OBJECTIVES
Health status of a population can be evaluated by health expectancy expressed as average lifetime in various states of health. The purpose of the study was to compare health expectancy in population groups at high, medium and low educational levels.
METHODS
Health interview data were combined with life table figures using Sullivan's method.
RESULTS
Life expectancy was 4.3 years longer for 30-year-old men with a high educational level than for those with a low level. At age 30, the proportion of expected lifetime in self-rated good health was 67.7%, 76.1% and 82.3% for men with a low, medium and high educational level, respectively. Among women, life expectancy differed by 2.7 years between low and high educational level, and the proportion of expected lifetime in self-rated good health was 62.5% at the low and 80.5% at the high educational level.
CONCLUSIONS
Educational level and life expectancy are clearly related. The social gradient in terms of health expectancy is even greater than that in terms of life expectancy.
目的
人群的健康状况可以通过以不同健康状态下的平均寿命来表示的健康期望寿命进行评估。本研究的目的是比较高、中、低教育水平人群的健康期望寿命。
方法
采用沙利文方法将健康访谈数据与生命表数据相结合。
结果
30岁高学历男性的预期寿命比低学历男性长4.3岁。30岁时，低、中、高学历男性自评健康状态下预期寿命的比例分别为67.7%、76.1%和82.3%。在女性中，低学历和高学历之间的预期寿命相差2.7岁，自评健康状态下预期寿命的比例在低学历时为62.5%，在高学历时为80.5%。
结论
教育水平与预期寿命明显相关。健康期望寿命方面的社会梯度甚至大于预期寿命方面的社会梯度。
