Abstract

To discuss internal relationship between plant configuration and characteristics of visitors in garden environment, the correlation was analyzed by using SPSS program and choosing such factors as canopy density, species richness, visitors sex proportion and ratio of visitors' age, and so on , based on investigation of 30 sample plots in HEBIN garden of SHAOGUAN city. The results showed as followed: there was significant negative correlation between canopy density, species richness and male visitors, but significant positive correlation between canopy density, species richness and female visitors, which displayed that males were less likely to act in high canopy density and high species richness, females were opposite. There was significant negative correlation between canopy density, species richness and the middle age proportion, but no any relationship between canopy density, species richness and the other age proportions. There was significant correlation between the young ratio and the children ratio, which showed the two groups in the activities of the region into a match.
