have developed an awareness of community living environment. However, the people pay less attention to the government's existing mechanisms and resources for promoting self-renewal. This means that there is much room for improvement i.e., for the government to better promote the policies in relation to self-renewal. |
