背景:随着全球城市化的迅速升级,蓝绿空间在城市生态中的作用,公共卫生,规划日益突出。虽然他们对生态保护的贡献,公共卫生,城市设计被广泛认可,对公众参与和参与这些空间管理和规划的意愿的研究仍处于早期阶段。
目的:本研究旨在确定影响公众参与蓝绿空间管理意愿的关键因素,特别关注人们对蓝绿色空间的感知(包括感知质量和可访问性),他们的使用行为(即,蓝绿空间的使用频率),以及他们自我评估的身心健康。
方法:我们通过随机抽样对当地居民进行访谈,以获取样本数据,并使用代表性样本(n=815,510名女性;305名男性,年龄18-85岁,在成都生活了很长一段时间)居住在成都的居民,中国。采用定量方法,我们研究了性别等因素之间的关系,常规职业,收入,行为,和健康状况与参与意愿有关。此外,我们探索了感知和行为如何影响健康状况,因此,倾向于参与。
结果:研究结果表明,具有稳定职业和较高收入的个人更倾向于从事蓝绿空间的管理和规划。值得注意的是,男性比女性表现出更大的参与倾向。此外,进入蓝绿色空间成为解决健康差距的重要机制,对城市规划和公共卫生具有重要意义。
结论:成功的蓝绿空间规划和对参与意愿的理解需要全面考虑人们对蓝绿空间的看法,他们的使用行为和他们的自我评价健康状况。为了对卫生公平和全球城市发展产生切实影响,在规划中优先考虑蓝绿色空间是至关重要的,特别是在低收入地区。这不仅可以促进环境观念,而且可以成为解决健康差异的战略方法。我们的发现为实现这些目标定制国际城市规划和管理实践提供了重要的见解。
BACKGROUND: With the rapid escalation of global urbanization, the role of blue-green spaces in urban ecology, public health, and planning has become increasingly prominent. Although their contributions to ecological preservation, public health, and urban design are widely acknowledged, research into public engagement and willingness to participate in the management and planning of these spaces is still in its early stages.
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to identify key factors influencing public willingness to participate in blue-green space management, focusing specifically on people\'s perceptions of blue-green spaces (including perceived quality and accessibility), their usage behaviors (i.e., frequency of usage of blue-green spaces), and their self-assessed physical and mental health.
METHODS: We interviewed local residents through random sampling to obtain sample data, and used a representative sample (n = 815, 510 women; 305 men, age 18-85 years, lived in Chengdu for an extensive time) of residents living in Chengdu City, China. Employing a quantitative approach, we examined the relationships between factors such as gender, regular occupation, income, behavior, and health status in relation to the willingness to participate. Additionally, we explored how perceptions and behaviors impacted health statuses and, consequently, inclinations to participate.
RESULTS: The findings indicate that individuals with steady occupations and higher incomes are more inclined to engage in the management and planning of blue-green spaces. Notably, men exhibited a greater tendency to participate than women. Furthermore, access to blue-green spaces emerged as a crucial mechanism for addressing health disparities, offering significant implications for urban planning and public health.
CONCLUSIONS: Successful blue-green space planning and understanding of willingness to participate necessitates the holistic consideration of people\'s perceptions of blue-green spaces, their usage behaviour and their self-rate health. For a tangible impact on health equity and global urban development, it\'s essential to prioritize blue-green spaces in planning, especially in lower-income regions. This not only promotes environmental perception but can also be a strategic approach to address health disparities. Our findings offer vital insights for tailoring international urban planning and management practices towards these goals.
