Ethnographic field stations are not a substitute for traditional ethnography, because they provide an "unnatural" setting for research interaction and observation to take place. However, they do provide perhaps the optimal setting for qualitative and quantitative methodologies to be undertaken in a single research effort. In this sense, they are critically important for advancing our knowledge about drug abusers and their behaviors.
民族志田野工作站并非传统民族志的替代品，因为它们为研究互动和观察提供了一个“非自然”的环境。然而，它们确实为在单一研究工作中采用定性和定量方法提供了或许最为理想的环境。从这个意义上说，它们对于增进我们对药物滥用者及其行为的了解至关重要。
