Human life includes both positive and negative emotions. Liveliness is a positive emotion that gives meaning to the lives of humans. Hence, considering the importance of this type of emotion which has ample uses in urban areas and that this emotion surrounds mechanical societies as well, making use of it in urban areas is necessary and inevitable. Therefore, one of the main goals of this study is to recognize the factors that lead to people liveliness in urban areas. This becomes possible through having a comprehensive knowledge of humans, exploring the psychological factors that influence liveliness, knowing what theorists posit about the factors that create liveliness in humans and how these factors are manifested in urban areas, knowing the level of influence and surrounding factors and perceptions that ultimately lead to the experience of this positive emotion. Utilizing these factors in urban areas, we can construct areas that people feel lively when in them. This way, people tend to spend more time in these areas.
