Assessment of cultural ecosystem service values in mountainous urban parks based on sex differences

<b> </b>Urban parks play a crucial role in providing Cultural Ecosystem Services (CES) to city residents. However, research on gender differences in mountainous urban parks remains limited. This study aims to clarify sex-based differences in CES perceptions and landscape preferences in mountainous urban parks and explore the relationship between CES and landscape elements under gender-differentiated perceptions. Data were collected and analyzed using visitor-employed photography, the SolVES model, questionnaires, and SPSS. Results showed that males preferred slopes, steps, garden facilities, and recreational facilities, while females favored overlooks, ponds, squares, and platforms. Based on the findings, the study recommends enhancing mountainous-specific CES and integrating gender-inclined landscapes to break gender stereotypes in cultural landscape concepts. Ultimately, these efforts aim to position parks as integral to urban sustainable development, enhancing overall resident well-being.

城市公园为城市居民提供文化生态系统服务（Cultural Ecosystem Services，CES），其作用至关重要。然而，目前针对山地城市公园中性别差异的相关研究仍较为匮乏。本研究旨在厘清山地城市公园内，居民在文化生态系统服务感知与景观偏好上的性别差异，并探究在不同性别感知视角下，文化生态系统服务与景观要素之间的关联机制。本研究采用游客自主摄影法、SolVES模型、问卷调查法以及SPSS软件开展数据采集与分析工作。研究结果表明：男性偏好坡地、台阶、园林设施与休闲设施，而女性则更青睐观景眺望点、池塘、广场与平台。基于上述研究结果，本研究建议强化山地特色文化生态系统服务，并融入契合性别偏好的景观设计，以破除文化景观认知中的性别刻板印象。最终，这些举措旨在将城市公园定位为城市可持续发展的有机组成部分，全面提升居民的整体福祉。
