Abstract
Sense of belonging is connection between a person and a place and Parks can promote this sense. In recent years, the covid-19 epidemic has limited the presence of people in parks. Occurrence of psychological diseases, reduction of social interactions and responsibility, and sense of belonging are some of the consequences of this. Therefore, the purpose of this research was to investigate the effective components of parks in promoting people's sense of belonging during the covid-19 pandemic and Three local parks - Goldasht, Ferdous, and parvaz- in west Ferdous neighborhood in District 5 of Tehran were selected for study and 25 effective items were examined under two non-physical and physical components. Data collection was done by content analysis and Delphi method and their study was done by survey method and researcher-made questionnaire tool and by distributing 300 questionnaires. Respondents were classified in terms of age, frequency of visit the park, length of residence in the neighborhood, and having children. The data was analyzed with SPSS20 software and with mean and standard deviation analysis, Friedman test, One-way ANOVA, and independent-sample T-Test. The findings showed that the sense of security, the distance between the park and the house, and the quality of the green space had the greatest effect on promoting the sense of belonging during the Covid-19 pandemic. Also, the results indicated that age, frequency of visit the park, length of residence in the neighborhood, and having children made a significant difference in the responses of the respondents to some items.
