Table A1.

Descriptive mean values of the 14 spatial variables used to compute the variable university vs home space quality across groups of respondents. Each variable is rated on a five-points Likert scale (−2=prefer home; +2 = prefer university). In bold are highlighted minimum and maximum mean values
