Assessing Healthcare Access Among Overweight And Obese Individuals In Türkiye Using Latent Variable Modeling, Banu Beyaz Sipahi

Makara Journal of Health Research

This study investigates whether the early post-pandemic recovery period altered healthcare access patterns for individuals with excess weight.

Methods: Using nationally representative microdata from the 2014, 2016, 2019, and 2022 Turkish Health Surveys, we constructed a latent Healthcare Access Index based on six indicators of unmet care needs. Probit models were estimated to assess associations between BMI categories and healthcare access, controlling for socioeconomic and demographic factors. The 2022 wave serves as the early …

Physical Activity Intensity And Memory In Middle-Aged And Older Adults In China, Simi Tang, Yucheng Gao

Makara Journal of Health Research

Background: Memory decline represents a major challenge in aging populations, and physical activity may help preserve cognitive function. However, evidence on whether different activity intensities are associated with memory remains inconclusive.

Methods: Using five waves of the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (2011–2020), this study investigated the association between physical activity intensity and memory among middle-aged and older adults in China. Individual fixed-effects models were applied to control for unobserved time-invariant heterogeneity. The outcome was memory score, and the main predictors encompassed high-, moderate-, and low-intensity physical activities.

Results: Based on 52,135 person–wave observations from 21,423 …

Parameters Bookshelf – Online Book Reviews

Authors: David P. Auerswald, Philippe Lagassé, and Stephen M. Saideman

Reviewed by: Tom Vance, US Army Reserve (retired)

In Overseen or Overlooked?, David P. Auerswald, Philippe Lagassé, and Stephen M. Saideman challenge the conventional focus on executive control of the military by spotlighting the often-underestimated role of legislatures in democratic civil-military relations. Drawing on more than a dozen global case studies, the authors reveal how parliaments struggle with capacity and motivation to provide meaningful oversight. This groundbreaking work offers practical reforms and a compelling argument: true democratic accountability in defense requires more than generals and presidents—it demands empowered legislators.
