Unequal Health, Health Care Needs And Ses Over The Life Course: The Role Of Health Insurance In A National Health System, Emilie Renahy, Amélie Quesnel-Vallée Oct 2009

Unequal Health, Health Care Needs And Ses Over The Life Course: The Role Of Health Insurance In A National Health System, Emilie Renahy, Amélie Quesnel-Vallée

Health over the Life Course Conference (2009)

The association between health and income has been extensively described in the literature. However, accounts of the time dynamics of this relationship are scant, as are studies examining the modifying effect of public policies on this relationship, measured here through health insurance (HI). We used the National Population Health Survey, a cohort study of the general Canadian population spanning almost 10 years, from 1996 to 2004. We considered middle-aged participants (25-56, n=6116) by groups of 10 years.

Structural equation models were employed to assess the impact of HI on the pathway between socioeconomic status, health needs and health status. Regarding …


Socioeconomic History And Preventable Disease: A Comparative Analysis Of Fundamental Cause Theory, Andrea Wilson, Amir Erfani Oct 2009

Socioeconomic History And Preventable Disease: A Comparative Analysis Of Fundamental Cause Theory, Andrea Wilson, Amir Erfani

Health over the Life Course Conference (2009)

Fundamental cause theory suggests that because persons of higher socioeconomic status have a range of resources that benefit health, they hold an advantage in warding off whatever particular threats to health exist at a given time. Therefore as risk factors that stratify health are eliminated, socioeconomic disparities in health remain. Accordingly, SES should be more strongly associated with diseases that are more preventable than with less preventable diseases, and SES should have a stronger relationship to health in countries where high economic inequality and no universal health insurance leads to greater competition for resources. Using longitudinal data from Canada (National …

Threshold And Memory: A New Theoretical Model For Athlete Cam Use, Ben Koh Oct 2009

Threshold And Memory: A New Theoretical Model For Athlete Cam Use, Ben Koh

Medical Conference Papers

Introduction: The role of theory in research cannot be over emphasised. Present literature on athlete complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) use poses two problems: in the few studies on CAM use that have utilised theory, the use of theory has been inconsistent or lack validation; in athlete motivational studies, theoretical models focused on the athlete and the sport and not on health-seeking. Many theories exist in the literature to help explain health-seeking behaviour, but the bulk of studies that employ theory focused on the general nonathlete population and mainly applied in the setting of conventional medicine use. Difficulties in using …
