This is causing functional instability and complexity in these areas, negatively impacting the quality of urban livability in the city-suburban. To address this issue, urban administrators and planners can develop a strategy to preserve the suburban Tehran metropolitan area and improve its livability. This article examines the challenges facing urban livability in Tehran's metropolitan area. It utilizes a descriptive-analytical and applied approach, and the findings are analyzed using PLS structural equations. The study incorporates 46 indicators and five key components. Research has shown a clear correlation between several factors and overall livability in Tehran's metropolitan area. The social-cultural, service infrastructure, and environmental-ecological indicators were found to have the most significant impact, while economic and management indicators had the least impact. Service infrastructure, social-cultural, and management indicators had the highest structural performance. In contrast, economic and environmental-ecological indicators had the lowest structural performance in terms of livability in the metropolitan area of Tehran. During the planning and managing of urban areas, it is crucial to identify any damages or issues that may affect the livability of city suburbs. This allows for appropriate solutions to be adopted, minimizing any adverse effects on the livability of these areas through control and preventive measures. The topic of urban-suburban livability is receiving much attention, and the comprehensive plan of Tehran reflects this by considering environmental requirements and the need for integrated protection and management of the surrounding area. Tehran occupies an area of approximately 5,900 square kilometers, with the city taking up around 5,300 square kilometers. Twenty-six cities are situated within the suburbs of Tehran, including Islamshahr, Andishe, Baghestan, Baqershahr, Bomhen, Pardis, Parand, Chahardangeh, Hassanabad, Robat Karim, Shahedshahr, Shahryar, Salehabad, Safadasht, Ferdowsia, Fasham, Qods, Kahrizak, Golestan, Lavasan, Nasimshahr, Nasirabad, Vahidiya, Parand, Sabashahr, Jajroud, and Shaemshak.   Methodology This research aims to apply scientific sources and documents to gather data through a questionnaire and expert opinions. The method used is both descriptive and analytical. The opinions were collected on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from very high to very low. One hundred people were selected as experts in this field to participate in the study. The statistical population included administrative and scientific experts and elites working in scientific societies and executive institutions. This questionnaire used five factors (social-cultural, economic, physical-infrastructural, urban, and administrative environment) and 46 indicators. The PLS structural equation was used to analyze the studied factors and indicators.   Results and discussion SmartPLS identified the performance significance map of the research variables in the pathology of the livability of the metropolitan area of Tehran. Table (6) and Figure (5) show the importance of the impacts of the entire structure and its functions for the pathology of the livability of the metropolitan area of Tehran. Accordingly, social-cultural indicators, with a score of 0.182, service-infrastructure indicators, with a score of 0.145 and environmental-ecological indicators, with a score of 0.1, had the highest total impacts, and economic indicators, with a score of 0.016 and management indicators with the score of 0.076 had the lowest total impacts in the pathology of the livability of the suburban of Tehran metropolis. The indicators for service infrastructure scored 40.061, making it the highest-performing aspect in the livability of the suburban area of Tehran metropolis. Social and cultural indicators followed closely with a score of 39.267, while management indicators scored 31.537. The economic indicators scored 24.981, and the environmental and ecological indicators scored 30.684, indicating the lowest performance in the area's livability.   Conclusion Through structural analysis, this study evaluated 46 indicators based on five criteria. The results indicated that social indicators had the highest total impacts with a score of 0.182, while economic indicators had the lowest total impacts with a score of 0.016. The study also found that service-infrastructure, social, and environmental-ecological indicators had the highest total impacts, while economic and management indicators had the lowest total impacts on the livability of suburban Tehran. Furthermore, service-infrastructural, social-cultural, and administrative indicators had the highest structural performance, scoring 40.061, 39.267, and 31.537, respectively. On the other hand, economic and environmental-ecological indicators had the lowest structural performance, scoring 24.981 and 30.684, respectively. Overall, the findings suggest that Tehran is facing numerous livability issues that require proper management and policy-making, consistent with the findings of previous studies by Ziyari et al. (2019) and Momeni et al. (2020). The study recommends investing in infrastructure and repairing and strengthening it to address current issues. It is also important to involve the community in urban development plans, improve the management of public services, enhance public transportation, adapt roads and sidewalks, increase public spaces, and develop better facilities for education, health, sports, and more. Additionally, we should improve the quality of existing city facilities.}, keywords = {Pathology,Urban Livability,Suburban,Tehran}, title_fa = {آسیب‌شناسی زیست پذیری شهری در حریم شهر تهران}, abstract_fa = {امروزه یکی از چالش‌های پیش روی مدیریت شهری در حریم شهر تهران، رشد شتابان سکونتگاه‌های پیرامونی و گستردگی فضایی-کالبدی در این محدوده‌هاست؛ به‌طوری‌که نوعی ناپایداری و پیچیدگی عملکردی را در این پهنه‌ها پدید آورده که تداوم این روند بر کیفیت زیست‌پذیری شهری در حریم تأثیرگذار است. بنابراین مدیران و برنامه ریزان شهری می‌توانند با آسیب‌شناسی زیست‌پذیری حریم کلان‌شهر تهران راهبردی جهت حفظ و صیانت از آن را ارائه نمایند. هدف از این مقاله آسیب‌شناسی زیست‌پذیری شهری در حریم کلان‌شهر تهران است. روش آن توصیفی -تحلیلی و از نوع کاربردی می‌باشد. برای تجزیه‌وتحلیل یافته‌ها از معادلات ساختاری PLS استفاده شد. در این پژوهش از 5 مؤلفه و 46 شاخص استفاده گردید. نتایج تحقیق نشان می‌دهد که کلیه شاخص‌ها با یکدیگر رابطه معناداری دارند. همچنین شاخص­های اجتماعی – فرهنگی، خدماتی – زیربنایی و محیطی – اکولوژیکی دارای بیشترین اثرات کل و شاخص­­های اقتصادی و مدیریتی دارای کمترین اثرات کل در آسیب‌شناسی زیست‌پذیری حریم کلان­شهر تهران را در برمی‌گیرند. همچنین شاخص­های خدماتی – زیربنایی اجتماعی – فرهنگی و مدیریتی دارای بیشترین عملکرد سازه و شاخص­های اقتصادی و محیطی – اکولوژیکی دارای کمترین عملکرد سازه در آسیب‌شناسی زیست‌پذیری حریم کلان­شهر تهران را دارا می­باشند.}, keywords_fa = {آسیب‌شناسی,زیست پذیری شهری,حریم,تهران}, url = {https://www.jpusd.ir/article_158712.html}, eprint = {https://www.jpusd.ir/article_158712_f50aae605bd5100de96ba8027fd603e6.pdf} }
