摘要：
With China entering the stage of high- quality development in an all- round way, high- level urban leisure supply becomes increasingly important. It is of great significance to systematically explore the relationship between urban leisure supply and residents' mental health to meet people's yearning for a better life. Therefore, this paper calculates the residents' Psychological Distress Index (PDI) from 2011 to 2019 based on Baidu index, applies spatial autocorrelation analysis to specify the spatial- temporal pattern of PDI, and uses stepwise regression analysis to further explore the relationship between PDI and leisure facilities with economic, population, and environmental factors controlled. The results show that: (1) In recent years, the PDI of the whole country and sub-regions has been rising continuously; (2) The more developed the region/city, the higher the PDI of residents. PDI presents a decreasing pattern of East-Central-Northeast-West. It also shows a significant spatial agglomeration, with high- high, low- high, high- low, and low- low agglomeration patterns from the coast to the inland; (3) PDI is significantly associated with the supply level of commercial leisure facilities at night (e.g., midnight snack, bar, and KTV), but not significantly associated with that in the daytime (e.g., shopping mall and cinema). The density of midnight snack, which reflects the degree of overtime work, is significantly positively associated with PDI. While as typical nightlife places, the densities of bars and KTV are significantly negatively associated with PDI. Besides, typical public leisure facilities (e.g., park) can effectively alleviate PDI. This study tentatively verifies the correlation between residents' PDI and different leisure facilities. Such effort offers a better understanding of urban health problem and how to cure it. It is important to improve the pedigree and enrich the supply of urban leisure facilities, so as to meet residents' demand for high- quality leisure life and promote their mental health. © 2024 Science Press.
