Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 9Gendered Sense of Safety and Coping Strategies in Public Places: a Study in Atatürk Meydanı of Izmir(Emerald Group Publishing, 2022) Şenol, FatmaPurpose: A threatened sense of safety in public spaces is a problem for liveable communities. For better public policies, this study investigates multi-dimensional and multi-scalar aspects of gendered perceived safety and strategies by women and men in daily public spaces. Design/methodology/approach: A face-to-face survey with 40 men and 50 women in a public space (Izmir, Turkey) is deployed. Descriptive statistics and regression analysis compare participants' perceptions of and strategies for safety across the city, neighbourhood and the study site. Findings: Their experienced-based familiarities in public places increase women's perceived safety. As safety strategies, different place-based and gendered-preconditions appear for women and men going “outside” especially “alone” (i.e. unaccompanied). Reaffirming female vulnerability in public places, gendered preconditions include individuals' attributes. Of place-based preconditions, crowd and police are significant mechanisms for safety but emphasized differently by women and men. Housewives' female companionship in the study site develops a class- and gender-based claim for a safe place away from their underserved neighbourhood. Practical implications: Gendered- and place preconditions for women's safety can inform design policies about surveillance and permeability of public spaces. Lack of data about class-based differences about perceived safety is a limitation. Originality/value: Among a few, it takes perceived safety as performative acts with learned strategies across (rather than momentary perceptions in) socio-spatial spaces and provides a research framework that considers such acts with individual and spatial dimensions across multiple socio-spatial scales.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 14Gis-Based Mappings of Park Accessibility at Multiple Spatial Scales: a Research Framework With the Case of Izmir (turkey)(Routledge, 2021) Şenol, Fatma; Atay Kaya, İlgiWith a concern of social needs in the redistribution of benefits of parks, recent research assesses park accessibility but usually at one spatial scale (e.g. city, neighbourhood, or park). As a case in Izmir (Turkey), this study explores how to develop research with a multi-scalar focus on park accessibility. It proposes a framework with the research stages deploying GIS-based tools. The first stage identifies park-rich, park-moderate and park-poor neighbourhoods. The second and third stages evolve in three park-rich neighbourhoods and at 112 local parks. All stages deal with preparing various socio-spatial data from online sources and field observations and assess the data according to a list of themes about accessibility and diversity. The results highlight that regardless of their high park coverages per person, park-rich neighbourhoods have multiple blocks, buildings, and parks with the features hindering park accessibility for some local groups with different walking capacities and needs. The GIS-based mappings of these features can provide decision-making tools about local parks and neighbourhood interventions.Article Citation - WoS: 16Citation - Scopus: 20Application of Space Syntax in Neighbourhood Park Research: an Investigation of Multiple Socio-Spatial Attributes of Park Use(Routledge, 2023) Can Traunmüller, Işın; İnce Keller, İrem; Şenol, FatmaThis case study investigates the actual park use as determined by the socio-spatial attributes of neighbourhoods and parks. As a contribution to the research about park accessibility, it integrates the space syntax analysis with the observation-based fieldwork data about the attributes of neighbourhoods, parks, and park users in 42 parks of 2 adjacent neighbourhoods in Izmir City (Turkey). With its syntactic measures (connectivity, integration, and choice), the study analysis describes the street configuration around these neighbourhood parks. Also, 3 multiple regression analyses are deployed to examine how the syntactic data along with the other neighbourhood and park attributes affect the number of users observed in 42 parks. The study contributes to the research about space syntax tools for analysing the organisational logic of parks in the neighbourhoods while also integrating other socio-spatial attributes of parks.Doctoral Thesis Differences in the Uses and Needs of Neighborhood Parks: a Case Study About Female Park Users in Balçova (izmir, Turkey)(İzmir Institute of Technology, 2016) Kaştaş Uzun, İpek; Şenol, Fatma; Şenol, FatmaNeighborhood parks as important public open green spaces are supposed to provide certain opportunities of improving physical and mental health, socializing with others and developing public expression and identity in neighborhoods. However, on the contrary to ideal definitions of public open green spaces as open and accessible to all groups of the society, in real life this “access” is not guaranteed for all, mainly due to unequal distribution of resources. Especially certain groups of the society experience urban inequalities due to unequal distribution of resources. Women is one those groups who experience urban inequalities. The aim of this thesis is to produce a comprehensive research method that adopts a need-based approach to understand underlying causes of different user groups’ park needs and uses by looking at the different experiences of women in neighborhood parks based on their park perceptions as an example. Therefore, I conducted a case study in the neighborhood parks in Balçova, İzmir, Turkey with "mixed method" as a combination of both qualitative and quantitative data collection and analysis methods. I realized detailed observations, questionnaires, structured and un-structured interviews with Balçova residents in neighborhood parks and community houses. As a result, this study contributes to the scientific literature with the produced comprehensive research method, park improvement suggestions that consider the differences in the needs and uses of neighborhood parks and a raised awareness regarding the park needs of women, especially the ones who are bound to neighborhood space with limited social and leisure activity opportunities.Master Thesis How Out-Of Activity Areas and Surrounding Land Uses Affect Students' Feelings About Coming School?: Cases in İzmir(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2023) Özkan, Tuba Nur; Şenol, FatmaAraştırma 10-15 yaşındaki ortaokul öğrencilerinin okula gelme ile ilgili olumlu duygularını etkileyen faktörleri incelemektedir. Okul bahçesi gibi derslik dışı aktivite alanları ve park, diğer kentsel yeşil alanlar gibi okul çevresindeki arazi kullanımlarının öğrencilerin fiziksel ve zihinsel sağlıklarına etkisi kanıtlanmıştır. Fakat bu alanların ve buna ek olarak farklı derslik dışı aktivite alanları ve okul çevresindeki arazi kullanımlarının öğrencilerin okula gelmeye dair olumlu duygularına olan etkisine dair bir araştırmaya rastlanmamıştır. Bu tezde okula gelmeye dair olumlu duyguların önemli bir parçası olan okula bağlılık, akademik başarı, okul iklimi ve okula düzenli katılımı etkileyen etkenler üzerinden yola çıkarak okula gelmeye dair olumlu duygulara etki eden faktörleri saptamıştır. Bu faktörleri sosyal ve fiziksel faktörler olarak ele almıştır. Sosyal faktörler bireysel, ebeveyn, ev ve ev halkının karakteristik özellikleri olarak gruplandırılmıştır. Fiziksel özellikler ise derslik dışı aktivite alanları ve okul çevresindeki arazi kullanımları olarak ele alınmıştır. Aynı zamanda çocukların bu alanlara dair algıları ve bu alanlardan beklentileri de incelenmiştir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, öğrencilerin okula gelmeye ilişkin olumlu duyguları ile okul içi sınıf dışındaki etkinlik alanlarının ve okul çevresindeki arazi kullanımları çeşitliliği arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemektir. Bu tez Konak ve Karabağlar / İzmir'de dört mahallenin dört ortaokulunda 10-15 yaş ortaöğretim öğrencileri hakkında geliştirilmiştir. Alan gözlemleri ve kullanıcı anketleri sunmaktadır. Sonuç olarak, okulların yer seçimi ve derslik dışı aktivite alanlarının fiziksel tasarımına dair öneri ve stratejiler geliştirmektedir.Master Thesis Everyday Spatial Tactics of Women Living in Deprived Neighborhoods: a Case With Refugee and Non-Refugee Women in İzmir(01. Izmir Institute of Technology, 2022) Aygün, Gamzenur; Şenol, FatmaThis study aims to examine the differing and intersecting daily life experiences of Syrian refugee women and non-refugee women living in deprived neighborhoods as well as their spatial tactics in urban public spaces that develop through these experiences. In deprived neighborhoods, low-income groups live, and ethnic diversity is high. The residents' daily routines become common due to spatial proximity and interaction. In addition to these commonalities, the research questions how the urban daily life tactics of women living in deprived neighborhoods differ through their refugee identities. The case study of the research, developed with an ethnographic approach, is based on the Sakarya and Yeni neighborhoods in İzmir. In these neighborhoods, refugee population density is relatively high. Research data were gathered through 30 in-depth interviews with refugee and non-refugee women living in the study site, local expert interviews as mukhtars and associations, and field observations. This study reveals the social and physical deprivation characteristics of the neighborhood and explains women’s perceptions of the neighborhood through their daily experiences. Deprivation experiences and perceptions of women in the neighborhood affect their use of urban public spaces. This study discusses the spatial tactics of refugee and non-refugee women in urban public spaces as part of their daily routines.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Recent Nation Gardens and Historical Development of Public Green Spaces in Turkey;(Istanbul University Press, 2020) Uzun,I.K.; Şenol,F.; Uzun, İpek Kaştaş; Şenol, FatmaFocusing on contemporary Turkey's "nation gardens" and the state and governmental policies to build them, this study investigated the development processes and design features of these public green spaces with respect to those from past eras of Turkey (extending to Ottoman and pre-Ottoman history) and the development of public green spaces as the state's symbolic and spatial tools. The study relied on secondary sources about public green spaces from past eras of Turkey and also on the review of online news about "nation gardens" initiated after President Erdoǧan's announcement in May 2018. Our findings suggested that public green spaces in Turkey have played an important role in displaying the state's power nationally and internationally as well as to transfer the state's ideologies to people and thus, to build new identities of 'citizens.' Interestingly, in sharing these intentions of past policies for public green spaces, the recent introduction of nation gardens differs from those in the 19th and 20th century. Without any emphasis on modernization goals in the western-style, recent official talks described nation gardens as a way to raise Turkey and the government's reputation both nationally and internationally, while also referring to past eras but with other characteristics as the source of "traditions" extending to today. © 2020 The authors.Article Anaokullarının fiziksel ve sosyal erişilebilirlik ölçümü: Konak mahalleleri (İzmir) örneği(Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi, 2021) Sayın, Zeynep Melike; Altındaş, Gamze; Şenol, FatmaWhile preschool education contributes to children being more successful individuals with high quality of life in the continuation of their education life, it also emerges as an important factor in women's (mother’s) participation in the labor force. In this respect, preschool education is considered a social policy tool in our country and in the world. This study examines the accessibility of preschools to the neighborhoods in Konak District of İzmir Province in terms of physical and social accessibility at two geographical levels (district and neighborhood) and by using various tools of Geographic Information Systems. In the first stage, the Konak District scale, physical accessibility was evaluated with the geographical location and opportunities of preschools, age groups of the neighborhoods, educational-based features, and purchasing power, the general topographic slope of the area, and service areas of the preschools by network analysis. In the second stage of the study, the social and physical accessibility of preschools is evaluated in terms of educational and spatial opportunities offered by schools, monthly fees, cost of accessing schools by public transportation, and travel time. The study was concluded with evaluations and suggestions for the location of preschools in terms of physical and social accessibility.Doctoral Thesis Gis Besed Spatial Equity Mapping and Park Provision at Neighborhood Scale: Izmir Case(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2019) Özkan, Sevim Pelin; Şenol, FatmaDecision making and implementation processes of allocation of neighborhood parks are significant in urban planning. Neighborhood parks contribute to the continuity of biodiversity and improvement of individual/communal physical, social and mental health. Such green public areas in the city are planned under the influence of multi-factors that do not always prioritize these significances and accessibility of these areas for various social groups. As in the case of Izmir City (Turkey), ultimately, there are spatial inequity among neighborhoods in terms of the existence of public green areas. The areas with limited size of neighborhood parks have often high percentages of children, elderly and low-income—that is the social groups that need to get access in walking distance and benefit from these areas. This study conceptualize these areas as ‘park poor’ and the potential user groups as need groups. This study argues that it is possible to develop accessible new green areas in already developed “park-poor” urban areas. Using tools of Geographic Information Systems (GISs) and relying on need-based equity approach, this study presents a GIS based procedure to assess the accessibility to existing park areas and to allocate new neighborhood parks at the neighborhood level in “park-poor” areas of Izmir (Turkey). It contributes to the discussions about the spatial equity mapping and accessibility to areas as part of environmental justice issues. Also, arguing that urban green areas are public resources, this study emphasizes that urban planning policies must re-plan neighborhood parks based on the need-based equity that favors accessibility of neighborhood parks primarily by children, elderly, women and low income groups. Moreover, this study differs greatly from earlier studies about its spatial scale of investigation and use of data. This study suggests park provision procedure in park-poor neighborhoods. To develop these at the neighborhood-level, a set of spatial-statistical analyzes are developed using GISs.Master Thesis Children's Active Commuting To Schools in Different Neighbourhoods: Design of Streets as Child Friendy Environments(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2019) Abatay, Gülce; Şenol, FatmaThe study examines the factors that affect the 8-11 years old primary school students' commute to school by using active transportation modes (i.e., walking and bicycling). Active commuting to school is promoted for children as the main opportunity for children’s physical activity for their physical and even mental health. However, in recent years there has been a significant decrease in the number of children who engage in physical activity in many parts of the world including Turkey. As a result of rapid urbanization, decreasing number of open spaces in urban areas and also increasing level of car ownership are seen as the main reasons for children’s passive lifestyles. One of the easiest and most practical ways to adopt physical activity in children's daily life is to enable children to commute to their school by walking or bicycling. On the other hand, although there are increasing number of studies abroad, there is an important literature gap about the factors affecting children’s active commuting to school in Turkey. Besides multiple social factors (such as parents' concerns about the safety of their children) children's perceptions about physical characteristics of the built environment (such as land use and vehicular traffic) are some of the significant factors shaping travel mode of children to school. The aim of this study is to identify the social and physical factors that affect mode choice of children's commuting to their school while examining children's and their parents' experiences and expectations about the built environment. Developing as a study about 8-11 years old primary school students in two schools of two neighbourhoods in Bornova/Izmir, this thesis deploys fields observations and majorly user surveys with these children and their parents about their experiences of commuting to school. Finally, it develops recommendations and strategies for the physical design of the streets for children to use active transportation opportunities.
