本文采用结构方程模型，结合行人社会经济特征、地铁站800 m缓冲区内实测的微尺度和中尺度建筑环境因素，探讨了影响行人步行可达性满意度的显著因素。问卷调查在印度德里15个地铁站的集水区进行，包括社会经济特征、出行特征和人们对微观建筑环境因素的满意度等问题。中尺度建成环境因子是各地铁车站集水区内测量的空间指标。研究中建立的模型表明，在地铁站可达性方面，微观因素而非宏观因素显著影响行人满意度。研究结果有助于更好地理解影响步行可达性的因素，并为规划者提供改善地铁步行可达性的政策干预建议。
The paper investigates the significant factors affecting pedestrians' satisfaction on walking accessibility to the metro station using Structural equation modelling considering socioeconomic characteristics of pedestrians, microscale, and mesoscale built environment factors measured within the 800-meter buffer area of metro stations. Questionnaire survey conducted within the catchment areas of fifteen metro stations in Delhi, India, consisted of questions regarding socioeconomic characteristics, trip characteristics, and peoples' satisfaction on microscale built environment factors. The mesoscale built environment factors were the spatial indicators measured within the catchment area of each metro station. Models developed in the study determined that microscale factors, rather than macroscale factors, significantly affect pedestrian satisafction in regards to the accessibility of metro stations. Study findings help in better comprehension of factors affecting walking accessibility and suggesting policy interventions for planners in improving walking accessibility to the metro.
