Education, Social Status, and Health (Social Institutions and Social Change)
ISBN: 0202307077
Binding: Paperback
Edition:
Author(s): Catherine E. Ross, John Mirowsky
Publisher: Aldine Transaction
Number of Pages: 250
Education forms a unique dimension of social status with qualities that make it especially important to health It influences health in ways that are varied present at all stages of adult life cumulative self-amplifying and uniformly positive Educational attainment marks social status at the beginning of adulthood functioning as the main bridge between the status of one generation and the next and also as the main avenue of upward mobility It precedes the other acquired social statuses and substantially influences them including occupational status earnings and personal and household income and wealth Education creates desirable outcomes because it trains individuals to acquire evaluate and use information It teaches individuals to tap the power of knowledge Education develops the learned effectiveness that enables self-direction toward any and all values sought including health
For decades American health sciences has acted as if social status had little bearing on health The ascendance of clinical medicine within a culture of individualism probably accounts for that omission But research on chronic diseases over the last half of the twentieth century forced science to think differently about the causes of disease Despite the institutional and cultural forces focusing medical research on distinctive proximate causes of specific diseases researchers were forced to look over their shoulders back toward more distant causes of many diseases Some fully turned their orientation toward the social status of health looking for the origins of that cascade of disease and disability flowing daily through clinics
Why is it that people with higher socioeconomic status have better health than lower status individuals The authors who are well recognized for their strength in survey research on a broad national scale draw on findings and ideas from many sciences including demography economics social psychology and the health sciences People who are well educated feel in control of their lives which encourages and enables a healthy lifestyle In addition learned effectiveness a practical end of that education enables them to find work that is autonomous and creative thereby promoting good health
John Mirowsky and Catherine E Ross are professors in both the Department of Sociology and Population Research Center at the University of Texas at Austin
"Mirowsky and Ross have done the population health community a splendid service by presenting a compelling and complex story for the relationship between social status and health and identifying many important contentious issues for future theoretical debate and empirical exploration I highly recommend Education Social Status and Health to all health researchers interested in the social and economic determinants of health and well-being" -Gerry Veenstra Canadian Journal of Sociology Online
