Interesting point. There's been a recent move by US public housing agencies away from mass high rises like the old (and infamous) Cabrini-Green housing complex in Chicago to more 'open' architecture that allows for a 'greater sense of community.' It appears from statistics that mass high rise housing tends to breed crime, depression, and dependency.

Do you think ARCHITECTURE influences group psychology?
You mean like New Orleans ( before the flood ofcourse ).
That has the look of prosperity.
