Sociala relationer och hälsa

Under de senaste åren har det skett ett ökat intresse för sociala relationer och socialt kapital inom hälsoforskningen. Socialt kapital anses i allmänhet vara positivt relaterat till hälsa. För en översikt av begreppet socialt kapital och en urskiljning av dess olika former med fokus på deras hälsoeffekter, se Ferlander (2007). Det har dock gjorts relativt få studier om socialt kapital och hälsa i Östeuropa. Inom detta forskningstema undersöks därför sambandet mellan fenomenen i Ryssland och Ukraina. Mer specifikt studeras:

  • sambandet mellan olika former av socialt kapital och hälsa.
  • genusskillnader i sambandet mellan socialt kapital och hälsa.
  • mekanismer mellan socialt kapital, genus och hälsa.

Både fysisk och psykisk hälsa studeras med hjälp av våra tre surveyundersökningar: Moscow Health Survey 2004; Stakhanov Health Survey 2009 och Yaroslavl Health Survey 2010-2011.

SCOHOST har redan genomfört ett flertal studier om sociala relationer och socialt kapital i Moskva. Resultaten visar bl a att tilliten till institutioner är mycket låg bland Moskvabor (Ferlander & Carlson 2005; Stickley m fl 2009). Studier har också påvisat att olika former av sociala relationer och socialt kapital påverkar omåttlig alkoholkonsumtion (Jukkala m fl 2008), psykisk hälsa (Kislitsyna & Ferlander 2008), självskattad hälsa (Ferlander & Mäkinen 2009) och viktimisering (Stickley & Pridemore 2010) i Moskva. I samtliga studier erhölls signifikanta genusskillnader i sambanden. Exempelvis föreligger inga samband mellan någon form av socialt kapital och självupplevd hälsa bland kvinnor, medan ett signifikant samband finns mellan sociala relationer utanför familjen och mäns självskattade hälsa i Moskva (Ferlander & Mäkinen 2009).

Urban miljö och hälsa

Samhällena i Central- och Östeuropa (CEE) är till stor del urbaniserade. De demografiska och folkhälsorelaterade karaktärsdragen i regionen är därför intimt förbundna med fysiska, miljömässiga och sociala karakteristika betingade av den urbana miljön. Detta forskningstema undersöker befolkningen, hälsogeografi i CEE städer inom kontexten postkommunistisk transformation, genom att studera ett antal temata som är avgörande för förståelsen av befolkningsminskningen i regionen, inkluderande:

  • Hälsa och livsmiljö
  • Ursprung och orsaker till den urbana befolkningsminskningen
  • Ursprung, mönster och förlopp av etnisk och socio-ekonomisk bostadssegregation
  • Bostadskvalitet och bostadsojämlikheter
  • Sociala processer och urban social infrastruktur.

Den metodologiska inriktningen är väsentligen baserad på kvantitativa metoder. Huvudsakligt källmaterial är Stakhanov och Yaroslavls intervjuundersökningar inom hälsoområdet (SHIS 2009 och YHIS 2011), men även annan survey data används. Vidare används arkivmaterial i de historiska studier som syftar till att extrapolera socialisternas inverkan på strukturen av dagens bostadsområden.

Psykologiska aspekter på hälsa - Självmordsmortalitet i Östeuropa och östra Centraleuropa

En del av huvudprojektet är att undersöka självmordsmortaliteten i Östeuropa samt östra Centraleuropa med fokus på förändringar och dess orsaker under transitionsperioden.

Mer specifika temata är: självmordsforskningens historia i Ryssland, historiska förändringar i rysk suicidmortalitet, attityder till självmord i Östeuropa, sociala konkomitanter till självmord så väl som generella frågor kring suicidepidemiologisk teori. Professor Ilkka Henrik Mäkinen är ansvarig för detta område.

I projektet ingår forskningspartner från WHO European Region samt flera suicidforskare från både Öst- och Västeuropa.

Surveyundersökningar

Moscow Health Survey 2004

Moscow Health Survey 2004 var utformad för att undersöka hälsa hos Moskvabor i relation till beteendemönster, ekonomi och sociala faktorer. Undersökningen är ett samarbetsprojekt mellan SCOHOST och Institute of Social and Economic Studies of Population (ISESP) på ryska vetenskapsakademin i Moskva.

Våren 2004 utfördes 1200 personliga intervjuer med hjälp av ett strukturerat frågeformulär som bestod av ett 100-tal frågor uppdelade i fem områden: demografi, socioekonomisk status, levnadsstandard, hälsa, livsstil och socialt kapital.

Det slumpmässiga urvalet, med kontroll för kön och åldersgrupp, utfördes i 125 kommunala distrikt i Stor-Moskva. Svarsandelen var 47 % och antalet uppgick till 1190 personer, vars demografiska och socioekonomiska karaktär kan anses representativt för Stor-Moskva.

Moscow Health Survey har lett till en rad publikationer i vetenskapliga tidskrifter. Artiklarna har behandlat flera olika ämnen, t ex: surveymetodologi, självuppskattad hälsa, omåttlig alkoholkonsumtion, rökning, viktimisering, attityder mot sexpartners, våld mot kvinnor, accepterande attityder gentemot självmord samt tillit till institutioner; vilka har satts i relation till variabler som: kön, utbildning, ekonomisk situation och olika former av socialt kapital.

Stakhanov Health Survey 2009

Denna intervjuundersökning slutfördes i juni 2009. Med ett urval på 3000 svarande är det en av de största hälso- och befolkningsundersökningarna som genomförts i en enskild stad i Central och Östeuropa. Ämnen som tas upp i frågeformuläret spänner från generella fysiska och mentala hälsoindikatorer till frågor relaterade till fertilitet och mortalitet, boende, tillit till samhälleliga institutioner och migration.

Stakahanov är en liten stad (ca 80 000 invånare) i kolgruvedistriktet Donbass i östra Ukraina. Genom den Sovjetiska kommandoekonomins frånfälle har stadens industriella bas blivit obsolet och gjort en stor del av arbetskraften överflödig. Den globala ekonomiska krisen under 2008-2009 accentuerade ytterligare tyngden i den interna kris som den post-sovjetiska omstruktureringen av ekonomin innebar för Stakahanov. I ljuset av detta kan vår undersökning sägas reflektera en utveckling som sker i en miljö av extrem ekonomisk ovisshet.
