The effect of neighbourhood unemployment on health-risk behaviours in elderly differs between Slovak and Dutch cities
Original language description
Background: Health-risk behaviours (HRB) increase the risk of disability and chronic diseases at an older age. This study aimed to compare Slovakia and the Netherlands regarding differences in the prevalence of HRB by neighbourhood and individual deprivation and to determine whether area differences could be explained by the socioeconomic position (SEP) of the residents. Methods: We obtained data on non-institutionalized residents aged }= 65 years from the EU-FP7: EURO-URHIS 2 project from Slovak (N = 665, response rate 44.0%) and Dutch cities (N= 795, response rate 50.2%). HRB concerned daily smoking, binge drinking, physical activity, consumption of fruits and vegetables and body mass index. Area deprivation was measured by the neighbourhood unemployment rate. Individual SEP was measured by education and household income with financial strain. We used multilevel logistic regression. Results: In Slovakia, no HRB was associated with either neighbourhood unemployment or individual SEP.
