Study On The Impact Of Greenway Environment On College Students' Leisure Physical Activities

As a relatively new fitness path,the East Lake Greenway is popular among a large number of surrounding people in Wuhan with its unique advantages.It also provides a new way for college students' leisure physical activity.In this paper,we investigate the relevant questions about the leisure physical activities of 304 college students in Wuhan exercising on the East Lake Greenway,by using survey methods,literature methods,interviews,mathematical statistics and other research methods on understanding the current built environment of the Greenway.With the analysis of the correlation between population sociological variables,built environmental perception factors,and college students' leisure physical activity factors through independent sample T test,one-way ANOVA,and spearman correlation analysis and logistic regression analysis,we screen out the factors affecting the leisure physical activity of college students,in order to add new connotation to improving the life quality of college students and the implementation of college students' physical health strategy.This also provides reference for promoting sustainable development of the Greenway environment.Research results:1.Through independent sample T test and one-way analysis of variance,results show that:school area(P=0.03<0.05),education level(P=0.002<0.01),presence or absence of chronic disease(P=0.001?0.001),physical health status(P=0.029<0.05)had significant difference between environmental perception scores.2.Through the spearman correlation in sociological variables of population and casual physical activity,as for exercise intensity,the correlation coefficients of gender,school area,presence or absence of part-time work,presence or absence of chronic diseases,use of exercise APP,and activity time period were 0.407,0.841,-0.693,0.774,0.680,and 0.41 respectively,which were significantly correlated.In terms of exercise frequency,the correlation coefficient of school district,education level,presence or absence of part-time work,physical examination,and physical health status were 0.350,-0.681,-0.374,0.307,and 0.361 respectively,which were significantly correlated.As for duration,the correlation coefficient of whether there was part-time job,presence or absence of chronic diseases,physical health,and activity time were-0.278,0.345,0.310,and 0.698 respectively,which were significantly correlated.3.In the spearman correlation analysis of the environmental dimensions of the East Lake Greenway and leisure physical activity,public service accessibility(r=0.325,r=0.655,r=0.426),road infrastructure(r=0.754,r=0.542,r=0.542,r=0.432)are positively correlated with the exercise intensity,exercise frequency and duration factor of recreational physical activity.4.Adding the demographic sociological variables as control variables and conducting the multiple logistic regression analysis,the results show that the two dimensions of road infrastructure(P=0.003<0.01,B=1.098),safety and crime(P=0.024<0.05,B=874)were positively correlated with the exercise intensity of recreational physical activity.The fitness facilities(P=0.000<0.001,B=1.134),public service accessibility(P=0.009<0.01,B=1.417),traffic conditions(P=0.004<0.01,B=0.931),health and aesthetics(P=0.017<0.05,B=0.842)were positively correlated with the exercise frequency of recreational physical activity.The three dimensions of public service accessibility(P=0.002<0.01,B=0.920),road infrastructure(P=0.018<0.05,B=0.873),health and aesthetics(P=0.000<0.001,B=1.085)were positively correlated with the duration of recreational physical activity.Research conclusions:1.The two factors of self-health status and the use of sports APP have a significant effect on the promotion of physical activity of college students.2.The two dimensions of road infrastructure and safety and crime in the Greenway can promote the sports intensity and form of college students' leisure physical activity.3.The four dimensions of fitness facilities,public service accessibility,traffic conditions,sanitation and greening,and landscape conditions in the Greenway environment can promote the increase in the frequency of college students' physical exercise there.4.The three dimensions of public service accessibility,road infrastructure and health and aesthetics in the Greenway environment can promote the increase in the continuity of college students' physical exercise there.
