Measures from the Social Context Module of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System were used on 2 population-based health surveys in Hawaii to explicate the role of the nonmedical and social determinants of health; these measures were also compared with conventional socioeconomic status (SES) variables. Results showed that the self-reported SES vulnerabilities of food and housing insecurity are both linked to demographic factors and physical and mental health status and significant when controlling for the conventional measures of SES. The social context module indicators should be increasingly used so results can inform appropriate interventions for vulnerable populations.
美国疾病控制与预防中心行为风险因素监测系统社会环境模块的测量方法,被用于夏威夷两项基于人群的健康调查,以阐明健康的非医学和社会决定因素的作用;这些测量方法还与传统社会经济地位(SES)变量进行了比较。结果表明,自我报告的食品和住房不安全方面的SES脆弱性,既与人口因素以及身心健康状况有关,且在控制传统SES测量指标时具有显著性。应更多地使用社会环境模块指标,以便研究结果能为针对弱势群体的适当干预措施提供依据。
