The health of Arctic populations
The objective of the study was to examine whether cold climate is associated with poorer health in diverse Arctic populations. With climate change increasingly affecting the Arctic, the association between climate and population health status is of public health significance. The mean January and July temperatures were determined for 27 Arctic regions based on weather station data for the period 1961–1990 and their association with a variety of h…
Human cold exposure, adaptation, and performance in high latitude environments
Cold exposure is present to significant amounts in the everyday occupational and leisure time activities of circumpolar residents. A cross‐sectional population study demonstrated that Finns reported being exposed to cold on average 4% of their total time. Factors modifying cold exposure are: age, gender, employment, education, health, and amount of physical exercise. Several symptoms and complaints are associated with wintertime cold exposure and…
Structural pressures, social policy and poverty
The purpose of this article is twofold. The first aim is to examine 15 OECD countries from the point of view of the so‐called third‐generation studies, analysing if the development of poverty and income transfers has been uniform in countries classified under the same welfare state models. This has been done to test how appropriate it is to use welfare state models as an analytical tool in comparative welfare state research. The second aim is to …
