Resumo: O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o impacto da saúde bucal na qualidade de vida em adultos de diferentes níveis socioeconômicos. Este estudo transversal foi realizado em adultos de 35 a 59 anos, residentes em São Paulo - SP. Sendo, 113 adultos que usam o serviço odontológico público e 97 adultos que utilizam o serviço odontológico privado. O impacto da saúde bucal na qualidade de vida foi avaliado com o instrumento Oral Health Profile Impact (OHIP-14), de 2 formas: O OHIP-14 gravidade (soma total) e OHIP-14 prevalência (uma ou mais classificação "frequentemente" e "sempre") que foram avaliados nas 7 dimensões. Os adultos do serviço público foram classificados como nível socioeconômico baixo (NSE baixo) e os adultos do serviço privado, como nível socioeconômico alto (NSE alto). Foram aplicados questionários para obter os dados sociodemográficos e características do serviço odontológico utilizado. O impacto da saúde bucal nos dois grupos de adultos de diferentes níveis socioeconômicos e foram comparados através do teste do Qui-quadrado e do teste Mann Whitney. Os grupos foram semelhantes quanto aos dados demográficos (idade e sexo). A média do OHIP-14 gravidade dos adultos do NSE baixo foi 11,5 (+11,3), e para os adultos do NSE alto foram 5,9 (+9,1). O grupo dos adultos do nível socioeconômico baixo apresentou maior impacto negativo no OHIP-14 prevalência 76,6% (n=49), quando comparado ao grupo dos adultos do nível socioeconômico alto, que foi de 23,4% (n=15). No OHIP-14 prevalência, o grupo do NSE baixo apresentou maior impacto em 4 dimensões: limitação física, desconforto psicológico, incapacidade psicológica e incapacidade social (p<0,05), e no OHIP-14 gravidade em todas as dimensões com exceção da limitação física (p>0,05). Os adultos dos níveis socioeconômicos baixos e altos relataram impacto negativo da saúde bucal na qualidade de vida. Entretanto, os adultos do nível socioeconômico baixo apresentaram impacto em quase todas as dimensões do instrumento, especialmente nos aspectos funcionais
Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of oral health on quality of life in adults according to different socioeconomic levels. This cross-sectional study was carried out in adults aged 30 t0 59 years, living in São Paulo - SP. Being, 113 adults who use public dental service and 97 adults who use private dental service. The impact of oral health on quality of life was assessed with the instrument Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14), 2 ways: OHIP-14 severity (total score) and OHIP-14 prevalence (one or more rating of often and always) was evaluated in seven dimensions. Adults from public service were classified as low socioeconomic status (low SES) and adults from private service, as high socioeconomic status (high SES). Questionnaires were used to obtain demographic data and characteristics of the service used. The impact of oral health in two groups of adults from different socioeconomic levels were compared using the chi-square and Mann- Whitney test. The groups were similar with regard to demographic data (age and gender). The mean OHIP-14 severity of adults of low was 11.5 (+ 11.3), and for adults of high SES was 5.9 (+ 9.1). The group of adult of low socioeconomic status had more negative impact on OHIP-14 prevalence 76.6% (n = 49) compared to the group of adult high socioeconomic status, which was 23.4% (n = 15). OHIP-14 prevalence in the group of low SES had higher impact on 4 dimensions: physical limitations, psychological discomfort, psychological disability and social disability (p < 0.05), and OHIP-14 severity in all dimensions except for physical limitation (p>0.05). Adults of low and high socioeconomic levels reported negative impact of oral health on quality of life. However, adults of low socioeconomic impact exhibited in almost all dimensions of the instrument, particularly in the functional aspects

Full textL’objectiu general d’aquesta tesi és estudiar el cribratge de càncer de mama i en concret les desigualtats socials per classe social i país d’origen, així com la seva relació amb la disminució de la mortalitat. En conseqüència, s’han realitzat quatre estudis diferents: tres de metodologia quantitativa i un de qualitativa. Segons l’estudi quasi-experimental, la mortalitat per càncer de mama a Barcelona disminueix des d’abans de la introducció del programa poblacional de cribatge, però aquesta reducció és més accentuada desprès de la seva introducció. En base a l’Enquesta Nacional de Salut de l’Estat Espanyol de l’any 2006, existeixen desigualtats en la realització de mamografies periòdiques segons país d’origen i classe social. Segons els dos estudis realitzats a Barcelona, les dones immigrades procedents de països de renda baixa coneixen i realitzen menys les pràctiques de detecció precoç, ja que tenen altres prioritats i perceben més barreres i tabús. Les dones xineses són les que presenten més diferències amb les dones autòctones, seguides de les magribines i les filipines. El lloc d’origen, la classe social i el procés migratori són factors claus en les practiques preventives. En conclusió, és necessari afavorir l’accés a les pràctiques preventives a totes les dones i també realitzar accions específiques dirigides als grups més vulnerables sense deixar de tenir en compte els factors socioculturals que influeixen en les pràctiques preventives de les dones.

Full textThis thesis is based on the identification of gender inequalities in occupational health described in scientific literature, as well as in the analysis of gender inequalities in employed population in Spain and Europe, and how these gender inequalities are influenced by the occupational social class, sector of activity of the company and welfare state regime. Firstly, we identified gender inequalities in exposure to occupational hazards arising from the employment and working conditions, as well as work-related health problems from a systematic review on the scientific literature in different databases. Secondly, we analyzed 25 indicators of gender inequalities related to employment and working conditions, balancing job and family life and work-related health problems. To achieve this objective, we analyzed the sixth edition of the National Survey on Working Conditions from 2007. In addition, we explored how these 25 indicators of gender inequalities varied according to occupational social class and sector of activity of the company. Finally, we analyzed how the welfare state regime and the occupational social class could influence gender inequalities in the exposure to work-related psychosocial hazards. To achieve this objective, we analyzed the fourth edition of the European Survey on Working Conditions from 2005.

Full textThe rapid emergence of China has been accompanied by a significant increase in inequalities, resulting in profound changes affecting both the economic and social structures of China. The purpose of this doctoral thesis is to provide a better understanding of the diversity of these transformations, by combining macro and microeconomic analyses, together with economic and sociological approaches. Firstly, this research mobilizes provincial data in order to give a general overview of the level of regional disparities and of the spatial concentration of wealth. The recent decline in regional disparities can, among other things, be explained by the existence of growth spillover effects between Chinese provinces. Subsequently, the study is supplemented by the use of household survey data. The analysis of income polarization in rural and urban areas allows to highlight some shifts in its distribution, emphasizing in particular the constitution of population clusters in intermediate income ranges. An intensive investigation on the Chinese urban middle class is thereafter conducted so as to identify its members on an income-based definition, and to underline the heterogeneity of this category regarding employment and education. Finally, based on the example of food consumption and social attitude towards body weight, the vanguard role of middle class in the nutrition transition is highlighted. To conclude, the Chinese middle class appears to be a central category to ensure the further development of China

Full textThis thesis examines the way working class children’s practices and representations of science areconstructed. It aims to renew the approach of persistent inequalities in access to science pathwaysand careers, in which women and people from the working class and/or ethno-racial minoritiesremain largely underrepresented. In order to question power relationships underlying access toscience in a new way, this research considers science not only as a body of knowledge and aprofessional eld, but also as a culture. Evidence for this study comes from longitudinal interviewsconducted with about 50 children (two interviews, in the 4th and 6th grade) and with parents,teachers, and science mediators. The analysis also relies on the detailed ethnographic study (4years of observation in classrooms) of an educational project aimed at promoting equality inscience which involved part of our sample, thus questioning the effects of this type of program.The thesis establishes that the social construct of gendered, classed and racialised patterns ofattitudes to science is the result of science-related cultural practices developed during childhood.On the one hand, several instances of cultural socialization (family, siblings, peers, school)combine to favor or hinder the development of children’s science hobbies. On the other hand, thescientific culture that children from the working class consume and practice leads them to constructrepresentations of science as other, and devoid of identificatory possibilities. This discourages girlsand boys from formulating science aspirations

The purpose of this research is to analyses the professional path of black women in multinational companies in São Paulo. The research looked at the diversity polices that these companies their procedures practices and try to answer how that influence on the career path of black women. We used for theory perspective the studies of durable inequalities stablish in the organizations and in the societies of Charles Tilly (1999) associated with the theory discussion of intersectionality of oppressions that has occurred belonging the racial, gender and social class perspectives from the black feminism, consolidated for Patrícia Hill Collins (2000) and Kimberlé Crehshaw (1993), about the definitions of matrix of domination and intersectionality of oppressions from race, gender and social class perspectives. The research uses qualitative method such as life history and the method of analyses was the thematic analyses. Semi-structured questionnaire was applied with six black women worked in multinationals companies in São Paulo. We began for the analyses of the black women path in the companies and about the process, polices of diversity promotion for identify the socio-organizational aspects that interfere in their professional path; which the individual and collective strategies that women deployed for compete in the labor market and if the diversity polices implemented for the companies contribute (or not) with their professional path. Based on the analyses of the interviews with these black women the research highlights the following: the research also provides insights that most of these women they come from low social class and their path showed a mix of oppressions belongs to the racial, gender and social class characteristics and all of them had to confront in company’s environment. This environment is still homogeneous – White, masculine and upper class – hampered and putted barrier to be win for the black women for the fact that the categorical peer woman/black/poor intervene with as durable inequality, individually and collectively for their women. These durable inequalities stablish the apprehension and control to access to the productive resources in the organizations, build discrimination related and analyzed in the interviews of the black women professional path, in the basic mechanisms of perpetuation of these durable inequalities could be identify and analyses in the existence of black women in companies, in this present thesis.

A presente pesquisa visa analisar as trajetórias profissionais de mulheres negras em empresas multinacionais em São Paulo, atendo-se às políticas de diversidade que essas multinacionais vêm empreendendo. Trata-se de compreender se as práticas, os processos e os procedimentos de valorização da diversidade interferem na trajetória profissional dessas mulheres. A pesquisa lança mão dos estudos sobre desigualdades duráveis e a discussão que o mesmo estabelece para compreender as organizações em sociedades desiguais, como os estudos de Charles Tilly (1999). Esta perspectiva associa-se à discussão teórica da interseccionalidade de opressões, advindas dos pertencimentos racial/de gênero/de classe social; dos estudos do feminismo negro, consolidados por Patrícia Hill Collins (2000) e Kimberlé Crehshaw (1993), sobre as definições dos conceitos: de matrix de dominação e insterseccionalidade de opressões, relacionados ao pertencimento de raça, gênero e classe social. Foram realizadas entrevistas junto a seis mulheres negras que trabalham em empresas multinacionais em São Paulo. Partiu-se da análise das trajetórias delas nas empresas e dos processos, práticas e procedimentos de promoção de políticas de diversidade para identificar os aspectos sócio-organizacionais que interferem nas trajetórias dessas mulheres; quais as estratégias individuais e coletivas que elas utilizaram para competir no mercado de trabalho e, ainda, se as políticas de diversidade implementadas pelas empresas contribuíram (ou não) para suas trajetórias. A pesquisa utilizou a história de vida como abordagem metodológica qualitativa e, como análise de conteúdo, o método de exame das entrevistas. Alguns dos principais resultados encontrados indicam que a maioria das mulheres negras entrevistadas advém de classes sociais baixas e suas trajetórias apresentam um mix de opressões, resultantes do pertencimento racial, de gênero e classe social; aspectos presentes no âmbito das empresas. Tais espaços ainda são homogêneos – brancos, masculinos e ricos – dificultando e impondo barreiras a serem vencidas pelas mulheres negras, devido ao trio categórico mulher/negra/pobre se interpor como uma desigualdade durável, não só individualmente, mas também de forma grupal para estas mulheres. Essas desigualdades duráveis estabeleceram a detenção e controle ao acesso de recursos produtivos nas organizações, criando distinções narradas e analisadas nas trajetórias profissionais das mulheres negras entrevistadas, nos quais os mecanismos básicos de perpetuação destas desigualdades duráveis puderam ser identificados e analisados no caso da vivência profissional de mulheres negras em empresas.

Full textAu regard des distorsions sociales qui ont suivi le mouvement de réformes initié en Chine à la fin des années 1970, cette thèse étudie les évolutions récentes relatives à trois principaux sujets : le marché du travail, le niveau d’éducation et le niveau de santé. En utilisant la base de données CHNS, je considère dans un premier temps les rendements du capital humain en Chine, étant donnés les besoins en gains de productivité liés à une économie plus compétitive. Je souligne l’augmentation des rendements de l’éducation et de la nutrition en Chine depuis 1991, soulignant également l’impact des réformes sur la manière dont les salaires sont fixés aujourd’hui. Cette conclusion apparaît dans un premier temps positive pour l’augmentation de la productivité et de la croissance dans l’avenir. Cependant, si les individus ne bénéficient pas d’un égal accès à l’éducation et à la santé, une plus forte rémunération de ces facteurs peut mener à une détérioration en termes d’inégalités. C’est pourquoi je me focalise dans un deuxième temps sur l’évolution relative au niveau d’éducation et de santé depuis le mouvement de réformes à travers deux canaux : la possible transmission du statut social des parents à leurs enfants, i. E. La mobilité sociale ; puis les inégalités de bien-être dans trois dimensions sociales que sont le revenu, l’éducation et la santé. Grâce à l’utilisation de matrices de mobilité ainsi que de stratégies économétriques, je démontre un niveau de mobilité salariale et en terme d’éducation en Chine dans la moyenne en comparaison à celui d’autres pays développés ou en développement. Cependant, l’impact croissant du salaire des parents sur la scolarisation des enfants peut se traduire par une mobilité plus faible dans le futur, dans la mesure où cela renforce les dynamiques inégalitaires. Mis en parallèle avec les résultats de l’analyse multidimensionnelle des inégalités de bien-être, je conclus que les inégalités sociales en Chine sont amenées à augmenter dans les années à venir, nécessitant des mesures politiques en faveur de l’amélioration de l’accès à l’éducation et à la santé

Full textThis dissertation analyses socio-economic inequalities in health among the elderly through a combined framework of socio-economic position, gender, regional socioeconomic development and social support. It is made up of three papers focusing on the different dimensions of socio-economic inequalities in health among the elderly. The most important findings are that socio-economic and gender inequalities in health persist in old age; that women present a poorer health status than men; that the impact of family characteristics on the health of older people differs by gender and the health indicator analysed; that social support constitutes an important determinant of health status; and that whereas regional socio-economic development constitutes a determinant of health status, it is not related to gender inequalities in health.

Full textFacius, Sascha. "Durable Housing Inequalities." Doctoral thesis, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.18452/19131.
Full textHow do the urban poor cope with housing displacement? What kinds of strategies do the urban poor develop? And what elements shape which strategies they deploy? To answer these questions, I unpack the idea of strategies for “coping” with the threat or uncertainty of displacement to arrive at sociological conceptualizations of these strategies – ones anchored in Bourdieu’s [1986] concept of capital as well as the application of Tilly’s [1999] theory of durable inequalities to housing. Empirically, I identify and analyze the anti-displacement strategies of the urban poor within the complex housing contexts of São Paulo and Istanbul by breaking down the housing market into sub-housing markets (housing forms) as they are used by the urban poor in each local context. Combining existing analytic frameworks with my original data, I also speculate about the effects of the identified strategies for the urban poor in terms of durable housing inequalities. According to the analysis, the identified strategies to avoid displacement or improve housing are not positively impacting the urban poor or the housing environment in the long run. To account for this, in the second step of the analysis I argue that the majority of strategies align with the causes and reinforcement mechanisms of durable inequalities that Tilly identified. This is not to say no battles have been won or that no individual situations have improved, but to say that the larger picture of housing inequalities warrants little optimism. Even when some new housing forms create assets in form of economic capital (e.g., land titles), the urban poor don’t seem to escape future displacement pressures. Therefore, although the anti-displacement strategies may temporarily ease displacement pressure, the durable inequalities of the housing market undermine substantial and sustainable change in the interest of the urban poor.

The concept of noblesse oblige establishes that the differential in privileges between the rich and the poor should be balanced by a differential in duties towards those in need. However, the empirical findings regarding which are the most prosocial groups havebeenascontroversialasthisassertive. Whereasresearchintheso-calledpsychological framework has advocated a negative relationship between social class and prosocial behavior, the economic approach has claimed the opposite (i.e., positive) direction to be true. This article sought to disentangle conflicting findings from these strands of research across two different studies. In the first study, we conducted a series of focus groups in both wealthy and impoverished areas. Results suggested that research in the domain of social class has been circumscribed to an almost conventionalized few prosocial behaviors that are not representative neither of wealthy nor of poor individuals. In the second study, we conducted surveys in the same areas. Results revealed that, despite having less resources and opportunities to help others, lower social class individuals are more prosocial than their upper-class counterparts. Furthermore, prosociality differences cannot be explained by a different pattern of targets of help across the social spectrum. Implications for practice and research on prosociality are also discussed.

Full textEsta tesis doctoral analiza las desigualdades socioeconómicas en la maternidad adolescente en Ecuador teniendo en cuenta los factores psicosociales y determinantes sociales que la influyen. Esta tesis se estructura en cuatro trabajos de investigación. En el artículo I, se analiza la influencia de los factores relacionados con la primera experiencia de relaciones heterosexuales y la educación sexual en las desigualdades socioeconómicas en la maternidad adolescente. A partir de este análisis observamos que los factores más importantes que influyen en la relación entre el estatus socioeconómico y la maternidad adolescente fueron los relacionados con la primera experiencia de relaciones sexuales heterosexuales. En el artículo II se analizan las tendencias de las desigualdades socioeconómicas en la maternidad adolescente y los factores relacionados con las primeras relaciones heterosexuales. Este estudio reveló que en los últimos 14 años no ha habido cambios en Ecuador en las condiciones socioeconómicas desventajosas de las madres adolescentes y en las características adversas de la primera experiencia de relaciones sexuales heterosexuales. En el documento III se describe la construcción de un índice de privación para el estudio de las desigualdades geográficas en salud en el Ecuador. Este estudio mostró un patrón geográfico de privación en los cantones habitados por grupos étnicos históricamente oprimidos. En el documento IV se analizan las desigualdades geográficas y sociales en la tasa de fertilidad adolescente (TFA) en Ecuador. Este estudio mostró un patrón geográfico de altas TFA en los cantones de la región costera y amazónica. Además, se observó una fuerte asociación entre la privación, la histórica opresión étnica y la desigualdad de género y la elevada TFA en cantones del país.
