Health inequalities among Slovak adolescents over time

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The present study intends to contribute to the field of socioeconomic inequalities in adolescence. Firstly, we evaluated changes in self-rated health (SRH) in a cohort of 15-year-old adolescents who were followed up to the age of 19; we then evaluated the socioeconomic differences in changes of SRH in the same cohort. We identified not only deterioration but also improvement and stability in SRH. Socioeconomic differences in the SRH of 15-year-old males were shallow and remained stable up to age 19, while the traditional gradient of socioeconomic differences (low socioeconomic status - poor health outcomes) in SRH among females became more distinct from age 15 to 19. Thirdly, we assessed the differences in socioeconomic inequalities in SRH among cohorts of Slovak adolescents in 1998 and in 2006. Traditional socioeconomic gradients in SRH were found in both males and females in 1998 and 2006, although these were more visible for females. We found a trend of decreasing indexes of dissimi
