Abstract The purpose of this study is to explore the nature of dog park use and the role that perceived dog park benefits, park proximity, and both individual and neighborhood characteristics play in predicting dog park use. Factor analysis supported two dimensions of perceived benefits from dog parks (i.e., dog benefits and people benefits), which were used as composite variables in analyses. In addition to individual-level data gathered from the sample, this study used distance-related variables (e.g., street network approach to distance, buffer rings) computed from a Geographic Information System and socioeconomic neighborhood-level variables (e.g., percentage White in the neighborhood, home ownership) obtained from census tract data. Group differences, based upon park use, are explored with respect to both dog and people benefits. Logistic regression is used to predict dog owners’ likelihood of using a fenced dog park.

狗公园的使用:感知的好处、公园的邻近性以及个人和社区的影响

摘要 本研究的目的是探索狗公园使用的性质以及感知狗公园利益、公园邻近度以及个人和社区特征在预测狗公园使用中的作用。因子分析支持从狗公园感知利益的两个维度(即狗利益和人利益),它们被用作分析中的复合变量。除了从样本中收集的个人层面的数据外,本研究还使用了从地理信息系统和社会经济邻里层面的变量(例如,白人百分比)计算的与距离相关的变量(例如,距离的街道网络方法、缓冲环)。邻里、房屋所有权)从人口普查数据中获得。根据公园使用情况,在狗和人的利益方面探索了群体差异。
