Abstract
The last chapter focused on the process of decision-making, the ways in which people decide what to do. In the next two chapters we look at some of the less tangible reasons why decisions are made. First, we consider what is being constructed as people live with the decisions they have made about their house. This is followed in Chapter 6 with an examination of another part of the backcloth: people’s worries about their lives and how these influence housing decisions.
