Examining the relation between the subjective and objective social status with health reported needs and health-seeking behaviour in Dande, Angola
Description
We explored the distribution of a subjective social status measure (using the MacArthur social ladder) according to sociodemographic characteristics and objective socioeconomic status (OSS) indicators and their influence on the population's health reported needs and appropriate health-seeking behaviour in this low-income setting. This research results from a cross-sectional study performed during 2015 in Dande, including 12,246 households. A standardised questionnaire was used to assess OSS indicators (such as household income, education, personal assets ownership), SSS, health reported needs and the surveyed population's health-seeking behaviour.
