Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, bireylerin bir kıyı parkındaki görsel kalite algılarını etkileyen faktörleri belirlemektir. Bu hedefe ulaşmak için parkı sık ziyaret eden öğrenciler arasında bir görsel anket yapılmıştır. Toplanan veriler istatistiksel yöntemler kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonucunda, cinsiyetin görsel kalite algısını anlamlı bir şekilde etkilemediği belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca, deniz kenarında yaşayan katılımcılar ile yaşamayanlar arasında görsel kalite algısı açısından bir fark bulunmamıştır. Ancak, katılımcıların şehirde yaşadıkları yıl sayısının görsel kalite algısında göreceli bir etkisi olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Şehirde 2 yıla kadar yaşayanlar için görsel kalite algısının nispeten sabit kaldığı, ancak 2 ile 3 yıl arasında yaşayanlar için arttığı görülmüştür. Bununla birlikte, 3 yıldan fazla yaşayanlar için görsel kalite algısının giderek azaldığı tespit edilmiştir.

Measuring the Perception of Visual Quality in a Coastal Park: Akyazı Coastal Park (Ordu-Turkey)

Abstract

The aim of this study is to identify the factors that influence individuals' perception of visual quality in a coastal park. To achieve this, a visual questionnaire was conducted among students who frequently visit the park. The data collected was analysed using statistical methods. The study concluded that gender does not significantly affect visual quality perception. Additionally, there was no difference in visual quality perception between participants who live by the sea and those who do not. However, the number of years that participants have lived in the city does have a relative impact on their perception of visual quality. The study found that visual quality perception remained relatively stable for those living in the city for up to 2 years but increased for those living in the city between 2 and 3 years. However, for those living more than 3 years, the perception of visual quality then gradually decreased.

Keywords
