最寄り鉄道駅の利便性と居住者の歩数との関係

Abstract

We analyzed the association between convenience of railway station and resident’s step count using multilevel model. The results revealed the average numbers of trains and restaurants around the stations were positively correlated with the step count, while the time to Yokohama Station was negatively correlated. These convenience indices of railway stations partially explained the step counts’ variation between stations. In addition, the association between station convenience and step count was stronger in areas closer to stations. Therefore, station convenience should be considered in walking promotion measures.
