目的：利用健康的社会决定因素作为研究的理论基础，作者检查了北卡罗莱纳州社区转型资助项目农贸市场倡议对农贸市场的认识和使用以及水果和蔬菜消费的变化的影响。方法：在农贸市场季节，研究人员对北卡罗来纳州3个农村县的居民进行了随机数字拨号电话调查，以检查农贸市场意识、购物和水果和蔬菜消费的变化。他们使用t检验、卡方检验和倾向得分匹配检验了1年内的变化。结果：1个县农贸市场购物和果蔬消费增加，1个县农贸市场购物和果蔬消费减少。结论与启示：农贸市场举措的影响可能受到特定县的社会经济背景的影响。
Objective: Using the Social Determinants of Health as the study's theoretical underpinning, the authors examined the impact of the North Carolina Community Transformation Grant Project farmers' market initiatives on changes in awareness and use of farmers' markets, and fruit and vegetable consumption.Methods: During the farmers' market season, the researchers conducted a random digit-dial telephone survey among residents in 3 rural North Carolina counties to examine changes in farmers' market awareness, shopping, and fruit and vegetable consumption. They examined change over 1 year using t tests, chi-square tests, and propensity score matching.Results: In 1 county there were increases in farmers' market shopping and fruit and vegetable consumption, and in 1 county there were decreases in farmers' market shopping and fruit and vegetable consumption.Conclusions and Implications: The impact of farmers' market initiatives may be affected by county-specific socioeconomic contexts.
