Résumé :	[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS IeX8uR0x. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. The authors examine the research evidence on the effect of residential segregation on health, identify research gaps, and propose new research directions. Four recommendations are made on the basis of a review of the sociological and social epidemiology literature on residential segregation : (1) develop multilevel research designs to examine the effects of individual, neighborhood, and metropolitan-area factors on health outcomes ; (2) continue examining the health effects of residential segregation among African Americans but also initiate studies examining segregation among Hispanics and Asians ; (3) consider racial/ethnic segregation along with income segregation and other metropolitan area factors such as poverty concentration and metropolitan governance fragmentation ; and (4) develop better conceptual frameworks of the pathways that may link various segregation dimensions to specific health outcomes.
