Life Goals and Well-Being: Does Financial Status Matter? Evidence from a Representative Hungarian Sample
Job insecurity and health: A study of 16 European countries
Although the number of insecure jobs has increased considerably over the recent decades, relatively little is known about the health consequences of job insecurity, their international pattern, and factors that may modify them. In this paper, we investigated the association between job insecurity and self-rated health, and whether the relationship differs by country or individual-level characteristics. Cross-sectional data from 3 population-based…
Health Aspirations in the Context of Age and Self-rated Health: Findings from a Representative Hungarian Sample
The present research examined the respondents' preferences for approach and avoidance health aspirations (i.e. health related life goals) in relation to their age and self-rated health (SRH) in a representative Hungarian sample ( N = 4841). Higher age predicted stronger preference for both orientations of health aspirations while SRH attenuated this relationship for approach and amplified it for avoidance health aspiration. Bad SRH predicted elev…
Comorbid Depression Is Associated With Increased Healthcare Utilization and Lost Productivity in Persons With Diabetes: A Large Nationally Representative Hungarian Population Survey
OBJECTIVE: To estimate the prevalence of depression among people with diabetes and to examine the association of comorbid depression with lost productivity and health resource utilization in persons with and without diabetes. METHODS: Cross-sectional survey, enrolling 12,643 individuals aged >18 years. Clustered, stratified sampling procedure was utilized. This sample represented 0.16% of the Hungarian adult population according to age, gender, a…
Anxiety Predicts Mortality and Morbidity After Coronary Artery and Valve Surgery—A 4-Year Follow-Up Study
Objective: To explore the long-term effect of anxiety and depression on outcome after cardiac surgery. To date, the relationship between psychosocial factors and future cardiac events has been investigated mainly in population-based studies, in patients after cardiac catheterization or myocardial infarction. Methods: In total, 180 patients who underwent cardiac surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass were prospectively studied and followed up for 4 …
The Relationship of Biological and Psychological Risk Factors of Cardiovascular Disorders in a Large-scale National Representative Community Survey
A large-scale national representative community survey of 11,122 persons aged more than 35 years included the investigation of the coincidence of depressive symptoms, vital exhaustion, cardiovascular disorders, stroke, and myocardial infarction. A total of 20.3% of the survey participants reported having experienced a cardiovascular disorder (CVD). Of the subjects reporting a CVD, 52.1% exhibited depressive symptoms (22.0% subthreshold depressive…
Low socioeconomic status of the opposite sex is a risk factor for middle aged mortality
Objectives: To examine the relations between subjective social status, and objective socioeconomic status (as measured by income and education) in relation to male/female middle aged mortality rates across 150 sub-regions in Hungary. Design: Cross sectional, ecological analyses. Setting: 150 sub-regions of Hungary. Participants and methods: 12 643 people were interviewed in the Hungarostudy 2002 survey, representing the Hungarian population accor…
Psychosocial Determinants of Premature Health Deterioration in a Changing Society: The Case of Hungary
The drastic increase of morbidity and mortality rates in the transforming Central-Eastern European countries, characterizing the last decades, offers a unique opportunity to analyse the relationship of those social, psychological and biological processes that contribute to rapid health modifications. In 1988 and 1995, two national representative surveys of the Hungarian population aged 16 or older ( N = 20,902 and 12,640 respectively) were conduc…
Behavioral Medicine in Hungary: Past, Present, and Future
During the socialist period before 1989, training in behavioral medicine and behavioral science was not a priority in Hungary's medical schools despite the nation's long tradition of psychosomatic and behavioral medicine. In this article, the authors review the development of behavioral medicine and behavioral science in Hungarian medical schools and outline some of the problems and future challenges these departments face. The resistance of facu…
Psychosocial risk factors, inequality and self-rated morbidity in a changing society
Depressive Symptomatology and Vital Exhaustion Are Differentially Related to Behavioral Risk Factors for Coronary Artery Disease
OBJECTIVE: This study proposes to assess the differences of two psychosocial risk indicators for coronary artery disease (CAD), ie, depressive symptoms and vital exhaustion. METHOD: In a representative, stratified, nation-wide sample of the population of Hungary over the age of 16 years (N = 12,640), analyses were made of whether those risk indicators were differentially related to several illness behaviors (including history of cardiovascular tr…
