review of the Causal Model of the Relationship between Urban Agriculture Social Mechanisms and Social Interactions in Residential Complexes (A Case Study: Residential Complex of shiraz Rezvan )
Urban agriculture has become a growing trend worldwide. Although there is a continuing debate regarding the benefits of urban agriculture for urban residents, there has been no comprehensive study on the role of urban agriculture social mechanisms that can encourage and facilitate social interaction. Therefore, this study was intended to evaluate the relationship between urban agriculture social mechanisms and social interactions in residential complexes based on a causal model. The survey was conducted with 265 participants residing in Rezvan Residential Complex in Shiraz, Iran. The results of the data analysis showed that the model could be fitted well with the data of this study, such that social participation, social capital, security and social health could well predict social interactions directly. The model also confirmed the indirect impact of each of these dimensions, with the mediation of urban agriculture and other dimensions, on social interactions. Overall, these results indicate that not only each of these variables can predict social interactions alone, they can also predict social interactions as one of the constructive dimensions of urban agriculture.
