We believe that reframing the conversation to creating a culture around health rather than focusing on discrete actions or activities will capture national consciousness and enable us to make new progress as a nation. Thus, in 2014, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) announced a new vision to help build a "Culture of Health" to enable everyone in our diverse society to lead healthier lives now and for generations to come. In supporting the development of this supplement of Health Education & Behavior, RWJF sought to contribute to a better understanding of the ways in which policy, environmental, and financial approaches can contribute to such a Culture of Health. However, while this supplement issue of Health Education & Behavior stands as a testament to the fact that a broad evidence base, rather than a single approach to health improvement, is necessary to have an impact on social change, more empirical evidence is needed on structural approaches if we are to be successful in understanding and improving health outcomes for individuals, families, communities, states, and nations.
我们认为，将对话重新构建为围绕健康营造一种文化，而非专注于离散的行动或活动，将引起国民关注，并使我们作为一个国家取得新的进展。因此，2014年，罗伯特·伍德·约翰逊基金会（RWJF）宣布了一项新愿景，以帮助建立一种“健康文化”，使我们多元社会中的每个人现在及子孙后代都能过上更健康的生活。在支持《健康教育与行为》这一增刊的发展过程中，RWJF试图促进对政策、环境和财政方法有助于形成这种健康文化的方式有更好的理解。然而，虽然《健康教育与行为》的这一增刊证明了这样一个事实，即要对社会变革产生影响，广泛的证据基础而非单一的健康改善方法是必要的，但如果我们要成功理解并改善个人、家庭、社区、州和国家的健康结果，就需要更多关于结构性方法的实证证据。
