大学生的地方依恋特征与形成机制——基于南京仙林大学城的调查

大学城生活主体大学生与之是否存在积极的关系,对大学城的发展具有重要意义。本文选择地方依恋理论,对南京仙林大学城进行实证研究。构建了大学生地方依恋维度模型,运用结构方程模型加以验证和修正,发现大学生的地方依恋具有地方认同、功能依赖和情感依赖三个维度特征,地方依恋进一步有助于地方根植性形成。其中,大学生的功能依赖对地方依恋作用为负。总体上,仙林大学生的地方依恋处于由地方认同到地方依赖的过渡阶段。本研究为近年来中国涌现的大学城建设热提供一种自下而上的评判视角。

STUDY ON CHARACTERISTICS AND FORMATION MECHANISM OF COLLEGE STUDENTS' PLACE ATTACHMENT: BASED ON THE INVESTIGATION OF XIANLIN UNIVERSITY TOWN

University town has become a new form of China's rapid urban expansion since the year of 2000. As an implantation space, whether there is a positive relationship between University town and college students who living in it primarily would be significant to its development. Place attachment is a positive sentiment based on our spatial cognition, understanding of significance, replication function, and activity participation about one place. It is concluded that place attachment of college students is consisted of three mutually improved dimensions, which are place identity, function dependence and affective attachment. Each dimension has different influence on place attachment. But the generative mechanism of place attachment of college students has its unique characteristics compared with general city dwellers. Mainly because of the half floating and half socialized features of college students, the interaction between college students and locality is temporary and indirect, which is severed intermittently or moved to other place during holidays or after graduation. This paper proposes a bottom-up perspective to assess the construction of university town. Rich and varied festive events, innovative and accessible public space, plenty employment opportunities would help increase college students' place attachment.
