Coverage and social and behavioural drivers of routine childhood immunisation in selected regions in the Philippines
INTRODUCTION: Like many countries globally, childhood immunisation coverage is below government targets in the Philippines and has worsened during the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases. This study aimed to identify the social and behavioural drivers of routine childhood immunisation and preferred caregiver information sources to improve uptake in the Philippines. METHODS: A quantitative, cross-sectional study…
Factors influencing pediatric Covid-19 vaccination uptake
Key factors associated with COVID-19 pediatric vaccination uptake in the Philippines were perceived protection against COVID-19 illness, government mandated regulations and healthcare worker recommendations, while non-vaccination was associated with safety concerns, and children's age and preference to not be vaccinated. Understanding the social and behavioral drivers among caregivers may help policy decision-makers and implementers develop targe…
Health and health behaviours in adolescence as predictors of education and socioeconomic status in adulthood – a longitudinal study
Health and health behaviours in adolescence predicted education and SES in adulthood. Even though the relationships were modest, they support the health selection hypotheses and emphasise the importance of adolescence for health inequalities during the life-course. Health and health behaviours were strongly associated with school performance and family background which together modified the paths from health and health behaviours to the outcomes
The 2019 Philippine UHC Act, Pandemic Management and Implementation Implications in a Post-Covid-19 World
The 2019 Philippine Universal Health Care Act (Republic Act 11223) was set for implementation in January 2020 when disruptions brought on by the pandemic occurred. Will the provisions of the new UHC Act for an improved health system enable agile responses to forthcoming shocks, such as this COVID-19 pandemic? A content analysis of the 2019 Philippine UHC Act can identify neglected and leverage areas for systems’ improvement in a post-pandemic wor…
Psychosocial reserve capacity, family background and selection of an educational path – a longitudinal study from Finland
Finnish students start academic or vocational track in upper secondary education at age 16 years. Track placement is based on grades, but family background and psychosocial resources may have influences. Using 2014 survey data of Grade 9 students in Helsinki Metropolitan area linked to the Joint Application Registry data as of 2017, we fitted two-level, sex-stratified, generalized structural equation models to determine how reserve capacity (acad…
Timing of puberty and reserve capacity in adolescence as pathways to educational level in adulthood—a longitudinal study
The results show that family SES affects the child's adult education level through psychosocial and biobehavioural pathways, but the biological pathway is mediated by school achievement
Adolescent reserve capacity, socioeconomic status and school achievement as predictors of mortality in Finland - a longitudinal study
High reserve capacity and good school achievement in adolescence significantly reduce the risk of mortality. In boys, these also mitigate the negative effect of low SES on mortality. These findings underscore the roles of reserve capacity and school achievement during adolescence as likely causal or modifying factors in SES-health inequalities
How socioeconomic circumstances, school achievement and reserve capacity in adolescence predict adult education level
Family socioeconomic circumstances directly influence adult education level. Adolescent psychosocial resources and health-promoting behaviour collectively termed as ‘reserve capacity’ and school achievement may likely mediate the effect of family socioeconomic circumstances on adult education level. We tested these relationships using 1985–1995 survey data on 12–18-year-old Finns (N = 41,822) linked with three-generation registry data of Statisti…
