DANS STÜDYOLARININ MEKÂN BÜYÜKLÜĞÜ VE ŞEKLİNİN KULLANICILARIN ALGISAL DEĞERLENDİRMELERİ ÜZERİNDEKİ ETKİLERİ
Bu çalışmada, aynı özelliklerdeki iki farklı oransal büyüklüğe sahip dans stüdyosunun çevresel
faktörlerinin katılımcıların algısal değerlendirmeleri üzerindeki etkilerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Dans eğitimi alan kullanıcıların algısal değerlendirmeleri arasındaki farklılaşmayı tespit edebilmek
için Ankara Latino Dans Stüdyoları araştırma ortamı olarak kullanılmıştır. Yapılan gerçek mekân
araştırmasıyla, mekân büyüklüğü ve şeklinin kullanıcıların algısal değerlendirmeleri üzerindeki
etkileri tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Bu amaçla, gün içinde dans stüdyosu mekânlarına farklı sayıda
dans grupları alınmış ve yaklaşık 10 dakikalık bir bilgilendirmenin ardından kullanıcılardan araştırma
anketini cevaplamaları istenmiştir. Bu maksatla oluşturulan araştırma anketine dans stüdyosunu
kullanan 100 kişi katılmış olup, elde edilen sonuçlar SPSS programıyla değerlendirilmiştir.
Kullanıcıların dans stüdyolarının fiziksel çevre faktörlerini değerlendirmeleri arasındaki farklılıklar
istatistiki yöntemlerle analiz edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak, katılımcıların farklı mekân büyüklüğüne ve
şekline sahip dans stüdyolarının çevresel faktörlerini değerlendirmeleri arasında istatistiksel açıdan
önemli farklılıklar olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Buna göre, iki eşit alanlı kare şeklinde stüdyonun (1x1 = 64m2),
iki katı hacimsel büyüklüğe sahip dikdörtgen şeklindeki dans stüdyosuna (1x2 = 128m2)
göre daha olumlu yönde algılandığı görülmektedir. Ayrıca, erkekler ve 18-29 yaşındaki kullanıcılar
dans stüdyosunun çevresel faktörlerini kadınlara ve 30-45 yaşındaki kullanıcılara göre daha olumlu
algılayarak değerlendirdiği belirlenmiştir. Bu sonuçlardan, mekânların oransal büyüklüğünün ve
şekillerindeki farklılıkların kullanıcıların bu mekânları tercih etme nedenlerini ve mekânda kalma
sürelerini daha olumlu yönde etkileyebileceği anlaşılmaktadır
THE EFFECTS OF THE SPACE SIZE AND SHAPE OF DANCE STUDIOS ON THE PERCEPTUAL EVALUATION OF THE USERS
In this study, it was aimed to determine the effects of environmental factors of two different proportional
dance studios with the same characteristics on the perceptual evaluations of the participants. Ankara
Latino Dance Studios was used as a research environment in order to determine the differentiation
between perceptual evaluations of dance education users. With the real space research, the effects of
space size and shape on the perceptual evaluation of the users were tried to be determined. For this
purpose, different number of dance groups were taken to dance studio venues during the day and after
approximately 10 minutes of information, users were asked to answer the research questionnaire.
For this purpose, 100 people who used the dance studio participated in the research questionnaire
created and the results obtained were evaluated with the SPSS program. The differences between
the users’ evaluation of the physical environment factors of the dance studios were analyzed by
statistical methods. As a result, it was determined that there are statistically significant differences
between the participants’ evaluation of the environmental factors of dance studios with different
spatial sizes and shapes. Accordingly, it is seen that a square-shaped studio with two equal areas (1x1 = 64m2)
is perceived more positively than a rectangular dance studio with twice the volumetric
size (1x2 = 128m2). In addition, men and 18-29-year-olds were found to evaluate the dance studio’s
environmental factors more positively than women and 30-45-year-old users. According to these
results, it is understood that the differences in the proportional size and shape of the spaces may
affect the reasons why the users / consumers prefer these spaces and their stay in the space more
positively
