The study examines whether social capital affects health of older people more strongly than it affects health of younger individuals. Following Pierre Bourdieu's concept, social capital has been analysed on a cognitive dimension, distinguishing between institutional and informal social capital. The analysis is based on the data of the Austrian Health Interview Survey 2006–07 with a representative sample of 15,575 people. Multivariate linear regre…
Validity of self-reported weight and height in Austrian adults
Objective Epidemiological studies have shown that adults tend to underestimate their weight and overestimate their height. This may lead to a misclassification of their BMI in studies based on self-reported data. The aim of the present study was to assess the validity of self-reported weight and height in Austrian adults. Design Data on weight, height, health behaviour and sociodemographic characteristics of adults were collected in a standardize…
Perceived characteristics of the neighborhood and its association with physical activity behavior and self-rated health
Trends in socioeconomic inequalities in self-assessed health in 10 European countries
BACKGROUND: Changes over time in inequalities in self-reported health are studied for increasingly more countries, but a comprehensive overview encompassing several countries is still lacking.

METH…

This balance depends upon the availability and use of health-protective and health-restoring factors in the individual and in the environment that can be defined as internal and external resources” (page …
