چکیده

مشکلات زیست‌محیطی نتیجه عمل انسان بوده و بدرفتاری‌های انسان در قبال محیط‌زیست به‌عنوان خطیرترین تهدید در درازمدت نسبت به جهان شناخته شده‌اند. بنابراین شناسایی عواملی که می‌تواند رفتار و نگرش افراد در قبال محیط‌زیست را تغییر دهد و رفتار مسئولانه را ایجاد کند از اهمیت بالایی برخوردار است. هدف این مطالعه بررسی تأثیر عوامل اجتماعی و ساختاری شهری بر نگرش و رفتار شهروندان شهرستان اصفهان است. تا بتوان برای ایجاد شرایط برای بهبود نگرش و رفتارهای دوستانه نسبت به محیط‌زیست از آن بهره گرفت. این تحقیق از نوع تحلیل_توصیفی است و اطلاعات موردنیاز از طریق پرسشنامه از نمونه 400 نفری جمعیت بالای 18 سال شهرستان اصفهان گردآوری شده است. برای پردازش داده‌های به دست آمده از آزمون‌های آماری همبستگی پیرسون، رگرسیون چندمتغیره و تحلیل مسیر در نرم‌افزار SPSS استفاده شده است. بررسی رابطه بین متغیرها حاکی از آن است که رابطه سرمایه اجتماعی، آگاهی، تعلق مکانی، نگرش نوین زیست‌محیطی، سرمایه مدنی و امکانات ساختاری شهری با رفتار زیست‌محیطی پاسخگویان مثبت و معنادار است. نتایج تحلیل رگرسیون نشان داد، سرمایه مدنی، تعلق مکانی، نگرش نوین زیست‌محیطی و امکانات ساختاری شهری، 240/0 از تغییرات متغیر وابسته را تبیین می‌کند. بنابراین توجه با ساختار فیزیکی شهر همچون جذابیت، امکانات رفاهی و تفریحی، دسترسی آسان به سیستم‌هایی همچون حمل‌ونقل و ...، ایجاد پیاده‌روهایی با قابلیت افزایش تعامل شهروندان و افزایش سرمایه اجتماعی تعلق مکانی بالایی را به همراه دارد که منجر به افزایش نگرش و رفتارهای مسئولانه زیست‌محیطی می‌شود.

چکیده [English]

Environmental problems are the result of human actions, and human misconduct towards the environment has been recognized as the most serious long-term threat to the world. Therefore, identifying factors that can change individuals' attitudes and behaviors towards the environment and promote responsible behavior is of utmost importance. The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of social and urban structural factors on the attitudes and behaviors of citizens in Isfahan county in order to create conditions for improving friendly attitudes and behaviors towards the environment. This research is of the descriptive analysis type, and the necessary information was collected through questionnaires from a sample of 400 citizens over 18 years of age in urban and rural populations of Isfahan.Statistical tests such as Pearson correlation, multiple regression, and path analysis were used for data processing in the SPSS software. The research findings indicate that the level of environmental behaviors among respondents is above average. The examination of the relationship between variables suggests that there is a positive and significant relationship between social capital, awareness, sense of place, modern environmental attitude, civic capital, and urban structural facilities and opportunities with citizens' environmental behaviors in Isfahan. Furthermore, regression analysis results indicate that civic capital, sense of place, modern environmental attitude, and urban structural facilities and opportunities explain%24 of the variance of the dependent variable. Therefore, attention to the physical structure of the city such as attractiveness, welfare and recreational facilities, easy access to systems such as transportation, etc., creates pedestrian-friendly environments with the potential to increase citizen interaction and enhance social capital with a high sense of place, leading to an increase in responsible environmental attitudes and behaviors.
