环境空气污染和社会经济地位（SEP）对健康的影响有据可查。最近的研究表明，SEP本身可能在与暴露于空气污染相关的疾病和死亡的流行病学中发挥作用。这些研究以及贫穷和工人阶级社区往往更容易受到空气污染的证据，激发了科学家、政策制定者和公众对空气污染对健康影响的不同分布的讨论。科学和公共政策将受益于更多的研究，这些研究将空气污染和社会流行病学的理论和实践结合起来，以更好地了解这一问题。在这篇文章中，我们的目标是促进这样的研究，向读者介绍空气污染和社会流行病学领域的方法和概念方法;通过提出关于空气污染和社会经济因素如何相互作用影响健康的理论和假设，借鉴世界各地进行的研究;通过讨论研究设计和分析中的方法学问题，以确定暴露于环境空气污染的健康影响是否被SEP修改;并提出具体步骤，以促进这一领域的知识，填补信息空白，并与受影响社区合作，应用研究成果改善公共卫生。
The effects of both ambient air pollution and socioeconomic position (SEP) on health are well documented. A limited number of recent studies suggest that SEP may itself play a role in the epidemiology of disease and death associated with exposure to air pollution. Together with evidence that poor and working-class communities are often more exposed to air pollution, these studies have stimulated discussion among scientists, policy makers, and the public about the differential distribution of the health impacts from air pollution. Science and public policy would benefit from additional research that integrates the theory and practice from both air pollution and social epidemiologies to gain a better understanding of this issue. In this article we aim to promote such research by introducing readers to methodologic and conceptual approaches in the fields of air pollution and social epidemiology; by proposing theories and hypotheses about how air pollution and socioeconomic factors may interact to influence health, drawing on studies conducted worldwide; by discussing methodologic issues in the design and analysis of studies to determine whether health effects of exposure to ambient air pollution are modified by SEP; and by proposing specific steps that will advance knowledge in this field, fill information gaps, and apply research results to improve public health in collaboration with affected communities.
