A Case Study of Yilan County Luodong Sports Park
With constant growth of the global population and acceleration of urbanization, the population of urban residents, the building coverage rate and the building volumetric rate have been continuously rising, which affects the residents’ living environment and residential quality. The district planning of urban “parks” is to create a “lung” for cities to filter the dust and dirty air of cities and to provide urban residents with a living environment with fresh air and green spots (Lin and Chen 2004). In recent years the ecological environment has deteriorated beyond expectation. Therefore, numerous scholars from different domains conducted a great deal of relevant theoretical research. In respect of the urban planning, the leading subject is the research on the Landscape-ecology Theory. This theory is widely applied to the urban planning. It may be a large-scale planning for a whole city or a small design for a building, a square, a park or a river. The construction bases are planned and designed under the landscape-ecology philosophy. However, after the construction, weather users have a positive attitude towards using of the environment is the main purpose of this study. The field observation on the study base and the questionnaire survey are the two main methods used in the study. The former one is to investigate the software and hardware facilities of the study base by the subjective field observation. The latter one is to interview users by questionnaire. The statistic software, SPSS for Windows 10.1, is used to analyze the questionnaires returned. The descriptive Statistics is firstly used for the analysis of the variables of the questionnaire. Then the cluster analysis, the chi-square test, one-way ANOVA and Scheffe’s test on variables are performed by the needs of study purposes. The study results are as follows:
1. The park was constructed under the planning and design of a commissioned foreign enterprise ten years ago. In respect of the landscape-ecology philosophy of its interior environment, it is found that the park not only provides recreation and entertainment for users but also directly offers perches and concealed space for animals and plants, such as multi-layered planting area , trails in the dense forest, and artificial floating islands, which has ecological environmental value.
2. The assessment items of environmental attitude measurement are divided by the cluster analysis into three clusters, which are the rural style, urban life and environmental adaptation. The chi-square test is performed on the three clusters with the variables, such as users’ social and economic background and the park using background. We find that there are significant differences in age, level of education and environmental protection behavior, such as the execution of garbage classification.
3. Eight orientations , which are fashion, family, money, sports & health, knowledge & culture, confident leadership (, social contact and conservative attitude, are derived from the three clusters of environmental attitude and the assessment items of life style measurement. The one-way ANOVA and Scheffe’s test are performed on the eight orientations and it is found that all the rest 7 orientations except money respectively have a significant difference in the three clusters.
4. In respect of park user satisfaction, time to use shows a significant difference in the satisfaction of district planning. Occupation, period of coming the park, time of coming the park, motivation of coming the park and frequency of coming the park show partially significant differences in the satisfaction of planting categories. Level of education, transportation tool, and time of coming the park have partially significant differences in the satisfaction of traffic pattern planning. Occupation, time to stay, and motivation of coming the park have partially significant differences in the agreement of the park’s ecological environment.
Different social and economic background such as age, level of education will influence the tendency of the environmental attitude. And users with different life style orientations show different tendency of the environmental attitude. It has been ten years since the establishment of the park, so we suggest that it is necessary for the county government to comprehensively examine the use status for all software and hardware facilities in the park. When there is any further planning of increasing new facilities in the future, the government should consider the needs of users’ time to use, using motivation, using background, and social and economic background to meet the needs of different users.
