A combination of quantitative and qualitative research in two neighborhoods in Groningen supports this statement. Aspects that are involved in this relationship between the perception of urban green spaces and health are access, personal and social value, quality of green space and reason of use. Of these aspects the personal value and the quality of the green are the most important. Although these aspects are more important than others, planners should focus on all the aspects in designing urban green space. The design of urban green spaces should focus on the needs of the users. date: 2014 date_type: published thesis_type: master degree_programme: SP tutors_name: Zhang, Y. keywords_local: perception keywords_local: urban green spaces keywords_local: health language_iso: en titleorder: healthy view on the perception of urban green spaces. dbi: 54184542d8399 imported_item: yes date_of_import: 2020-04-22 imported_from: http://scripties.frw.eldoc.ub.rug.nl/root/ma/Plan/2014/rlzwinkels/ import_source_file: theses-frw-20200422132454-54184542d8399.xml date_issued: 2014-01-01 citation: Zwinkels, R.L.
