Abstract

"An attempt is made to isolate the ecological factor (as measured by an air quality index) among the causes of population change in SMSA's in the United States. Eight types of SMSA's are distinguished in terms of various combinations of a selected set of parameters. Growth is found to have been negligible in SMSA's with an unsatisfactory air quality index. It is noted, however, that the observed relationship applies mainly to the white population and that social and racial factors must also be considered in any analysis of SMSA population change."

摘要

人们试图在美国标准都市统计区（SMSA）人口变化的原因中分离出生态因素（以空气质量指数衡量）。根据一组选定参数的不同组合，区分出了八种类型的标准都市统计区。研究发现，空气质量指数不理想的标准都市统计区的人口增长微乎其微。然而，需要注意的是，所观察到的这种关系主要适用于白人人口，并且在对标准都市统计区人口变化的任何分析中，还必须考虑社会和种族因素。
