A study in social factors associated with illness status was conducted in an Australian suburban community. Forty six per cent of adults reported a chronic physical condition and twenty four per cent were psychiatrically impaired. Life event stress, adverse childhood experience and poor social support were related to both physical psychiatric illness. Low occupation status was associated with poor physical health and a poor coping style was associated with psychiatric illness. Twenty per cent of the physical illness and thirty seven per cent of the psychiatric impairment could be attributed to the presence of social factors.
在澳大利亚一个郊区社区开展了一项关于与疾病状况相关的社会因素的研究。46%的成年人报告患有慢性身体疾病，24%有精神障碍。生活事件压力、童年不良经历和社会支持不足与身体和精神疾病均有关联。低职业地位与身体健康不佳相关，而不良的应对方式与精神疾病相关。20%的身体疾病和37%的精神障碍可归因于社会因素的存在。
