The Construction Of Urban Healthy Living Unit Based On Behavior Change Theory

Health has a long history with modern urban planning, promoted the formation of modern urban planning. Function division and a variety of indicators, such as sunshine spacing and the green rate, all of these implicate the health care. But now only ensure that residents have plenty of sunshine and fresh air have been unable to deal with complex health problems. Health problems caused by unhealhty lifestyles have become the greatest threat to residents, which requires us to reconsider the direction and approch of the construction of healthy city.Sedentary lifestyle is the typical one in many unhealthy lifestyles, and also the one having the closest relationship with urban space. The sedentary trend of the four categories of behaviors including housework, working, commuting and leisure are the causes of sedentary lifestyle. Among them, commuting and leisure activities directly related to the condition of urban space.Therefore, the paper selects these two types of sedentary behavior as the starting point, introduced behavior change theory into the research. Based on the three factors of behavior change including predisposing factors, enabling factors and enhancing factors, the paper explored the logical relationship between the three factors and urban space, constructed the healthy living unit model, and explored its application.The logical relationship between behavior change factors and urban space determined the three characteristics of urban space promoted active living behavior. For the purpose of overall health protection, the urban space embodied the features of function unit; For the accessibility of resources, the urban space embodied the features of space unit; For the long-term health protection, the urban space embodied the features of growth unit.In accordance with the three features of urban space, the paper put forward the concept of healthy living unit, discussed its functional content as a supply unit for the individual needs, explained its function orientation as the basic health needs supply, described its size and spce structure composed by health skeleton and patches, built up the space model of urban healthy living unit.The construction of healthy living uint laid a theoretical foundation for practical application. By expound the function of healthy living unit from the individual supply model to uniformly healthy habitat unit, extended its adaptability in practice, showed the perfomance as planning unit, provided the construction platform for practice. Base on that, the paper proposed the planning guidance for the construction of healthy living unit. And taken Lotus street of Shenzhen as an example, the paper explored the application of healthy living unit.
