“…Therefore, to tackle the potential endogeneity issue of both physical activity and health status, we apply recursive multivariate probit model that involves the use of instrumental variables estimation. The instruments should not be directly related to healthcare utilization, except for their link to physical activity and overall health status [ 100 , 101 ]. For health status, the instrumental variables are represented by the education level of respondents’ parents [ 102 ] and their attitude towards the future [ 102 ], while for physical activity, the membership to an association or a sport club was considered as a proxy for the distance to physical fitness and sports facilities [ 101 ].…”

Background A growing need and focus on preventing and controlling the diseases and promoting a healthier lifestyle is more evident at global, regional, and national levels. In this respect, it is well-known the positive association between physical activity and population’s health, but also its negative association with the demand of healthcare, which could lead to lower spending on healthcare systems. In France, a lack of physical activity, a high prevalence of sedentary behaviours, and a continuous deterioration of these behaviours are observed since 2006. Therefore, promoting and increasing physical activities could contribute to major societal issues. Within this context, the study aims to analyse how the use of different healthcare services are related to physical activity in a nationally representative sample of French population. Methods The data used was retrieved from the second wave of the EHIS-ESPS 2014. The relationship between physical activity and healthcare utilization, controlled by a set of socioeconomic, demographic, and health behaviour factors, was explored both at the level of the entire population and separately for two age groups (less than 65 years, 65 years and older), employing probit and recursive multivariate probit models. Results Our findings underline that the relation between healthcare utilization and physical activity depends on the type of healthcare services and age group. In this respect, only among adult respondents, we observe a significant negative association between physical activity and prescribed medicines consumption and day hospitalization, while preventive services use is positively related to physical activity. Common to both age groups, the positive association of physical activity with general physician services and non-prescribed medicines reveal that moderately and highly active adults and elders may be more health conscious and therefore may seek referrals to generalist and other prevention measures more frequently than their inactive counterparts. This explanation is also sustained by the negative association between physical activity and overnight hospitalization or home healthcare services. Conclusions This study highlights the double role of physical activity on health as preventive measure and treatment and thus support the implementation of public health policies aimed at increasing the level of physical activity in French population.

“…The impact of health status on the use of medicine is quite obvious, but the reverse causality between the two variables is based on the idea that medicine use may determine the health status of individuals due to the side effects of the consumption of medical drugs. To tackle the potential endogeneity issue of health status, we employed a recursive bivariate probit model that involves the use of instrumental variables estimation (Maddala,1983;Ancelot et al,2018). Instruments are explanatory variables that have an impact on health status but do not directly explain the probability of using medication, meaning that the effect of instrumental variables on medicines use is captured indirectly via health status.…”

For Romania's population, the highest share of total health services use corresponds to the use of pharmaceutical services, for which the state covers less than 60% of health expenditure. This leads people to use their financial resources to cover their health needs, which creates further disparities in the use of medicines. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to study the impact of socio-economic, health and health behaviour factors on the use of prescribed and self-prescribed medicines using probit models. This analysis is based on data from the European Health Interview Survey 2014 (EHIS 2014) and is explored at the whole population level and separately for two age groups (less than 65 years, 65 years and over). Overall, the empirical findings highlight that the determinants of pharmaceutical consumption differ by type of medicines and age group.

In a sample of 79 districts of the Slovak Republic for the period 1997 -2019, we examine the connection between the unemployment rate and the crude divorce rate. Our findings reveal a negative and statistically significant relationship, which suggests a procyclical nature in terms of the economic cycle. The estimated coefficients are relatively consistent even after the addition of control variables considering socio -economic factors or fixed effects. The results of the regression analysis show that an increase in the unemployment rate by one percentage point is accompanied by a decrease in the crude divorce rate by an average of 0.024 units. These findings support the assumptions of the theory of the high costs of divorce that spouses must bear. In a period of high unemployment, it is more acceptable for spouses to stay married than to bear the high costs associated with legal proceedings or the loss of part of the joint savings. The analysis of possible non-linear relationships between the unemployment rate and the crude divorce rate also showed a negative relationship. Quantile regression also points to the U-shaped relationship between variables and supports the opportunity theory. ii
