本文对住房在儿童发展中的作用，包括身体健康；社会、情感和行为结果；以及学校教育、成就和经济成就的最新研究进行了批判性的回顾。我们侧重于住房政策的六个核心特征，这些特征通常受到最多研究的关注：(1)实物住房质量；(2)拥挤；(3)住宅流动性；(4)自置居所；(5)补贴住房；(6)负担不起。最有力的证据证明了环境毒素/危害和拥挤与儿童健康之间的有害联系，以及住房流动与儿童短期的学业、社会和情感问题之间的联系。关于资助住房的调查结果好坏参半，住房拥有率和可负担性与儿童的结果没有联系。需要在方法上更加严谨，在概念上更加注重研究。尽管存在根本性的知识差距，但这些结果对侧重于住房所有权、补贴和土地使用监管的住房政策具有影响。(C)2010年由爱思唯尔有限公司出版。
This article presents a critical review of recent research on the role of housing in children's development, including physical health; social, emotional, and behavioral outcomes; and schooling, achievement, and economic attainment. We focus on six features of housing that are central to housing policy and have generally received the most research attention: (1) physical housing quality; (2) crowding; (3) residential mobility; (4) homeownership; (5) subsidized housing; and (6) unaffordability. The strongest evidence is provided for the deleterious associations between environmental toxins/hazards and crowding with children's health, and for residential mobility with children's short-term academic, social and emotional problems. The findings on assisted housing are mixed, and homeownership and affordability are not linked to children's outcomes. More methodologically rigorous and conceptually focused research is needed. Despite fundamental knowledge gaps, the results have implications for housing policies focused on homeownership, subsidies and land use regulations. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
