| description | The design of urban spaces, the existence of worn-out and abandoned textures, etc. can exacerbate deviations in general and the tendency towards drug addiction in particular. To this end, the present study is to investigate the effect of urban spaces on the tendency towards drug addiction of citizens living in District 3 of Isfahan. The present study is applied, and the snowball sampling technique was used for selecting participants. A researcher-made questionnaire was developed for collecting data. Moreover, seven indices (worn-out texture, abandoned buildings, incompatible jobs, parks and green spaces, disturbing businesses, streets, passages and alleys, historical texture and cultural heritage) were selected for assessment of the effect of urban spaces on the tendency towards drug-addiction. Employing the regression and structural equation model (SEM), which is a combination of structural and factor analysis models, as well as AMOS and SPSS software, it has been determined that green spaces and parks as well as their design and positioning have the highest role in the tendency towards addiction among citizens. In the regression analysis, 0.219 of the variances of the variable of the tendency to the drugs due to this variable. Exhausted textures that is more in this area than other areas plays an important role in the tendency to drug abuse and is an important factor that explains 0.203 of the variance of dependent variable. The results of regression analysis show that the variables affecting the research totally have been able to explain 0.631 of the variance of the dependent variable |
