旅遊城市居民與遊客之「知覺環境可步行性」：構面建構及其與步行關聯性分析

Perceived Environment Walkability of Residents and Tourists in a Tourism City: Building Constructs and Analyzing Their Associations with Walking

旅遊城市中遊客和居民重視的步行環境元素與影響步行的環境因素相異，但文獻未釐清兩異質群體差異，且多採客觀環境指標而難以反映步行體驗。為探討異質群體的步行體驗及其與步行之關聯，本研究以中國蘇州市姑蘇區為例，設計分別評估居民和遊客步行體驗的「知覺環境可步行性」量表，並蒐集個體步行體驗和步行時間。結果顯示構成居民「知覺環境可步行性」最重要因素為「步行設施」，遊客則為「審美趣味」；「服務可及性」與「土地使用多元性」可縮短遊客步行時間，「審美趣味」則會延長之，而居民步行時間未受「知覺環境可步行性」影響。最後，本研究依步行環境因素重要度和表現度提出步行體驗改善措施、依該些因素對步行之影響提出步行促進策略。

In tourism cities, tourists’emphasis on walking environment elements and environmental factors in walking behavior may differ from those of residents. However, the literature has not clarified the differences between the two heterogeneous groups and has often used objective environmental indexes that do not reflect walking experiences. To explore the heterogeneous groups’walking experiences and their associations with walking, this study took Gusu District, Suzhou, China, as the case, designed the respective measurements of“perceived environment walkability”evaluating residents’and tourists’walking experiences, and collected individual walking experiences and walking duration. Results indicated that the most critical factor in“perceived environment walkability”for residents was“infrastructure for walking,”whereas that for tourists was“aesthetics”;“access to services”and“land use diversity”could shorten tourists’walking duration, and“aesthetics”could extend it, but residents’walking duration was not influenced by“perceived environment walkability.”Finally, this study proposed walking experience improvement measures based on the importance and performance of walking environmental factors and proposed walking promotion strategies based on the factors’influences.
