Social inequalities and health among children aged 10–11 in The Netherlands: Causes and consequences

Reduction but not elimination: health inequalities among urban, migrant, and rural children in China—the moderating effect of the fathers’ education level

“…Female children had poorer health than male children; the more siblings there are, the weaker the children’s health status; and children with good family economic conditions had higher level of health than those with poor family economic conditions. These findings are consistent with the conclusions of previous studies [8, 45], demonstrating that the children’s health level varies depending on gender, age, number of siblings, and family economic condition.…”

Factors associated with perceived health among 12-year-old school children. Relevance of physical exercise and sense of coherence

“…perceived health, identified only individuals in the most favourable situations in comparison with the rest. This might have led to a weakening of the social gradient associated with father's occupation as has been known from several previous studies [1,4].…”

What causes health inequality? A systematic review on the relative importance of social causation and health selection

“…[24][25][26]28,29,[34][35][36] Two studies give preference to the health selection explanation, 33,37 and seven studies attribute equal weight to social causation and health selection. [30][31][32][38][39][40][41] For household income (and related measures), we found three studies that thought social causation more important, 23,28,42 one study which gave preference to health selection, 43 and three studies which attributed equal importance. 27,32,41 For each of these three classical dimensions of SES, the majority of studies judged social causation to be more important than health selection, although several studies reached a conclusion of equal importance.…”
