Childhood social circumstances and health behaviour in midlife: the Metropolit 1953 Danish male birth cohort
Research output: Contribution to journal › Journal article › Research › peer-review
It has been suggested that the association between social disadvantage in childhood and adult mortality could come about through processes related to the family environment in which the child is raised. This study examines the relationship of fathers' social class with health behaviour in middle age and assesses the potential mediating role of cognitive function, educational status and social integration in young adulthood in these relationships.
