多年来,居住环境一直被认为是影响人类健康的主要环境之一。生活和住房条件是影响居民健康的许多因素的基础。然而,到目前为止,还没有共同商定的“健康住房”的定义,在住房条件如何影响健康的知识方面仍然存在重大差距。流行病学调查结果表明,住房条件和健康影响之间存在密切联系。本文探讨了住房条件的相关性,作为影响心理健康,睡眠质量,室内空气,家庭安全,可访问性,肥胖,霉菌生长,湿热条件和能源消耗,犯罪的感知和住宅质量的关键因素。
For many years, the housing environment has been acknowledged as one of the main settings that affect human health. Living and housing conditions are the basis of many factors influencing residential health. Still, to date there is no commonly agreed upon definition of 'healthy housing', and there are still major gaps in the knowledge on how housing conditions may affect health. Epidemiological findings suggest strong associations between housing conditions and health effects. This paper explores the relevance of housing conditions as a key factor influencing mental health, sleep quality, indoor air, home safety, accessibility, obesity, mould growth, hygrothermal conditions and energy consumption, perception of crime, and residential quality.
