“…Our study showed a negative relationship between depression and socioeconomic status. This result is consistent with the results of Christiani et al on women in major cities of Indonesia (23) and Payab et al in Rey, the south of Tehran, Iran (10).…”

“…Comparing our results with those from other published studies, an inverse correlation was found between the education level of the women or their spouses and depression status. This result was in accordance with other studies (17,21,23). The inverse relationship between education level and depression can be interpreted as the ability of educated people in adapting to an uncertain life.…”

Background: Socioeconomic factors and dietary intake have suggested being effective in the appearance of depression. A limited number of studies have addressed such factors in Iranian communities. In this study, we investigated the relationship between depression, dietary intake, and socioeconomic factors among married women within a developing community in the south of Iran. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 480 married women in 2014. A multi-stage cluster sampling method was used for sampling. The Beck depression inventory was used to assess the level of depression. 24-hour dietary intake information was collected using a self-administered diet history questionnaire. Demographic information and socioeconomic status were also collected using a predesigned questionnaire. The data were analyzed using the Pearson correlation coefficient, t test, chi-square test, analysis of variance, and linear and logistic regression models. Results: The average age of subjects in this study was 38.6 (SD = 6.7) years. The prevalence of depression in married women was found to be 42.7%. A significant direct correlation was observed between the depression score and age, body mass index, the number of children, and family size. The daily intake of most macronutrients was inversely related to the depression level. Moreover, logistic regression analysis revealed that married women with lower education levels (odds ratio (OR) = 3.39, 95%CI: 1.83-5.43), unemployed spouses (OR = 5.72, 95%CI: 2.21-9.86), and low socioeconomic statuses (OR = 3.74, 95%CI: 2.33-5.07) were more likely to be depressed. Conclusions: The findings of this study suggest that compared to other subpopulations in Iran and foreign communities, married women in Bandar Abbas show higher rates of depressive symptoms. Education, employment, and economic status are among the most important predictors of depression in married women. Therefore, it is essential to consider these factors in future studies.

“…Dengan populasi total 252.812.245 pada tahun 2015, lebih dari setengah populasi pria dewasa adalah perokok (66%), sedangkan 36,2% pria muda berusia 13-15 tahun secara aktif mengkonsumsi tembakau. Meskipun masih dalam jumlah kecil, data menunjukkan pertumbuhan substansial perokok di kalangan remaja perempuan (4,5%) dan perempuan dewasa (6,7%) (Health, 2013;WHO, 2011aWHO, , 2011b dimana 3,7% dari kelompok usia ini tinggal di kota metropolitan atau perkotaan, seperti Jakarta (Christiani, Byles, Tavener, & Dugdale, 2015). Mayoritas perokok ini berasal dari rumah tangga miskin dan berpenghasilan rendah dengan pengeluaran untuk konsumsi tembakau melebihi kebutuhan primer lainnya ( De Beyer, Lovelace, & Yürekli, 2001; de Beyer & Yurekli, 2000;Giovino et al, 2012).…”

Penelitian terakhir menemukan bahwa perokok perempuan dewasa muda terutama mereka dengan kondisi ekonomi rendah di daerah perkotaan berkontribusi terhadap disparitas depresi di negara ini (Christiani et al, 2015).…”

The number of smokers among women in Indonesia is increasing every year, even though smokers are predominantly male. In order to educate the public about the negative impacts of tobacco consumption, the government has produced anti-smoking Public Service Advertisements (PSAs) aired on television. The information gap about smoking hazards is due to lack of anti-smoking messages which is unable to compete with the extensive and creative pro-smoking messages in many media platforms. The way people use media for information-seeking, such as messages about smoking, dictates how they look for the messages and helps to understand how they encounter messages the most. By interviewing 39 women in Banda Aceh and Jakarta, this study presents women’s opinion about television and the media preference for searching and gaining information about smoking. The findings show that participants of the study prefer to obtain information about smoking through the media—online social media than through television, such as Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Line, WhatsApp, and non-media like friends and their doctor’s advice. Given the substantial cost of television health campaigns, the study findings can provide input on alternative media in communicating about the harms of smoking.

“…It is therefore necessary to study the relative contribution of each determinant to inequality in child mortality, to tailor policies to a specific pattern of inequality. 5 Decomposition methods have been used to understand factors that contribute to socioeconomic inequalities in both health outcomes 18,19 and health interventions [20][21][22] , and whether public policies enacted to counteract existing inequalities are achieving their purpose. 23 By quantitatively documenting the contribution of each determinant, this method can provide insights into potential interventions to reduce health disparities and ensure equity in the long run.…”

Abstract. Previous studies of inequality in health and mortality have largely focused on income-based inequality. Maternal education plays an important role in determining access to water and sanitation, and inequalities in child mortality arising due to differential access, especially in low-and middle-income countries such as Peru. This article aims to explain education-related inequalities in child mortality in Peru using a regression-based decomposition of the concentration index of child mortality. The analysis combines a concentration index created along a cumulative distribution of the Demographic and Health Surveys sample ranked according to maternal education, and decomposition measures the contribution of water and sanitation to educational inequalities in child mortality. We observed a large education-related inequality in child mortality and access to water and sanitation. There is a need for programs and policies in child health to focus on ensuring equity and to consider the educational stratification of the population to target the most disadvantaged segments of the population.
