The Hamilton Neighbourhoods Study aimed to measure the short-term impact of a neighbourhood-based intervention known as the City of Hamilton's Neighbourhood Action Strategy on health and neighbourhood outcomes. A quasi-experimental study with 881 intervention participants across six targeted neighbourhoods and 173 control participants was conducted to investigate changes in self-rated health and mental health from baseline to follow-up. There was evidence of small improvements in mental health in two neighbourhoods, but there was no change in self-rated health. Place-based interventions aimed at high poverty neighbourhoods may have only modest impacts on health in the short-term.
汉密尔顿社区研究旨在衡量一项基于社区的干预措施（即汉密尔顿市社区行动计划）对健康和社区结果的短期影响。该研究采用准实验设计，在六个目标社区的 881 名干预参与者和 173 名对照参与者中进行，以调查从基线到随访期间自我报告的健康和心理健康状况的变化。有证据表明，两个社区的心理健康状况有较小的改善，但自我报告的健康状况没有变化。针对高贫困社区的基于场所的干预措施可能在短期内对健康的影响有限。
