  • Parental education disparities in childhood vaccination in Denmark

    Open Access•Vibeke Tornhøj Christensen, Andrea N Polonijo et al.•ARTICLE•Social Science & Medicine•2026

    How does misinformation contribute to socioeconomic disparities in childhood vaccine uptake? While prior research has extensively examined the determinants of vaccination at the population-level, less attention has been paid to the mechanisms generating disparities across socioeconomic status (SES) groups. A fundamental cause theory perspective suggests that vaccination disparities driven by misinformation are due to unequal access to resources t…

  • Gendered perceptions of own and partner weight-level

    Open Access•Vibeke Tornhøj Christensen, Vibeke Christensen•ARTICLE•Health An Interdisciplinary…•2012•Cited by: 1•References: 41

    This study investigates gender differences in perceptions of body weight. Previous research has found significant gender differences in perceived weight-level, but less is known about weight perceptions of the opposite gender. Based on Danish survey data (859 women and 160 men), the discrepancy between BMI weight-level and self-perceived weight-level is estimated as well as the perception of one's partner's weight-level. Two main empirical conclu…

  • Vægt og kapital – Differentieret vægt hos voksne og børn analyseret gennem Bourdieus begreber om habitus og kapital

Artiklen tager udgangspunkt i Bourdieus praksisteori og begreber som livsstil, habitus og kapital, der forbinder objektive liv…
