摘要本研究通过从社交媒体平台Twitter中提取推文，分析了城市环境下公园访问和身体活动之间的关联。结果表明，距离公园0.5英里以内的地区比更远的地区与更多的身体活动相关。公园类型可能是公园规模与身体活动之间相关性的重要中介。这项研究表明，地理定位的Twitter数据是一个可行的信息来源，研究人员询问有关的因素，城市开放空间，可以有助于公众健康。
ABSTRACT This study analysed the association between park access and physical activity in an urban context by extracting tweets from the social media platform Twitter. The results show that areas within a 0.5-mile distance to a park correlate with more physical activity than areas farther than that. Park type might be an essential mediator for the correlation between park size and physical activity. This study suggests that geolocated Twitter data are a viable source of information for researchers inquiring about factors related to urban open space that can contribute to public health.
