摘要

健康信息的开发和传播是减少健康差异的重要组成部分。在六个 Dene 社区开展的一项人体生物监测研究的参与者(n = 87)对一项有关污染物的健康信息传播调查做出了回应。该调查包括与乡村食品和污染物有关的健康信息意识和风险认知问题。绝大多数参与者都表示食用乡村食品(99%),并听说过乡村食品具有有益的营养成分(90%)。70%的受访者听说过或看到过有关鱼类汞含量高的信息,60%的受访者对他们食用的乡村食品的安全或质量表示担忧。与未听过相关信息的受访者相比,那些表示在听到有关鱼类和汞的信息后减少了吃鱼数量的受访者头发中的汞浓度较低(p = 0.04)。然而,对于那些表示在听到信息后改变了捕鱼地点、选择了更小的鱼或吃了更少的肉食性鱼类的受访者来说,头发中的汞含量并没有差异。结果表明,除了意识之外,还需要研究自我报告行为改变的原因。这项研究的结论可以为制定有关土著居民污染物的信息和风险管理决策提供参考。

Awareness and perceptions of contaminants in the Dehcho and sahtú regions of the Northwest Territories.

The development and dissemination of health messaging is a critical component of reducing health disparities. Participants (n = 87) from a human biomonitoring study in six Dene communities responded to a survey about health communication regarding contaminants. The survey included questions on awareness of health messages and risk perceptions related to country foods and contaminants. The vast majority of participants reported eating country foods (99%) and heard that country foods had beneficial nutrients (90%). Seventy per cent of respondents had heard or seen messages about fish with high levels of mercury, and 60% had concerns about the safety or quality of country foods they consumed. Respondents who reported decreasing the number of fish they ate since hearing the messages about fish and mercury had lower (p = 0.04) mercury concentration in hair, compared to those who had not heard the messages. However, no differences in hair mercury were observed for respondents who reported to have changed their fishing location, chosen smaller fish or eaten less predatory fish since hearing the messages. Results indicate the need to examine reasons for self-reported behaviour changes, in addition to awareness. The conclusions of this study can inform the development of messaging and risk management decisions about contaminants within Indigenous populations.

期刊介绍: The International Journal of Circumpolar Health is published by Taylor & Francis on behalf of the Circumpolar Health Research Network [CircHNet]. The journal follows the tradition initiated by its predecessor, Arctic Medical Research. The journal specializes in circumpolar health. It provides a forum for many disciplines, including the biomedical sciences, social sciences, and humanities as they relate to human health in high latitude environments. The journal has a particular interest in the health of indigenous peoples. It is a vehicle for dissemination and exchange of knowledge among researchers, policy makers, practitioners, and those they serve. International Journal of Circumpolar Health welcomes Original Research Articles, Review Articles, Short Communications, Book Reviews, Dissertation Summaries, History and Biography, Clinical Case Reports, Public Health Practice, Conference and Workshop Reports, and Letters to the Editor.
