Explanation for health inequalities: materialist cultural/behavioural psychosocial life course political economy

Answer 22

latency pathway cumulative

Answer 23

early childhood experiences predispose children to either good or bad health - exposures during pregnancy and EC

Answer 24

exposures to risk factors at one point in time may not have immediate health effects, but can later lead to situations that do have health consequences - ex. lack of readiness to learn when children enter school

Answer 25

the longer children live under conditions of material and social deprivation, the more likely they are to show adverse developmental and health outcomes Accumulation of ad/disadvantage over time (manifests in a range of indicators of health) Learned helplessness: strong SDoH, children may feel unable to act effectively on the world

Answer 26

physical health and well-being; social competence; emotional maturity; language readiness to learn

Answer 27

1. parental education - lower education = lower pre-school attendance and less post-secondary education 2. migration background - first gen immigrant children do less well than non-migrant children 3. gender - girls have higher reading levels than boys 4. differences between schools - rich/poor go to different schools

Answer 28

by 2030, ensure that all girls and boys complete free, equitable and quality primary and secondary education leading to relevant and effective learning outcomes

Answer 29

improve services - focus on quality change behaviours - too simplistic and stigmatizing strengthen environments - community advocacy (force vs persuade gov) strengthen environments - healthy public policy (most effective!)
