建筑环境会影响居民的健康和福祉。土地利用规划具有促进居民健康和福祉的潜力。提供更绿色的城市环境是土地使用规划者可以实现这一目标的一种机制。本研究的目的是探讨如何绿地和体育活动可能提供协同福利的好处，以及如何任何这种假设的协同作用可能取决于居民的看法邻里的亲和力和不礼貌。使用澳大利亚家庭，收入和劳动力动态（HILDA）调查和地理信息系统（GIS）的数据，结果表明，一个更友好，更支持的社区放大了（10倍以上）绿地和身体活动的协同作用。相比之下，研究结果表明，从事体育活动的居民，并在其所在地区有较高水平的绿地遭受福祉负担的居民认为在附近的不文明程度较高。虽然肯定不是没有自己的局限性，但这些结果扩展了现有的研究工作，旨在解开绿色空间，身体活动和健康之间联系的复杂性。此外，本研究报告的调查结果可能有助于土地使用规划者和政策制定者在普遍存在的邻里观念、人口持续增长和人均绿地减少的情况下寻求协调维持或改善居民福祉的挑战。(C)2016爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有
The built environment can affect a resident's health and wellbeing. Land use planning has the potential promote the health and wellbeing of residents. The provision of greener urban environments is one mechanism through which land use planners might achieve this end. The purpose of this study is to examine how greenspace and physical activity may provide synergistic wellbeing benefits and how any such hypothesised synergy might depend on a resident's perceptions of neighbourhood affability and incivility. Using data from the Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) survey and Geographic Information Systems (GIS), the results suggest that a friendlier and more supportive neighbourhood amplifies (by more than 10 times) the greenspace and physical activity synergy. In contrast, the results suggest that residents who engage in physical activity and have higher levels of greenspace in their local area suffer a wellbeing burden where the resident perceives higher levels of incivility in the neighbourhood. While certainly not without their own limitations, these results extend on existing research efforts directed at disentangling the complexity underpinning the links between greenspace, physical activity and wellbeing. Moreover, the findings reported in this study may prove useful to land use planners and policy makers seeking to reconcile the challenges of maintaining or improving residents' wellbeing in the face of pervasive neighbourhood perceptions, continuing population growth and declining per capita greenspace.
