Socioeconomic differences in self-reported chronic and acute illness were investigated in men and women using data from the General Household Surveys (1981-4). Logit models were used to investigate the influence of age, socioeconomic group, tenure, access to cars, area of residence and marital status on these measures of morbidity. For both measures local authority tenants, whether male or female, reported the most morbidity as did those with no access to cars. Both males and females reported increasing levels of illness the lower their socioeconomic group but similar patterns were not observed with acute illness. The significance of these present day inequalities is discussed.
利用综合住户调查（1981 - 1984年）的数据，对男性和女性自我报告的慢性和急性疾病中的社会经济差异进行了调查。使用逻辑模型研究年龄、社会经济群体、居住权、是否有车、居住地区和婚姻状况对这些发病率指标的影响。对于这两个指标，地方当局的租户，无论男女，以及没有车的人报告的发病率最高。无论男性还是女性，社会经济群体越低，报告的疾病水平越高，但急性疾病未观察到类似模式。讨论了当今这些不平等现象的重要性。
