To explore the relationships among neighborhood built environment characteristics, psychosocial factors, perceived and objective proximity assessments, and use of a community rail-trail.
Telephone survey data of adults (n=788) in Morgantown, WVa, were classified into one of 4 distance-perception categories based on actual (using geographic information systems technology) and perceived proximity of a community rail-trail.
Differences in psychosocial barriers to physical activity (P=.037) and perceived neighborhood walkability (P<.001) were associated with perceived proximity to and use of a community trail.
Specific attention should be given to address neighborhood and psychosocial barriers when constructing and promoting community trails.
探讨邻里建成环境特征、心理社会因素、感知和客观的距离评估以及社区铁路步道使用之间的关系。
基于社区铁路步道的实际距离(使用地理信息系统技术)和感知距离,将西弗吉尼亚州摩根敦市成年人(n = 788)的电话调查数据分为4种距离感知类别之一。
身体活动的心理社会障碍(P = .037)和邻里可步行性感知(P < .001)的差异与社区步道的感知距离和使用情况相关。
在建设和推广社区步道时,应特别关注解决邻里和心理社会障碍。
