This paper considers methodological issues raised by investigations into the relationship between health beliefs with respect to cancer and ethnicity. Because what people will proffer in response to a question about their health beliefs and ethnicity depends amongst other things, on the time and place of asking, and the identity, purpose and methodological approach of the person posing the question, we have focused exclusively on British material; also the practical issues discussed are largely relevant to Britain only.
本文探讨了关于癌症健康信念与种族之间关系的调查所引发的方法学问题。因为人们在回答有关其健康信念和种族的问题时所提供的内容,除其他因素外,还取决于提问的时间和地点,以及提问者的身份、目的和方法,所以我们仅专注于英国的资料;此外,所讨论的实际问题在很大程度上仅与英国相关。
