Estudio transversal realizado con 240 individuos em la región sudeste del Brasil. Se encontró que lãs mujeres adultas com un alto nivel de escolaridad y residência em los alrededores del Complejo son capaces de percibir mejor los riesgos para la salud y pocos beneficios resultantes del proceso de construcción de este desarrollo que el grupo de residentes em el área que está más distante de la zona industrial.
