초록

The promotion of civic happiness is an essential factor for increasing the vitality and sustainable development of the whole city, and the effect of the urban cultural environment on the happiness of citizens was studied. Based on the theory of relational goods and happiness, bottom-up spillover theory, this study aims to verify the value and effectiveness of the urban cultural environment on the happiness of citizens. The data from the 2022 Seoul Survey were used to empirically analyze the effects of the urban cultural environment and the happiness of citizens. Based on 39,340 data from 25 districts of Seoul, the analysis was conducted with a structural equation through the statistical program SPSS 26.0 and Smart PLS 3.0 for verification of the research model. In the analysis results, it was found that the satisfaction of the urban cultural environment had a positive effect on both the sense of belonging and happiness of the community, and the sense of belonging to the community also showed a positive effect on happiness. In addition, the partial mediating effect of the sense of belonging to the community was confirmed. The analysis result of the positive effect of cultural environment satisfaction on the sense of belonging and happiness in the community can suggest the necessity of building a high-quality cultural environment for urban qualitative growth. Furthermore, related studies can provide a theoretical basis for strengthening the theoretical explanatory power of the impact of the cultural environment and expanding the scope of research on the elements of the cultural environment.
