Revisitando a Mobilidade Intergeracional de Educação no Brasil

Education across the life-course and hypertension in adults from Southern Brazil

“…A study in Sweden observed a reduction in the odds of SAH for individuals with upward social mobility 12 , but another study (in the United States) did not find any association 11 . The results found here may reflect a persistence in SEP in Brazil, especially at social extremes 16 , and highlights the importance of considering country context when examining SEP mobility and health outcomes. Mobility in other measures of SEP are also important to examine.…”

“…However, little is known about the relationship between SEP and SAH in low-middle income countries, such as Brazil, particularly how changes in SEP over the life-course might affect SAH. Understanding these relationships is particularly important given persistent social inequalities in these countries 16 and the potential implications for public health interventions.…”

The likelihood of black and brown Brazilians remaining at low levels of education is greater than for whites 13,15 . According to various authors, this "racial" inequality in education reflects interpersonal discrimination and structural racism, part of the country's historical trajectory based on slavery and the power relations established during Brazil's colonial period 16 .…”

“…Analyses of intergenerational mobility suggest a tendency for individuals to remain in certain socioeconomic strata, especially at the low and high social extremes 12 . Besides, even in the presence of upward mobility, the "leap" by underprivileged individuals in relation to their parents proves insufficient to guarantee material equality with the better-off portion of the population 13 .…”

“…Interaction between discrimination and IEM was tested in stratified analysis by skin color/race, creating a new variable resulting from the multiplication of interpersonal discrimination (dichotomous) and IEM (polytomous). These interaction models considered the role of discrimination on racial inequalities in education 13 and their connection to blood pressure in adults 6,7 . The test hypothesis took into account that the effect of IEM could be intensified in situations of interpersonal discrimination, especially for black and brown Brazilians.…”
