The role of rural guide plans in physical-spatial improvement of conditions of rural settlements Case study: Villages of Jolgeh Chah Hashem District in Dalgan County

Journal Title: Arid Regions Geographic Studies - Year 2022, Vol 13, Issue 48

Abstract

The rural guide plan as a document of the physical development of the village examines the existing situation of the villages, as well as determining how to use the land for multiple usages and how to deploy it in the future. Considering that the villages of the country have been formed due to special cultural, social, economic, and geographical conditions over the centuries, the present study tries to examine the role of a rural guide plan in the physical development of rural areas according to the mentioned conditions in Dalgan County. The statistical population of the current study is the villages of Jolgeh Chah Hashem District, where the rural guide plan was implemented. In addition, based on Cochran's formula, 312 people from rural households were selected as a sample population, who were questioned and measured by a simple random sampling method. Then, the extracted data from the questionnaire were analyzed by using correlation analysis, Friedman and Kruskal-Wallis test, in SPSS software. The results of the correlation analysis demonstrate that there is a logical and meaningful relationship between the implementation of the rural guide plan and the improvement of the physical conditions in the studied villages up to the confidence level of 99%. Furthermore, Cramer’s V correlation indicates that the implementation of a rural guide plan has stabilized the population of the studied villages of Dalgan County. In addition, the results of the Kruskal-Wallis test indicate a significant difference of 99% in some indicators among the studied villages after the implementation of the rural guide plan.Â
