  • Patient enablement after a consultation with a general practitioner—Explaining variation between countries, practices and patients

    Open AccessElina Tolvanen, Peter P Groenewegen et al.ARTICLEHealth Expectations2020

    BACKGROUND: Patient enablement is a concept developed to measure quality in primary health care. The comparative analysis of patient enablement in an international context is lacking. OBJECTIVE: To explain variation in patient enablement between patients, general practitioners (GPs) and countries. To find independent variables associated with enablement. DESIGN: We constructed multi-level logistic regression models encompassing variables from pat…

  • Is suicide mortality associated with neighbourhood social fragmentation and deprivation? A Dutch register-based case-control study using individualised neighbourhoods

    Paulien Hagedoorn, Peter P Groenewegen et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…2020Citada por: 3Referencias: 37

    BACKGROUND: Neighbourhood social fragmentation and socioeconomic deprivation seem to be associated with suicide mortality. However, results are inconclusive, which might be because dynamics in the social context are not well-represented by administratively bounded neighbourhoods at baseline. We used individualised neighbourhoods to examine associations between suicide mortality, social fragmentation, and deprivation for the total population as we…

  • Citizens’ initiatives for care and welfare in the Netherlands

    Open AccessThijs Knaap, Thijs van der Knaap et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2019

    There are by now a considerable number of CI's in the area of care and welfare in the Netherlands. Apparently, citizens take collective initiatives to provide services that are not, or no longer, available to the local community. The initiatives are concentrated in certain parts of the country. However, our theoretical model to explain this geographical pattern is only partially confirmed

  • Kiezen voor een persoonsgebonden budget

    Anna Maria Marangos, Mirjam de Klerk et al.ARTICLEMens & Maatschappij2014

    Choosing a personal budget: do differences in local policy concerning personal budgets lead to access inequalities? Dutch municipal authorities have a statutory duty to offer people who apply for support (by way of the Social Support Act) a choice between receiving support in kind or in the form of a personal budget, but are free to set their own policy regarding who is offered a personal budget and how attractive the personal budget option is. T…

  • Chronic Disease Management Programmes

    Open AccessMieke Rijken, Nienke Bekkema et al.ARTICLEHealth Expectations2014

    Background Inspired by American examples, several European countries are now developing disease management programmes (DMPs) to improve the quality of care for patients with chronic diseases. Recently, questions have been raised whether the disease management approach is appropriate to respond to patient‐defined needs. Objective In this article we consider the responsiveness of current European DMPs to patients’ needs defined in terms of multimor…

  • The importance of illness duration, age at diagnosis and the year of diagnosis for labour participation chances of people with chronic illness

    Open AccessMieke Rijken, Peter Spreeuwenberg et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2013

    Age at diagnosis and illness duration relate to chronically ill people's chances to participate in the labour market, but how and how strong they relate to labour participation depend on gender and the type of chronic disease at stake. Prospective studies are needed to assess illness trajectories of specific diagnostic groups along with the development of their school and work careers

  • Streetscape greenery and health

    Open AccessSjerp De Vrie, Sonja M E Van Dillen et al.ARTICLESocial Science & Medicine2013Citada por: 87Referencias: 61

    Several studies have shown a positive relationship between local greenspace availability and residents' health, which may offer opportunities for health improvement. This study focuses on three mechanisms through which greenery might exert its positive effect on health: stress reduction, stimulating physical activity and facilitating social cohesion. Knowledge on mechanisms helps to identify which type of greenspace is most effective in generatin…

  • Consumers’ interpretation and use of comparative information on the quality of health care

    Open AccessOlga C Damman, Michelle Hendriks et al.ARTICLEHealth Expectations2012

    Background Public reports about health‐care quality have not been effectively used by consumers thus far. A possible explanation is inadequate presentation of the information. Objective To assess which presentation features contribute to consumers’ correct interpretation and effective use of comparative health‐care quality information and to examine the influence of consumer characteristics. Design Fictitious Consumer Quality Index (CQI) data on …

  • Health-related behavior as a mechanism behind the relationship between neighborhood social capital and individual health - a multilevel analysis

    Open AccessSigrid M Mohnen, B Volker et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2012

    This study is one of the first to test a mechanism explaining much of the direct effect of small-area social capital on individual health. Neighborhood interventions might be most successful at improving health if they stimulate both social interaction and physical activity

  • Greenspace in urban neighbourhoods and residents' health

    Sonja M E Van Dillen, Sjerp De Vrie et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…2012Citada por: 20Referencias: 26

    BACKGROUND: Previous research shows a positive link between the amount of green area in one's residential neighbourhood and self-reported health. However, little research has been done on the quality of the green area, as well as on quantity and quality of smaller natural elements in the streetscape. This study investigates the link between the objectively assessed quantity and quality of (1) green areas and (2) streetscape greenery on the one ha…

  • Is a Green Residential Environment Better for Health? If So, Why

    Peter P Groenewegen, Peter Groenewegen et al.ARTICLEAnnals of the Association of…2012Citada por: 8Referencias: 38

    Over the past years our group has been working on a coherent research program on the relationships between greenspace and health. The main aims of this “Vitamin G” program (where G stands for green) were to empirically verify relationships between greenspace in residential areas and health and to gain insight into mechanisms explaining these relationships. In this article, we bring together key results of our program regarding the relevance of th…

  • Levensfilosofie en zorggebruik in Nederland

    Anna Maria Marangos, Peter P Groenewegen et al.ARTICLEMens & Maatschappij2010

    Philosophies of life and Health Care Utilization in the Netherlands .This study investigates to what extent people’s religious denomination relates to health care utilization. Religious denomination is seen as an indicator of a philosophy of life. We distinguish between Christian and Islamic religious and post-modern philosophies of life. Given that modern medical science and ensuing health care interventions are widely accepted, we do not expect…

  • The intention to switch health insurer and actual switching behaviour

    Open AccessMichelle Hendriks, Judith D De Jong et al.ARTICLEHealth Expectations2010

    Background Several western countries have introduced managed competition in their health care system. In the Netherlands, a new health insurance law was introduced in January 2006 making it easier to switch health insurer each year. Objective The objective was to measure people’s intention to switch health insurer and actual switching behaviour. We also examined whether some groups were less inclined to switch health insurer and/or had more diffi…

  • Determinants of public trust in complementary and alternative medicine

    Open AccessEvelien van der Schee, Peter P Groenewegen et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2010

    In the Netherlands, CAM is trusted less than conventional medicine. The hypotheses on institutional guarantees, media information, information from the network and people's personal experiences are confirmed by our study for the total sample, CAM non users and users. The other hypotheses are rejected

  • How do healthcare consumers process and evaluate comparative healthcare information? A qualitative study using cognitive interviews

    Open AccessOlga C Damman, Michelle Hendriks et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2009

    Several barriers to an effective use of comparative healthcare information were identified, such as too much information and the ambiguity of terms presented on websites. Particularly important for future research is the question of how comparative healthcare information can be integrated with alternative information, such as patient reviews on the Internet. Furthermore, the readability of quality of care concepts is an issue that needs further a…

  • Using Multilevel Modeling to Assess Case-Mix Adjusters in Consumer Experience Surveys in Health Care

    Olga C Damman, Janine H Stubbe et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2009Referencias: 27

    BACKGROUND: Ratings on the quality of healthcare from the consumer's perspective need to be adjusted for consumer characteristics to ensure fair and accurate comparisons between healthcare providers or health plans. Although multilevel analysis is already considered an appropriate method for analyzing healthcare performance data, it has rarely been used to assess case-mix adjustment of such data. The purpose of this article is to investigate whet…

  • Is Green Space in the Living Environment Associated with People's Feelings of Social Safety

    Open AccessJolanda Maas, Peter Spreeuwenberg et al.ARTICLEEnvironment and Planning A…2009Citada por: 13Referencias: 35

    The authors investigate whether the percentage of green space in people's living environment affects their feelings of social safety positively or negatively. More specifically they investigate the extent to which this relationship varies between urban and rural areas, between groups in the community that can be identified as more or less vulnerable, and the extent to which different types of green space exert different influences. The study incl…

  • Physical activity as a possible mechanism behind the relationship between green space and health

    Open AccessJolanda Maas, Robert A Verheij et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2008

    Our study indicates that the amount of green space in the living environment is scarcely related to the level of physical activity. Furthermore, the amount of physical activity undertaken in greener living environments does not explain the relationship between green space and health

  • Changes in health and primary health care use of Moroccan and Turkish migrants between 2001 and 2005

    Open AccessMajda Lamkaddem, Peter Spreeuwenberg et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2008

    Changes in health status concerned the mental health component. Changes in health status were paired with changes in health care utilization. Among the Turkish group, an unexpected decrease in GP contacts was noticed, whilst showing a generally unchanged health status. Further research taking perceived quality of care into account might help shedding some light on this outcome
