본 연구는 공원별 유치거리를 기준으로 보행자가 도달할 수 있는 거리에 따른 서비스 면적 값을 통하여 공원별 접근성 분석을 하고자 한다. 공원별 서비스 면적 값의 도출을 위하여 첫째, 연령 계층의 분류와 보행속도 평균값을 도출하였다. 둘째, 전주시 도보 네트워크를 구축하였다. 셋째, 구축된 도보 네트워 크에 보행 저항요인 중 경사도와 보행 저항성 식을 입력하여 저항요인을 포함한 도보 네트워크를 구축 하였다. 위 데이터들을 기반으로 네트워크 분석을 통해 연령 계층별 속도를 고려한 서비스 면적, 보행 저항요인을 고려한 서비스 면적을 도출하였다. 형성된 서비스 면적간의 뚜렷한 값의 차이를 보여주기 위해 법정 유치거리에 의한 서비스 면적을 기준으로 비율로 수치화하여 비교하였다. 분석결과 보행 저항요인이 고려되지 않은 네트워크에서 청․장년층의 경우 유치거리에 의한 서비스 면적보다 최소 –4.1%, 최대 –53.4%의 감소율을 나타낸다. 고령층의 경우 보행 저항요인이 고려되지 않은 네트워크에 서 최소 –23.9%, 최대 –69.4%라는 큰 격차의 서비스 면적 감소율이 분석되었다. 또한 청·장년층과 고령 층 모두 저항요인이 고려된 네트워크에서 나타나는 서비스 면적은 저항요인을 고려하지 않았을 때 보 다 약 2~3%의 면적이 감소함을 보였다. 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 기존의 설정된 법정 유치거리는 연령 계층, 보행 저항요인 등 다양한 변수를 고려하지 않은 직선거리만의 평균값이며, 기존의 제도적 장치 를 지속해서 사용한다면 서비스 면적의 감소율은 연령 계층과 시간의 흐름에 따라 증가 할 것이다. 본 연구는 기존 산정된 법정 유치거리를 기준으로 연령계층과 보행 저항요인의 고려를 통해 유지되어 왔 던 제도적 장치가 변화가 필요하다는 점을 시각화하고 수치화 하는데 의의가 있다.

본 연구는 매력적인 정주여건을 조성하고, 도시의 활력을 증진시키고자 둘레길 및 보행환경을 적절히 평가하기 위해 필요한 평가요소를 도출하고 이를 이용하여 세종시에 조성된 도심둘레길 이용자를 대상으로 보행환경 요소별 만족도 비교 및 통계분석을 실시하였다. 이용자 만족도에 영향을 미치는 보행환경요소별 영향력을 도출하였는데 그 결과 세종시 도심둘레길에 대한 인식은 “잘 알고 있다”가 5.3%로 대다수 이용객들은 세종시의 도심둘레길에 대해 인지하지 못한 채 이용을 하고 있는 것으로 나타났고, 평균 소요시간은 30분-1시간이 44.7%로 가장 높게 나타났다. 도심둘레길 내에서도 구간별 이용이 활발한 곳과 활발하지 못한 곳이 구분되는 것으로 분석되었으며, 코스별 보행환경에 대한 만족도는 전반적으로 비슷하게 나타났으며, 전체적으로 편의성 요인이 각 코스별 만족도 평균보다 높게 나타났다. 이와 반대로 안전성 요인의 만족도가 낮은 것으로 나타났으며 청사 둘레길은 쾌적성 요인이 다른 두 코스보다 만족도가 낮게 나타났고, 장소성 요인은 높게 나타났다. 이는 다른 두 코스와는 다르게 상업지역 위주로 구성이 되어 있기 때문으로 분석되었다. 도심둘레길에 대한 보행환경 만족도에 대한 요인분석은 길의 상태, 시설만족도, 장소성, 길의 접근성, 특수 환경, 코스 외부요인, 안전성 총 7개의 요인으로 분석되었다.

This study is about the investigation of the walking environment of the First Experimental Elementary School in Shapingba District of Chongqing City and the Zaozilanya Elementary School in Yuzhong District and the analysis of the pedestrian's consciousness. The improvement plan is obtained by comparing and analyzing the walking environment around the school. The survey results are as follows. According to the survey results of the walking environment around the school, the sidewalks of the two schools are relatively narrow, and there are more pedestrians crossing the road. There is a phenomenon of parking in both schools. The phenomenon of parking in Zaozilanya Elementary School is even more serious. In investigating the most important elements of the school's pedestrian environment, the setting of the signpost, the setting of the crosswalk and signal lights, the setting of the fence, the setting of the vehicle's deceleration facilities, and the control of the school gate are all necessary. Therefore, in order to create a safe and comfortable improvement plan for the surrounding environment of the school, first of all, in the improvement of the facilities around the school, the setting of the fence, the setting of the speed bump, the improvement of the crosswalk and the signal light. Second, in terms of restrictions, the scope of protection around the school needs to be expanded, and restrictions on parking and restrictions on vehicle traffic need to be implemented. Third, in terms of education and publicity, it is not only necessary to provide safety guidance for students to go to school, but also to provide drivers with driving safety education and publicity.

Background: The method of measuring the walking function of patients with chronic stroke differs depending on patients walking capability and environmental conditions. Objects: This study aimed to demonstrate the influences of walking capacity and environmental conditions on the results of short- and long-distance walk tests in patients with chronic stroke. Methods: Forty patients with chronic stroke volunteered for this study, and allocated to group-1 (<.4㎧, household walking, n1=13), group-2 (.4∼.8㎧, limited community ambulation, n2=16), and group-3 (>.8㎧, community ambulation, n3=11) according to their walking capacity. The 10-meter walk test (10MWT) and 6-min walk tests, (6MWT) were used to compare the short- and long-distance walk tests results, which were randomly performed under indoor and outdoor environmental conditions. Results: The comparison of the results obtained under the indoor and outdoor conditions revealed statistically significant differences between the groups in the 6MWT and 10MWT (p<.05). Post-hoc tests’ results showed significant differences between groups-1 and -2 and between groups-1 and -3 in the 10MWT, and between group-1 and -3 in the 6MWT. Furthermore, in group-2 the 10MWT and 6MWT results significantly differed between the indoor and outdoor conditions, and the values measured under the indoor and outdoor conditions significantly differed between 10MWT and 6MWT (p<.05). Group-3 showed a significant difference in 10MWT results between the indoor and outdoor conditions (p<.05). Conclusion: These findings suggest that the results of the short- and long-distance walk tests may differ depending on the walking capacity of patients with chronic stroke and the environmental condition under which the measurement is made, and these effects were greatest for the patients with the limited community ambulation capacity.

본 연구는 야간 가로공간의 보행자 만족도에 미치는 물리적, 심리적 요인을 파악하여 야간 보행환경 개선을 위한 방안을 제시하고 있다. 이를 위해 강원도 원주시 소재 가로수가 잘 조성된 주거지 주변의 대로를 중심으로 야간 보행 만족도에 미치는 요인을 파악하기 위해 설문을 실시하였다. 설문분석을 통하여 야간 보행만족도에 미치는 물리적 요인으로 도로정비 요인과 조명환경 요인이 추출되었으며 심리적 요인으로 범죄위협 요인과 야간 보행안전성 요인이 추출되었다. 회귀분석을 통하여 추출된 요인이 야간 보행만족도에 미치는 영향을 분석한 결과 물리적 도로정비 요인은 야간 보행만족도에 영향이 없는 것으로 나타났으며 심리적 요인인 범죄위협 요인과 물리적 요인인 조명환경 요인의 영향이 큰 것으로 분석되었다. 이는 최근 대두되고 있는 범죄예방환경설계의 방향과 일치하며 조명환경 요인을 개선함에 따라 범죄위협 요인도 개선하여 궁극적으로 야간 보행만족도를 향상시킬 수 있음을 의미한다. 결과를 바탕으로 가로 공간의 설계 시 조명환경 개선의 필요성에 대한 배경으로 활용할 수 있으며 경관시뮬레이션을 활용하여 다양한 설계 대안 제시에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of perceived walking environment around neighborhood on satisfaction for old adults in Daegu. The study was conducted using 407 questionnaires were collected through the survey. The walking environment was categorized into accessibility to neighborhood walking facilities and walking environment around path. Regarding perception of walking accessibility, access to ‘public transit stops’ and to ‘medical facilities’ was relatively high. For walking environment, ‘pavement condition’, ‘continuity of sidewalk’, and ‘slope of sidewalk’ were rated relatively high. Multiple regression analysis after factor analysis of walking environment variables showed that religious and convenient facilities, park and leisure facilities, and medical and welfare facilities had a significant effect on satisfaction in walking accessibility. For walking environment the convenience for walking, safety for walking, and amenities for walking had a significant effect on satisfaction. The findings from this study can be used for improving the walking environment for old adults.

The objective of this study was to investigate the perception of walking environment and use of neighborhood facilities of rural female elderly, who are the most susceptible to ambulatory problems. The study showed that parks, senior centers and hospitals were among the most frequently used neighborhood facilities by rural female elderly, while bus stations and senior centers were recognized as the closest facilities. Frequency of use was higher for paid sports facilities rather than parks. Hospitals and health centers were facilities that were desired to be in close proximity. Social support, self-efficacy, and attitude were the factors that affected walking environment. Street trees, accessibility to parks, and street lights were factors that showed a positive relationship with total time of walking activity while perceived crime rate and slopes were perceived as environmental challenges for groups that walked under 150 minutes per week. One factor that negatively affected walking was the lack of sidewalks on streets. Providing parks and walking trails within neighborhood, pleasant walking environments, and safe sidewalks would contribute to improved perception of neighborhood and walking of older rural women.

The promotion of walking and bicycling is recently a hot topic in the urban planning and design field. Many planners have already examined the many components of the land use-transportation connection and built environment-physical activity link. A rapidly growing area of urban form research is to measure the level of walkability in urban environments. With this background, this research conducted a preliminary study to develop the evaluation indicators of pedestrian environments. Based on the literature reviews on walking or pedestrian environments, we proposed the seventeen indicators related with pedestrian facilities, road attributes and walking environment. We also performed a questionary survey to evaluate the satisfaction of their neighborhood pedestrian environments for 302 randomly selected adults living in the City of Changwon, Gyeongsangnam-do. Finally, this research provided the valid model to evaluate the effects of physical environmental factors on the walking satisfaction using factor analysis and multiple regression analysis.
