Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze the perception factors of a pedestrian environment that affect pedestrian environment satisfaction(PES) and determine the relationship between PES and the expected effects of health promotion. The targeted areas of study are neighborhood parks in Suseong-gu, Daegu city. First, regarding the results for the evaluation of pedestrian environment perception, 'Gentle slope' was rated the highest, while factors regarding pedestrian safety such as 'Lots of unpleasant elements', 'Risk from biking and motorcycling' and 'Many obstacles on sidewalks' were rated low. A stepwise regression analysis showed that factors such as 'Fresh air', 'Beautiful scenery', 'Continuity of the sidewalks', 'Various attractions', 'The shade of trees' and 'Lots of unpleasant elements' influenced the PES. Therefore, creating fresh air and shade trees by planting trees and removing unpleasant elements from pedestrian areas are important. Also, it is necessary to cultivate beautiful scenery and attractions through street improvement and improve the continuity of the sidewalks. Finally, in terms of path analysis, PES influenced the frequency of park use, the expected effects of physical and mental health promotion both directly and indirectly.

본 연구는 대구광역시 수성구의 근린공원을 대상으로 건강 유지 및 증진 목적 공원 이용자들의 보행환경 인식이 보행환경 만족도에 미치는 영향을 파악하고, 건강증진 기대효과와의 관계성을 분석하였다. 먼저, 보행환경 인식을 평가한 결과, '완만한 경사'가 가장 높은 평가를 받아 공원까지 접근로의 경사가 완만하여 보행하는데 큰 불편함이 없는 것으로 인식하고 있었으며, '혐오요소가 많음', '장애물이 많음', '이륜차의 위험성' 등 보행안전과 관련된 항목들의 평가가 낮게 나타났다. 이를 바탕으로 보행환경 인식 요소들이 보행환경 만족도에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위해 단계적 회귀분석을 수행한 결과, '공기의 쾌적성', '주변경관의 아름다움', '보도의 연속성', '다양한 볼거리', '나무그늘 제공', '혐오요소가 많음' 등 6개 인식 요소들이 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 수목식재로 쾌적한 대기환경 및 녹음을 제공하고, 가로환경 정비를 통해 혐오요소를 제거해야 한다. 또한 아름다운 경관 조성과 다양한 볼거리 요소를 도입하고, 보도의 연결성을 높이는 등의 노력이 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 마지막으로 거주지에서 공원까지의 보행환경 만족도와 건강증진 기대효과의 관계성을 분석한 결과, 보행환경에 만족할수록 공원 이용이 늘어나고, 더 나아가 신체적, 정신적 건강증진 기대효과가 있는 것으로 분석되었다.
