Abstract
The purpose of this study was to analyze the importance and satisfaction of resources in the mouth of Nakdong River. A Pearson's chi-square test was performed in SPSS 24.0 for statistical analysis and the result of the study was summarized by three points. First, the results of importance analysis on resources in Nakdong estuary found that the importance of ecology resources was the highest with 27.1%, followed by landscape resources (18.5%), waterside leisure resources (6.5%), complex cultural resources (5.4%), and historic and cultural resources (3.3%). The probability values (p-value) of each group had shown significant differences depending on gender, age, and the location of the survey. For instance, women respondents reported a higher preference to ecology resources and complex cultural resources such as museums than men respondents as much as two times and three times, respectively. Meanwhile, men respondents showed a higher preference to waterside leisure resources in three times as much as women respondents. As for the analysis by age, the respondents in their 20s and 30s recorded a higher value than those in other age groups, and people in their 30s reported a higher preference to waterside leisure resources than those in different age groups by three times. Lastly, no significant differences were found in the preference analysis by occupation (p>.05). With regard to the results of satisfaction analysis, the average level of satisfaction on landscape resources was 6.01, and that of ecology resources and complex cultural resource were 5.65 and 5.15, respectively. Also, significant differences were found between landscape and ecology resources in the satisfaction analysis by age, landscape resources by age, ecology resources by region, and between landscape resources and ecology resources by occupation. The p-value of complex cultural resources was p=0.012, although the satisfaction level of landscape resources and ecology resources were reported to have no significant differences by age. As for the level of satisfaction in landscape resources, respondents in their 40s and 50s showed a high level of satisfaction. However, those in their 20s showed a relatively low level of satisfaction in the same category. The survey respondents living in Busan and South Gyeongsang Province and those living outside the regions revealed no significant differences in terms of satisfaction in landscape resources and complex cultural resources. However, the two same groups were found to show significant differences in the satisfaction analysis on ecology resources. In the satisfaction analysis of landscape resources and ecology resources by occupation, significant differences were found among college students, government employees, ordinary citizens, and expert groups. However, they showed no significant differences in the level of satisfaction to complex cultural resources. Third, the results of importance-satisfaction analysis on Nakdong estuary found that the average levels of satisfaction to landscape resources for each group of respondents who considered landscape, ecology, and cultural resources as important was 6.19, 6.08, and 5.67, respectively. Their levels of satisfaction on ecology resources were 5.95, 5.57, and 5.41 for each. Its correlation to the importance was insignificant. However, it was confirmed that the correlation to the level of satisfaction on complex cultural resources had a significant difference (p=0.025). In addition, the results of the analysis on 15 detailed items that was carried out with the aim to improving values and vitalizing resources in the mouth of Nakdong River found that respondents considered that the vitalization of eco-tourism (49.5%) and restoration of reed marsh (47.5%) were important. The results of detailed analysis revealed respondents' high awareness on the need of enhancing values on ecology resources. Also, improving infrastructure nearby the mouth, creating cycling routes, walkways, waterside leisure facilities, and others were considered as the requirements for the vitalization of Nakdong estuary.
본 연구에서는 낙동강 하구 자원들의 중요도와 만족도 분석을 위해 통계분석 SPSS 24.0 Pearson chi-square을 사용하였으며, 연구 결과를 3가지로 요약하였다. 첫째, 낙동강 하구 자원의 중요도 분석에서 생태자원이 27.1%로 가장 높았으며, 경관자원 18.5%, 수변레저자원 6.5%, 복합문화자원 5.4%, 역사문화자원 3.3% 순으로 분석되었다. 설문대상 그룹별 중요도의 유의확률은 성별과 연령별, 조사장소별 조사에 유의한 차이를 나타냈다. 여성은 남성보다 생태자원의 선호가 2배 높았으며, 미술관 등 복합 문화자원에서 3배 이상 높은 것으로 나타난 반면, 수변레저 자원에서는 남성이 2배 높은 값을 보였다. 연령별 분석에서 수변레저 자원 선호는 20~30대에서 타 연령대보다 높은 값을 나타냈으며, 복합문화자원은 30대에서 타 연령대보다 약 3배 이상 높은 값을 보였다. 직업에 따른 선호는 유의한 차이가 없는 것으로 분석되었다(p>.05). 둘째, 만족도 분석에서는 경관 자원의 만족도 평균은 6.01, 생태자원은 5.65이며, 문화자원이 5.15로 분석되었다. 성별에 따른 경관자원과 생태자원, 연령에 따른 경관자원, 지역에 따른 생태자원, 직업에 따른 경관자원과 생태자원의 만족도는 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 성별에 따른 경관자원과 생태자원의 만족도는 유의한 차이가 없는 것으로 분석되었으나, 문화자원에서는 유의확률(p=0.012)을 보였다. 연령에 따른 경관자원의 만족도 조사에서 40~50대에서 경관자원의 만족이 높은 반면, 20대에서는 상대적으로 낮게 평가되었다. 부산 경남 거주자와 그 외의 거주자들의 경관자원과 문화자원의 만족도는 유의한 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났으나, 생태자원의 만족도 분석에서는 두 집단의 유의한 차이를 확인할 수 있었다. 직업에 따른 경관자원과 생태자원의 만족도 조사에서 대학생, 공무원, 일반인, 전문가 집단의 만족도는 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났으나, 문화자원의 만족도는 유의한 차이가 없는 것으로 분석되었다. 셋째, 낙동강 하구 자원의 중요도와 만족도를 분석한 결과, 경관, 생태, 문화 자원이 중요하다고 응답한 각각의 집단의 경관자원 만족도 평균은 각각 6.19, 6.08, 5.67로 분석되었으며, 생태자원의 만족도는 5.95, 5.57, 5.41로 분석되었다. 중요도와의 상관관계는 유의하지 않은 수준으로 분석되었으나, 문화자원에 대한 만족도 상관관계는 유의한 차이(p=0.025)가 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한, 하구 자원의 가치 향상과 활성화를 위해 15개 세부 항목을 분석한 결과, 생태관광 활성화(49.5%)와 갈대습지 복원(47.5%)이 우선적이었다. 생태자원의 가치 향상에 대한 인식이 돋보였으며, 하구 주변의 인프라 개선과 자전거길, 산책로, 수변레저 등이 강 하구 활성화의 요건으로 분석되었다.
