Intersection of gender and class in the assessment of self-rated health in the Spanish population
AIM: This study assesses the influence of various specific health conditions as activity limitations and groups of chronic diseases, in estimating poor self-rated health for the Spanish population aged 30-60, stratified by the intersections of gender and social class. Moving beyond unidimensional social gradients, the research utilises decision tree analysis to identify specific configurations of SRH responses that align with the epidemiological …
The Effects of Adult Children's Unemployment on Parental Mental Health
A large body of research shows that parental unemployment has negative consequences for children's mental health. However, we know much less about the reverse pattern in intergenerational crossover effects. This study fills the gap by showing how unemployment among adult children is related to parents’ mental health, and how this relationship is moderated by the geographical distance separating parents from their children. We analyze longitudinal…
A machine learning approach to determine the influence of specific health conditions on self-rated health across education groups
The same response to the self-rated health question may, in the case of women, represent different health profiles in terms of the health conditions that define it. As such, gendered health inequalities defined by education appear to be evident even in the process of evaluating one's own health status

The Influence of Economic Factors on the Relationship between Partnership Status and Health
This study explores the relevance of economic factors (e.g., a household's economic capacity and the prevailing economic context) to understand the relationship between the partnership status and the health of Spanish adult women and men (age 30-59). To do so, it draws on cross-sectional data from the Spanish sample of the European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC) for the years 2005, 2010, and 2015 (i.e., before, during,…

A Life-Course Approach to the Relationship Between Education, Family Trajectory and Late-Life Loneliness Among Older Women in Europe
The aim of this study is to expand our knowledge about the factors that condition late-life loneliness from a longitudinal perspective. We assess the long-term relationship between education, late-life loneliness and family trajectories in terms of the role of partnership and motherhood, as well as their timing for older women. We set two initial hypotheses: (1) family trajectory has a mediating effect and (2) education has a selection effect. Cr…
Are partner's features important to understand health at older ages? The Spanish case
To analyse health differences among partnered individuals in Spain aged 65-81 considering their combined (education of both partners and age gap) and household (economic capacity of the household) characteristics. A cross-sectional study of the 2015 Spanish sample of the European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions survey (EU-SILC) on partnered individuals aged 65-81 years (N = 1787). Using logistic regression models separately for w…
What influences individual perception of health? Using machine learning to disentangle self-perceived health
Self-perceived health is a subjective health outcome that summarizes all the health conditions and is widely used in population health studies. Yet, despite its well-known relationship with survival, it is still unclear as to which health conditions are actually taken into account when making an individual assessment of one's own health. The aim of this paper is to assess the influence of four objective health conditions - IADLs, ADLs, chronic di…
Satisfacción con la vida según la contribución a la esfera pública y privada en las parejas españolas adultas
El objetivo del trabajo es, tomando como referencia la revolución de género, explorar si la desigual participación relativa en la provisión de recursos económicos y la realización de las tareas domésticas en el hogar se asocia con diferencias en los niveles de satisfacción con la vida para las mujeres y hombres adultos que conviven en pareja en España. Para ello, se analizan mediante modelos de regresión lineal las muestras españolas para la Encu…
Until Death Do Us Part. The Influence of Own and Partner’s Socioeconomic Status on the Health of Spanish Middle-Aged Population
There are significant health differences between individuals according to their own and their partner's SES in an apparently advantageous population group (i.e., individuals living with a partner). The combinative approach permits obtaining more precise couple-specific SES profiles
Examining social determinants of health
Health differences in European populations seem to be defined, first, by education and, second, by living or not living with a partner. Additionally, different social contexts (gender inequalities, educational profile, etc.) in European countries change the influences on health of both the SDHs for both women and men

El efecto de la crisis económica sobre la salud en España según el nivel educativo y la relación con la actividad
The objective of this study is to explore the possible impact of the economic crisis on the health of the Spanish-born population not of retirement age (between 30 and 59 years). Specifically, using data from the European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC) for the years 2006, 2010 and 2014, we analyze differences in self-perceived health by socioeconomic profile and position occupied in the household. According to our resu…
Diferencias entre mujeres y hombres en la asociación entre la salud autopercibida y la mortalidad en las edades adultas en Europa
Objetivo: Explorar el patrón por edad de la relación entre el indicador de salud autopercibida y la mortalidad en las edades posteriores a la juventud (35-79) para hombres y mujeres en seis países europeos con trayectorias de morbilidad diferenciadas: Alemania, Francia, España, Italia, Polonia y Hungría. Métodos y datos: Descripción de los patrones tanto de la prevalencia de mala salud autopercibida como de la diferencia entre las transformacione…
Family histories and the demography of grandparenthood
Grandparenthood is an important phase of life for many individuals, and the grandparent role has consequences on younger generations and grandparents themselves
Posición en el hogar y género. Desigualdades en la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud entre la población adulta en España
Este artículo explora la asociación entre la posición en el hogar y la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud (CVRS) entre la población de 30-64 años residente en España (N=13.258) con una perspectiva de género. Se utilizan modelos multivariables de regresión lineal independientes según sexo a partir de la muestra española de la Encuesta Europea de Salud de 2009 incluyendo las siguientes variables de control: edad, relación con la actividad, ni…
De la monoparentalidad a la reconstitución familiar
