Quelles sont les raisons de la méconnaissance des travaux sur les inégalités sociales de santé ? Comment l’épidémiologie sociale, discipline à la frontière des sciences biomédicales et des sciences humaines et sociales, reconfigure-t-elle nos représentations du corps, des rapports sociaux, de genre, des causes de maladies ? Ce livre propose une introduction aux fondements historiques et épistémologiques de cette discipline et, ce faisant, apporte une vue synoptique des principales questions et problématiques que soulève la mesure des inégalités sociales de santé. Il s’adresse aux chercheurs en humanités médicales, aux professionnels de santé et, plus généralement, à l’ensemble des citoyens qui souhaitent s’informer sur l’étude des déterminants sociaux de la santé, ses enjeux et les perspectives qu’elle ouvre sur les plans scientifique et politique.

“…In epidemiology, there is a long tradition of research on disease rates before and after migration from one country to another, as well as rural–urban migration within a country. Generally, the intent has been to estimate the degree to which cultural and social environmental processes (e.g., change in diet) might affect general and mental health, as well as successful adaptation, maladaptation, longevity, and case fatality rates ( Syme, 1971 ). For example, many epidemiological studies with immigrant populations have examined the role of diet, lifestyle, and culture as etiological determinants of heart disease ( Holmboe-Ottesen & Wandel, 2012 ; Yano et al, 1979 ).…”

BackgroundChronically escalated parent–child conflict has been observed to elicit maladaptive behavior and reduced psychological well-being in children and youth. In this epidemiological study, we sought to estimate the occurrence of escalated parent–child conflict for United States (US) adolescent subgroups defined by (a) ethnic self-identification, and (b) nativity (US-born versus foreign-born).MethodsUS study populations of 12-to-17-year-olds were sampled, recruited, and assessed for the National Surveys on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), 2002–2013 (n = 111, 129). Analysis-weighted contingency table analyses contrasted US-born versus foreign-born who self-identified as: (a) Hispanic, (b) non-Hispanic African-American, (c) non-Hispanic Asian, and (c) non-Hispanic White.ResultsFrequently escalated parent–child conflict was most prevalent among US-born non-Hispanic White adolescents, from 18% at age 12 (95% CI [17.6%, 18.9%]) to 29% at age 17 (95% CI [28.3%, 29.7%]), followed by US-born Hispanic and non-Hispanic Asian children. Estimated prevalence proportions were markedly lower for African-American children, from 8% at age 12 (95% CI [6.8, 8.5]) to 16% at age 17 (95% CI [14.3, 16.7]). Broad and sometimes overlapping CI indicate that larger sample sizes are needed for complete evaluation of an apparent excess occurrence of frequent parent-child conflict among US-born versus foreign-born. Nonetheless, in the larger subgroups, the US-born show a clear excess occurrence of frequent parent-child conflict. For example, US-born Mexican children have 1.7 times higher odds of experiencing frequent parent-child conflict than foreign-born Mexican children (OR = 1.7, 95% CI [1.5, 2.0], p-value < 0.001).DiscussionThe main discovery from this multi-ethnic sample investigation is a rank-ordering of parent-child conflict prevalence estimates from high (non-Hispanic White) to low (non-Hispanic African-American). The pattern also suggests a possibly generalizable excess associated with US-born sub-groups. The epidemiological estimates presented here merit attention in future cross-cultural research focused on parent-child conflict.
