目标。阿拉米达县研究的证据表明，居民区对死亡风险有独立的影响。本研究考察了贫困地区居住地对体力活动变化的影响(n=1737)。数据来自以人口为基础的纵向队列。采用多元线性回归分析。在1965年至1974年期间，经年龄和性别调整的体力活动变化得分比生活在贫困地区的人低0.67个单位(P=0.0001)。与个人收入、教育程度、吸烟状况、体重指数和饮酒无关，贫困地区居住地仍然与体力活动变化相关。这些结果进一步支持了地点影响健康行为的假说。
Objectives. Evidence from the Alameda County Study indicated that residential area has an independent effect on mortality risk. The current research examined the effect of poverty area residence on change in physical activity (n = 1737).Methods. Data were from a longitudinal population-based cohort. Multiple linear regression analyses were used.Results. Age- and sex-adjusted change scores between 1965 and 1974 for physical activity were 0.67 units lower for people living in poverty areas (P =.0001). Independent of individual income, education, smoking status, body mass index, and alcohol consumption, poverty area residence remained associated with physical activity change.Conclusion. These results further support the hypothesis that place affects health behaviors.
