  • Active labour market policies in emerging adulthood may act as a protective factor against future depressiveness

    Open Access•P Virtanen, Tapio Nummi et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2024

    Introduction: Drawing upon the framework of life course epidemiology, this study aligns with research on the mental health consequences of significant social transitions during early adulthood. The focus is on the variation in initial labour market attachment and the development of depressiveness, assuming that a firm attachment is associated with decreasing depressiveness. Methods: = 1,001) took place during their final year of compulsory school…

  • Psychosocial conditions during school-age as determinants of long-term labour market attachment

    Open Access•P Virtanen, Tapio Nummi et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2024

    This study contributes to existing knowledge through its novel exploration of labour market attachment and the revelation of the significance of proximal interpersonal relationships in attachment outcomes. Additionally, the study reaffirms the importance of externalizing behaviour, while suggesting that internalized symptoms in adolescence might have a less influential, though not negligible, role. These results underscore the importance of addre…

  • A life marked by early school leaving

    Open Access•Anneli Silvén Hagström, Anne Hammarström•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2024

    Even in a welfare regime like Sweden's in the early 1980s, early school leavers not in education, employment or training experienced class-related and gendered working and living conditions, which created unequal conditions for health. Despite Sweden's active labour market policies and their own practices of agency, the participants still ended up NEET and with precarious working life paths. Labour market policies should prioritise reducing unemp…

  • The relationship between interpersonal violence in adulthood and mental health

    Open Access•Shirin Ziaei, Anne Hammarström•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2023

    Our findings revealed that while the relationship between the experience of interpersonal violence and mental health symptoms may differ among men and women and with age, the experience of violence can be negatively related to the mental health in both genders

  • The importance of having a paid job. Gendered experiences of health and ill-health in daily life among middle-aged women and men

    Open Access•Anne Hammarström, B Lundman et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2021

    Gendered determinants of health and ill-health were identified in both working and domestic life. Public health policy needs to challenge the gender order in society, which defines the gendered structure of the labour market as well as the gendered relations in domestic life

  • The relevance of macroeconomic conditions on concurrent and subsequent alcohol use – results from two Northern Swedish cohorts

    Open Access•Noora Berg, P Virtanen et al.•ARTICLE•Addiction Research & Theory•2020

    Background: The aim of this study is to examine the relevance of macroeconomic conditions (boom vs. recession) and own labor market status on alcohol use in youth and midlife.Method: Two Northern Swedish cohorts, born in either 1965 (boom at age 21 years) or 1973 (recession at age 21 years), included all pupils attending the last grade of compulsory school in Luleå, in 1981 (n = 990) or 1989 (n = 686), respectively. Questionnaires were completed …

  • Living in the shadow of unemployment -an unhealthy life situation

    Open Access•Anne Hammarström, Christina Ahlgren•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2019

    A focus on young people's health experiences of transitions from school into the labour market brings a new focus on the importance of macroeconomic influence on social processes and contextualised mechanisms from a life-course perspective

  • (Un)safe spaces, affective labour and perceived health among people with trans experiences living in Sweden

    Open Access•Ida Linander, I Goicolea et al.•ARTICLE•Culture Health & Sexuality•2019

    Lack of safe space has been connected to ill health among people with trans experiences. This study analyses trans people's experiences of being in public, semi-public and community spaces using the analytical concept of safety/unsafety in relation to perceived health. The analytic framework draws on the concepts of cisgenderism, orientation, lines and comfort. The material analysed consisted of 18 individual interviews with people with trans exp…

  • Theorising women’s health and health inequalities

    Open Access•Ellen Annandale, Maria Wiklund et al.•ARTICLE•Global Health Action•2018

    the 'biologic-shaping of gender' as interweaving processes provides a fruitful approach to theorising the wider health inequalities experienced by women and girls

  • Constructing respectability from disfavoured social positions

    Open Access•Maria Wiklund, Christina Ahlgren et al.•ARTICLE•Global Health Action•2018

    BACKGROUND: Gender, class and living conditions shape health and illness. However, few studies have investigated constructs of femininity in relation to health and living conditions among young women who are unemployed and marginalised at an early age. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this research was to elucidate constructs of femininities in relation to structuring living conditions and expressions of health in Northern Swedish women. The time period of …

  • Prevailing over Adversity

    Open Access•Ylva B Almquist, Evelina Landstedt et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2018

    Disadvantaged circumstances in youth tend to translate into poor health development. However, the fact that this is not always the case has been seen as indicative of differential resilience. The current study highlights factors outside the context of the family with the potential to counteract the long-term negative influences of social and material adversity in adolescence on general health status. This study was based on two waves of questionn…

  • Health inequalities between employed and unemployed in northern Sweden

    Open Access•Anna Brydsten, Anne Hammarström et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal for Equity…•2018

    The health gap between employed and unemployed was explained by the difference in access to economic and social resources, and to a smaller extent in the trust in the institutional systems. Findings from this study corroborate that much of the mental health inequality in the Swedish labour market is socially and politically produced and potentially avoidable. Greater attention from researchers, policy makers on unemployment and public health shou…

  • How gender theories are used in contemporary public health research

    Open Access•Anne Hammarström, Gunnel Hensing•ARTICLE•International Journal for Equity…•2018

    This study contributes to identifying how gender theories are used in contemporary public health research, which can help researchers move beyond a categorical understanding of gender in health research

  • Social relationships in adolescence and heavy episodic drinking from youth to midlife in Finland and Sweden — examining the role of individual, contextual and temporal factors

    Open Access•Noora Berg, Olli Kiviruusu et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2018

    Micro and to a lesser extent macro level contexts are associated with heavy episodic drinking well into adulthood. The most relevant processes in the adolescent microsystem occur in family and peer settings. However, long-lasting protective or risk-raising effects between different settings and later HED were not found. Promoting good relationships across different contexts during adolescence may reduce the incidence of HED in adulthood

  • Different uses of Bronfenbrenner’s ecological theory in public mental health research

    Open Access•M Eriksson, Mehdi Ghazinour et al.•ARTICLE•Social Theory & Health•2018•Citada por: 19•Referencias: 6

    Bronfenbrenner’s ecological theory is appealing as a conceptual tool for guiding public mental health interventions. However, his theory underwent significant changes since its first inception during the late 1970s until his death in 2005, due to which the implications that can be drawn might differ depending on what concepts (i.e. early or later) of the theory is utilized. The aim of this paper was to examine how different concepts of Bronfenbre…

  • Are neighbourhood inequalities in adult health explained by socio-economic and psychosocial determinants in adolescence and the subsequent life course in northern Sweden? A decomposition analysis

    Open Access•F Jonsson, Miguel San Sebastian et al.•ARTICLE•Health & Place•2018•Referencias: 3

    This study explains neighbourhood deprivation inequalities in adult health for a northern Swedish cohort by examining the contribution of socio-economic and psychosocial determinants from adolescence (age 16), young adulthood (age 21) and midlife (age 42) to the disparity. Self-reported information from 873 participants was drawn from questionnaires, with complementary neighbourhood register data. The concentration index was used to estimate the …

  • Who is doing well

    Open Access•P Delfabbro, Jeremy Stevenson et al.•ARTICLE•Australian Psychologist•2018•Referencias: 7

    ObjectiveAccording to Diener (1984), wellbeing is a multi‐faceted concept reflecting satisfaction with life, good physical health, and fewer negative psychological symptoms. Using data from a 10‐year longitudinal study of school leavers (n = 390), we examine whether people aged 25 can be differentiated into clusters based on indicators of wellbeing, then whether membership in the healthy as opposed to the less healthy cluster can be predicted by …

  • Material Feminism and Epigenetics

    M Warin, Anne Hammarström•ARTICLE•Australian Feminist Studies•2018•Citada por: 2•Referencias: 59

    While there is increasing interest in gender and sex issues in the medical field, most research in medicine can still be defined as operating with a binary of sex/gender. Epigenetics presents a marked challenge to such binaries as it operates across many tightly held boundaries, blurring the lines between the biological and social. Feminist scholars are paying attention to this new field and reconsidering relationships between the politics of mat…

  • A systematic review including meta-analysis of work environment and burnout symptoms

    Open Access•Gunnar Aronsson, Töres Theorell et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2017

  • Intragenerational social mobility and functional somatic symptoms in a northern Swedish context

    Open Access•F Jonsson, Miguel San Sebastian et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal for Equity…•2017

    The current study did not find unanimous support for any of the theories. Nevertheless, it sheds light on the possibility that upward mobility may be beneficial to reduce stress-related health problems in mid-life over and above the exposure to prior and current class, while downward mobility can be of less importance for middle-age health complaints

  • Is unemployment in young adulthood related to self-rated health later in life? Results from the Northern Swedish cohort

    Open Access•Fredrik Norström, Urban Janlert et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2017

    Even among those becoming unemployed during young adulthood, unemployment is related to a negative long-term health effect. However, the effect varies among different groups of individuals. Increased emphasis on understanding the groups for whom unemployment is most strongly related to ill health is important for future research so that efforts can be put towards those with the biggest need. Still, our results can be used as the basis for decidin…

  • Binge drinking and total alcohol consumption from 16 to 43 years of age are associated with elevated fasting plasma glucose in women

    Open Access•Karina Nygren, Anne Hammarström et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2017

    Our findings indicate that reducing binge drinking and alcohol consumption among young and middle-aged women with the highest consumption might be metabolically favorable for their future glucose metabolism

  • The relationship between work and family preferences and behaviors

    Open Access•Karina Nilsson, Anne Hammarström et al.•ARTICLE•Acta Sociologica•2017•Referencias: 30

    Proposed theories to explain gender inequality in the labor market and family, such as gender specialization within families and gender segregation in the labor markets, lack consideration for individual preferences. Preference theory accounts for individual choice and gendered preferences but has been substantially criticized, indicating a need for further research. This study uses Swedish longitudinal data to explore how preferences for work an…

  • Unemployment, gender and mental health

    Open Access•Mattias Strandh, Anne Hammarström et al.•ARTICLE•Sociology of Health & Illness•2013•Citada por: 34•Referencias: 9

    Existing research suggests that gender differences in the effect of unemployment on mental health are related to the different positions and roles that are available for men and women in society and the family; roles that are connected with their different psychosocial and economic need for employment. The aim of this article is to analyse the role of gender in the relationship between unemployment and mental wellbeing in Sweden, representing a g…

    Anne Hammarström, Klara Johansson et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Epidemiology and…•2014•Citada por: 13•Referencias: 27

    Despite increasing awareness of the importance of gender perspectives in health science, there is conceptual confusion regarding the meaning and the use of central gender theoretical concepts. We argue that it is essential to clarify how central concepts are used within gender theory and how to apply them to health research. We identify six gender theoretical concepts as central and interlinked—but problematic and ambiguous in health science: sex…

  • Life-Course Accumulation of Neighborhood Disadvantage and Allostatic Load

    Per E Gustafsson, Miguel San Sebastian et al.•ARTICLE•American Journal of Public Health•2014•Citada por: 11•Referencias: 42

    Objectives. We examined if the accumulation of neighborhood disadvantages from adolescence to mid-adulthood were related to allostatic load, a measure of cumulative biological risk, in mid-adulthood, and explored whether this association was similar in women and men. Methods. Data were from the participants in the Northern Swedish Cohort (analytical n = 818) at ages 16, 21, 30, and 43 years in 1981, 1986, 1995, and 2008. Personal living condition…

  • Is gender inequality in the domestic sphere associated with psychological distress among women and men? Results from the Northern Swedish Cohort

    Sara Kalucza, Anne Hammarström et al.•ARTICLE•Health Sociology Review•2015•Citada por: 5•Referencias: 29

    According to previous studies, the relationship between parenthood and mental health is not straightforward. One reason could be that selection effects on parenthood are seldom accounted for. Using the unique Northern Swedish Cohort dataset, following individuals from age 16 to 43 (n = 1001), this study examines whether there is a selection effect of self-reported mental health in adolescence into parenthood; and whether entry into parenthood is …

  • Does transition from an unstable labour market position to permanent employment protect mental health? Results from a 14-year follow-up of school-leavers

    Open Access•Ieva Reine, Mehmed Novo et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2008

    Our findings suggest that transition from an unstable labour market position to permanent employment could be health-promoting, even after controlling for possible confounders and mediators, as well as for an indicator of health-related selection. However, as there are few studies in the field, there is a need for more longitudinal studies in order to further analyse the relationship and to examine possible explanations. The policy implication of…

  • Reflections of men and women in advanced old age on being born the other sex

    Open Access•Lena Aléx, B Lundman et al.•ARTICLE•Ageing and Society•2010•Referencias: 33

    The study reported in this paper is part of the Umeå 85+ project in Sweden. The aim was to investigate gender perspectives among ‘the oldest old’, by asking men and women in advanced old age living in a sparsely populated area of northern Sweden to reflect on how life might have been if they had been born the other sex. Thematic narratives from nine men and seven women were analysed using qualitative content analysis. The content of these narrati…

  • Health Against the Odds

    Open Access•Sofia Elwér, Lena Aléx et al.•ARTICLE•Qualitative Health Research•2010•Citada por: 6•Referencias: 31

    Women-dominated elder care in Sweden is a low-paid, low-status job with a high prevalence of sick leave. Our aim was to analyze health experiences of employees in elder care from a gender perspective. All caregiving staff at two establishments providing care to the elderly were invited to participate in the study. A moderator led seven focus group discussions. Qualitative content analysis was used to analyze the transcribed focus groups. We ident…

  • Is the core-periphery labour market structure related to perceived health? findings of the Northern Swedish Cohort

    Open Access•Anna-Karin Waenerlund, Per E Gustafsson et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2011

    Our findings suggest that exposure to peripheral employment positions has an impact particularly on mental health, partly due to the over-representation of other unfavourable social and employment conditions among those with substantial exposure to peripheral employment

  • Shared Ambiguity but Different Experiences and Demands among Dental Students — A Gender Perspective

    Ingrid Schéle, Leif Hedman et al.•ARTICLE•Qualitative Research in Psychology•2011•Referencias: 5

    This study explores how dental students experience their clinical semesters from a gender perspective. Twelve students (seven women and five men) and three teachers (two women and one man) at the Umeå dentistry programme participated in semi-structured interviews that were analysed with Grounded Theory methodology. The model we propose consists of the core category Experiencing ambiguity and the three categories Experiencing pressure and stress, …

  • Socioeconomic status over the life course and allostatic load in adulthood

    Per E Gustafsson, Urban Janlert et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Epidemiology and…•2011•Citada por: 10•Referencias: 35

    BACKGROUND: Although several studies have reported rather consistent associations between socioeconomic status (SES) and allostatic load (AL), so far no study has examined the influence of SES over the life course on AL. The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between SES over the life course and AL in mid-adulthood, guided by the conceptual models of cumulative risk, critical period and social chain of risk. METHODS: The …

  • Constructing the 'gender-specific body

    Open Access•Ellen Annandale, Anne Hammarström•ARTICLE•Health An Interdisciplinary…•2011•Citada por: 2•Referencias: 47

    Gender-specific medicine, a new and increasingly influential ethos within medical research and practice, has received little critical attention to date. The objective of this article is to critically examine the attributes of gender-specific medicine as imparted by its advocates. Through a critical discourse analysis of its two leading academic journals, we identify five interrelated discourses: of male/female difference; of hegemonic biology; of…

  • Gender (in)equality among employees in elder care

    Open Access•Sofia Elwér, Lena Aléx et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal for Equity…•2012

    The health experience of the participants was affected by gender (in)equality in terms of a gendered work division. However, the participants did not see the gendered work division as a gender equality issue. Gender perspectives are needed to improve the health of the employees at the workplaces through shifting from individual to structural solutions. A healthy-setting approach considering gender relations is needed to achieve gender equality an…

  • The importance of childhood and adulthood aspects of gendered life for adult mental ill-health symptoms – a 27-year follow-up of the Northern Swedish Cohort

    Open Access•Anna Månsdotter, Mikael Nordenmark et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2012

    Adulthood gender equality is generally good for self-reported mental health regardless of whether one opposes or continues one's gendered history. However, the childcare findings indicate a differentiated picture; men seem to benefit in depressive symptoms from embracing this traditionally female duty, while women suffer anxious symptoms from departing from it, if their mother did not
