In this study we used photovoice to better understand transitional housing residents' perceptions of housing and health at the individual and community levels. Discussion sessions were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed through a modified constant comparison approach. The results demonstrate that participants had a rich understanding of the complex connections between housing, neighborhood, and health that were intimately tied to the spatial concentration of incarceration in their community. The men identified social and physical sources of stress that manifest in a community-wide sense of hopelessness; however, utilization of community social networks and social capital provide opportunities for addressing these issues locally.
在这项研究中，我们使用影像叙事法来更好地理解过渡性住房居民在个人和社区层面上对住房和健康的看法。讨论环节被记录、转录，并通过修改后的恒定性比较方法进行了分析。结果表明，参与者对住房、社区和健康之间复杂联系有着深刻的理解，这些联系与社区中监禁的空间集中密切相关。这些男性确定了社会和身体压力的来源，这些压力表现为社区范围内的绝望感；然而，利用社区社会网络和社会资本为解决这些问题提供了机会。
