RATIONALE Health disparities defined by neighborhood socioeconomic status (SES) are well established; it is less well understood whether neighborhood SES is differentially associated with health depending on one's own SES. OBJECTIVE The double jeopardy hypothesis, collective resources model, fundamental cause theory, and relative deprivation hypothesis support differential patterns of associa...

A large body of SES-Attainment studies has established the relationship between student’s socioeconomic background and academic achievement, making SES a single powerful predictor of student’s performance. Typically SES is measured as a composition of parental education, occupation and income. However, a variety of alternative measurement of SES has also been developed (White, 1982; Sirin, 2005...

The relationship between socioeconomic status (SES) and health changes as a society develops. In developed countries, high SES is associated with better health, but in developing countries, high SES is associated with poorer health. However, measuring SES is difficult in countries like India, where the traditional class and caste system are interwoven and complex. The current study explored the...

Low socioeconomic status (SES) during childhood confers risk for adverse health in adulthood. Accumulating evidence suggests that this may be due, in part, to the association between lower childhood SES and higher levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Drawing from literature showing that low childhood SES predicts exaggerated physiological reactivity to stressors and that lower SES is associate...

Research demonstrating that socioeconomic status (SES) differentials in health are smaller at older ages often considers only individual SES measures (e.g., income, education) but not community SES measures (e.g., community poverty rate), although the gerontological literature suggests that community context may be particularly salient in the lives of older adults. This study uses two national ...

Un anneau est un ensemble A muni de deux lois de composition internes + et × telles que (A,+) est un groupe commutatif d’élément neutre noté 0 et la loi × est associative et distributive à gauche et à droite par rapport à +. Si × admet un élément neutre 1 on dit que l’anneau est unitaire. Si × est commutative on dit que l’anneau est commutatif. L’anneau des matrices d× d pour d ≥ 2 est unitaire...
