本文介绍了一种新的地理分析理论，社会空间知识网络，用于检查和理解健康知识的空间方面（即，健康信念和知识与社区中的其他支持相一致的地方）。我们提出了一个概述的社会空间知识网络的理论和一个例子，它是如何被用来指导一个正在进行的民族志研究的健康信念，知识和知识网络在农村社区的非裔美国人，拉丁美洲人和欧洲裔美国人的高风险，但没有诊断为2型糖尿病。我们认为，了解健康信念和知识以及人们如何获得健康信息的地理方法可以服务于其他社区和社区卫生工作者，以改善不同地方环境中的慢性病结果。© 2002 Wiley Periodicals，Inc. Res Nurs Health 25：159-170，2002
This article introduces a new theory of geographical analysis, sociospatial knowledge networks, for examining and understanding the spatial aspects of health knowledge (i.e., exactly where health beliefs and knowledge coincide with other support in the community). We present an overview of the theory of sociospatial knowledge networks and an example of how it is being used to guide an ongoing ethnographic study of health beliefs, knowledge, and knowledge networks in a rural community of African Americans, Latinos, and European Americans at high risk for, but not diagnosed with, type 2 diabetes mellitus. We believe that the geographical approach to understanding health beliefs and knowledge and how people acquire health information presented here is one that could serve other communities and community health practitioners working to improve chronic disease outcomes in diverse local environments. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
