摘要：Numerous researchers had evidence on the significant roles of parks and green open spaces in addressing the cultural, social, environmental needs of its users, as well as its contribution to the living quality. Indeed, it is noticeable that parks functions had a strong connection with the theory of human needs particularly in offering the aesthetics pleasures, recreational opportunities, being close and contact with nature. Nevertheless, a successful parks criterion is not merely intended to provide sufficient amount of green spaces per se, but rather to focus on the park quality to serve its people. The Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) method is one the effective means applied in this paper, to develop the assessment tools for Malaysian neighbourhood parks. The SEM findings indicates it is a good fitting model with (χ²/df =2.158; RMSEA = .071, CFI = .893; AGFI= .873; GFI = .899, p = .000) and variance extracted (VE) was 37%. Hence, it is hoped that the quality neighbourhood park (QNP) assessment tools produced based on the model result will assist planners and landscape architects to produce high quality of Malaysia Neighbourhood Parks in future
