A study on the effect of resident perception of urban regeneration project on local identity and resident satisfaction

Abstract

1. CONTENTS (1) RESEARCH OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study is to examine the concept of urban regeneration project and to examine how local residents perceive the urban regeneration project. In addition, this study tried to find out how the perception of impact of urban regeneration projects affects local identity and resident satisfaction, and how local identity affects resident satisfaction. (2) RESEARCH METHOD As a research method, to verify the structural equation model, which has the advantage that measurement errors can be controlled and statistical evaluation of the theoretical model is possible, first, the error of the measurement model is corrected through confirmation factor analysis, and then path analysis was performed. . In addition, reliability and validity were reviewed based on the results of the confirmation factor analysis. For data analysis in this study, social science statistical package program SPSS 21.0 was used, and AMOS 21.0 was used for the structural equation model. (3) RESEARCH DIFFERENCES Although factors and influence relationships such as awareness, understanding, and satisfaction of local residents must be taken into account for a successful urban regeneration project, an analysis of the influence relationship between the residents in the adjacent urban regeneration project area has not been conducted. Therefore, in this study, This study analyzed how the perception of the impact of the recently active urban regeneration project on local residents affects the local identity and resident satisfaction of the local residents. 2. RESULTS The results of the study through empirical analysis are summarized as follows. First, it was confirmed that the residents' perception of impact (environmental, social, economic) of the urban regeneration project had a statistically positive (+) effect on local identity. These results are in line with the results of previous studies by Paasi (2003) and Cho Jang-hyeon (2017). Second, it was confirmed that regional identity had a statistically positive (+) effect on resident satisfaction. These research results are also in line with the research results of Raagmaa (2002), Kim Seon-ah, Lee Eui-jin, and Hong Kyung-gu (2018). Third, it was confirmed that the resident perception of the urban regeneration project had a statistically positive (+) effect on resident satisfaction. These results are in line with the results of previous studies by Fitzgerald & Durant (1980), Joo Ik-hyeon, Koo Bon-mi, and Chae Cheol-gyun (2020).
