客观的。确定成年城市居民中建筑环境、社会环境和个人因素与骑自行车交通的关联。方法。使用计算机辅助电话采访对奥地利格拉茨市 1000 名居民的代表性样本进行了调查，探讨骑车行为以及相关的个人、社会和环境因素。结果。骑自行车出行的普及率为22.5%。在调整性别、年龄、教育程度、体力活动水平和从家到目的地的距离后，骑自行车与自行车道连通性（OR=2.09）和社会支持/建模（OR=1.62）呈正相关，与“身体不适”（OR=0.49）和“不切实际的交通方式”（OR=0.50）等感知障碍呈负相关。交互作用分析表明，体力活跃的人对“快速”的感知益处的影响比不活动的人更强，而女性对“不切实际的交通方式”的感知障碍的影响比男性更强。结论。除了与自行车相关的社会支持以及感知到的好处和障碍之外，自行车道的连通性可能是自行车作为成年城市居民的交通方式的重要决定因素。 (C) 2008 Elsevier Inc. 保留所有权利。
Objective. To determine the association of built-environment, social-environment, and personal-level factors with bicycling for transportation, among adult city dwellers.Method. Survey of a representative sample of 1000 inhabitants of the city of Graz, Austria, using a computer-assisted telephone interview addressing cycling behavior and associated personal, social and environmental factors.Results. The prevalence of biking for transportation was 22.5%. After adjustment for gender, age, education, physical activity level and distance from home to destination, cycling was positively associated with the presence of bike lane connectivity (OR=2.09) and social support/modeling (OR=1.62), and negatively associated with the perceived barriers of "physical discomfort" (OR=0.49) and "an impractical transport mode" (OR=0.50). Analysis of interactions indicated that the effect of the perceived benefit of "rapidity" was stronger in physically active persons than inactive individuals, and the effect of the perceived barrier of "an impractical mode of transportation" was stronger among women than men.Conclusion. In addition to cycling-related social support and perceived benefits and barriers, bike lane connectivity may be an important determinant of cycling as a means of transportation among adult city dwellers.
