Çevresel Kriminoloji perspektifine göre bir evin suçlara maruz kalmasını
etkileyen birçok faktör bulunmaktadır. Evden hırsızlık suçunda ise
mahallelerin geçirgenliği önemli bir etkendir. Mahallelerin geçirgenliği ile
evden hırsızlık suçu arasındaki ilişkiyi araştıran birçok çalışma
bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmaların birçoğu geçirgenliği bir ara değişken olarak
tespit etmiştir. Bu çalışma ise Diyarbakır şehri hakkında elde edilmiş olan
çevresel ve suç değişkenlerini içeren bir ikincil veri seti üzerine kurulmuştur.
Analiz sonucunda, mahallelerin geçirgenliği ile evden hırsızlık suçu arasında
anlamlı bir ikili ilişki bulunmuştur. Regresyon modeline ev sayısı değişkeni
dâhil edildiğince ise, geçirgenlik değişkeninin etkisi ortadan kalkmaktadır.
Hem geçirgenliği hem de evden hırsızlık suçunu etkileyen asıl faktörün
mahallede bulunan ev sayısı olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır.

Creating Safe Cities Through Environmental Design: Neighborhood Permeability and Burglary Rates in Diyarbakir, Turkey

Öz

According to Environmental Criminological perspective various factors may affect the vulnerability of a house. In terms of residentiall burglary, permeability is one of the major factors. There have been multiple studies to examine the relationship between the degree of neighborhood permeability and burglary rates. Most of the studies concluded that permeability is a mediating factor for burglary. This study derives on these condary data collected on environmental factors and burglary rates in Diyarbakir. The analysis showed that there is a significant bivariate relationship between neighborhood permeability and burglaryrates. However when number of houses introduced to the regression model, the effect of neighborhood permeability disappears. It is found that the major variable that affects both neighborhood permeability and burglary rates is the number of houses.
