The 1980 Census data provide a valuable resource for health services research on Hispanics. Hispanics are the fastest growing minority group in the United States and yet there is a paucity of large-scale empirical research on their health care and access needs. This paper describes how the census can assist in: 1) estimating the overall health care needs of this group, 2) identifying target groups within the Hispanic population who may have special health care problems (e.g., children, elderly, pregnant women, etc.); and 3) using other data sources to improve the quality of studies carried out on Hispanics. It also discusses problems in using the census for Hispanic health services research and some strategies for dealing with these problems.
1980年的人口普查数据为针对西班牙裔的卫生服务研究提供了宝贵资源。西班牙裔是美国增长最快的少数族裔群体，但针对其医疗保健及就医需求的大规模实证研究却很匮乏。本文阐述了人口普查如何有助于：1）估计该群体的总体医疗保健需求；2）确定西班牙裔人口中可能存在特殊医疗保健问题的目标群体（如儿童、老年人、孕妇等）；以及3）利用其他数据源提高针对西班牙裔开展的研究的质量。本文还讨论了将人口普查用于西班牙裔卫生服务研究时存在的问题以及应对这些问题的一些策略。
