Abstract

Kent parkları, kentin
kültürel ve doğal özelliklerini yansıtan ve kentte yaşayan her birey için aktif
ve/veya pasif rekreasyon olanağı sunan alanlardır. Park alanlarının ziyareti
ile bu alanların kullanımından kaynaklı memnuniyet arasında pozitif yönlü bir
ilişki vardır. Bu kapsamda, park ve açık alan yöneticilerinin park
düzenlemelerine yönelik temel uğraşılarından biri de ziyaretçileri memnun
edecek olanaklar sunmaktır. Yapılan bu çalışmanın amacı da  Antalya kent merkezinde bulunan ve önemli bir
rekreasyon merkezi olan Atatürk Kültür Parkı ziyaretçilerinin genel memnuniyet
düzeylerini ve bu memnuniyet düzeyine etki eden demografik faktörleri ve park
kullanım özelliklerini belirmektir. Çalışmaya, kolayda örneklem yöntemi ile
seçilmiş 331 gönüllü kişi katılmıştır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre, yaş, meslek,
çocuk sahibi olma ve park ziyaret biçimi bireylerin park kullanımı
memnuniyetini etkilemektedir. İleri yaş grubundaki, emekli ve çocuk sahibi olan
bireyler ile, park ziyaretini aileleriyle birlikte yapan bireylerin park
kullanımına yönelik memnuniyet düzeyleri diğer kullanıcılara oranla yüksektir. Yapılacak
olan planlama çalışmalarında bu sonuçların değerlendirilmesi ve bu sonuçları
ortaya çıkaran durumların derinlemesine araştırılması önerilmektedir.

Abstract

Urban parks are areas that reflect the cultural and natural characteristics of the city and offer active and / or passive recreation opportunities for every people who lives in the city. There is a positive correlation between the visits of park areas and the satisfaction of the use of these areas. In this context, one of the main activities of park and outdoor recreation area managers for park arrangements is to provide opportunities to satisfy the visitors. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of visitors’ park usage characteristics and demographic characteristics on overall park usage satisfaction in Atatürk Cultural Park which is an important recreation center in Antalya. The study included 331 volunteers, who were selected by convenience sampling method. According to the results of the study, age, occupation, having a child and groups of visiting the park affect the satisfaction levels of park users. Park visitors who have retired and have children in the older age group and those who visit the park together with their families have higher levels of satisfaction. Authors recommended that these results be evaluated in the planning studies to be carried out and in-depth investigation of the situations that reveal these results.
