The substandard nature of the housing in which most farmworkers live has detrimental effects on their health, as well as on their children's health and development. However, little research has directly documented associations between farmworker housing and health; existing research is not always comparable due to differences in design and measurement. Comparative data can help determine actual causal links between housing characteristics and farmworker health and help to evaluate the efficacy of current housing policy. The goal of this paper is to provide guidelines promoting comparable research on farmworker housing and the association of this housing with health. This paper reviews general concepts relevant to measuring farmworker housing and health, issues that should be considered in designing farmworker housing and health research, data collection methods, and measures. It concludes with recommendations for a research agenda on farmworker housing and health.
大多数农场工人居住的住房条件不合格，这对他们自己的健康以及子女的健康和发育都有不利影响。然而，很少有研究直接记录农场工人住房与健康之间的关联；由于设计和测量方法的差异，现有研究往往缺乏可比性。比较数据有助于确定住房特征与农场工人健康之间的实际因果关系，并有助于评估当前住房政策的成效。本文的目的是提供指导方针，以促进对农场工人住房及其与健康的关联进行可比研究。本文回顾了与测量农场工人住房和健康相关的一般概念、设计农场工人住房与健康研究时应考虑的问题、数据收集方法和测量指标。最后给出了关于农场工人住房与健康研究议程的建议。
