Abstract
The influence of socioeconomic status (SES) on health is gaining increasing interest. In numerous societies, a stepwise descent in the SES helps with the prediction of increased risks of cardiovascular, respiratory, and psychiatric diseases; low birth weight; infant mortality; and mortality from other causes. The relationship between SES and the above conditions is predominately due to the influence of SES on health rather than the converse, and the disease incidences can be several times greater at the lower end of the SES spectrum
