 Educational inequalities in self-rated health and social relationships – analyses based on the European Social Survey 2002-2016Nico Vonneilich, Daniel Lüdecke and Olaf von dem Knesebeck Social Science & Medicine, 2020, vol. 267, issue C Abstract: While there is evidence for educational health inequalities in Europe, studies on time trends and on the explanatory contribution of social relations are less consistent. It has been shown that the use of welfare state typologies can be helpful to examine health inequalities in a comparative perspective. Against this background, analyses are focused on three research questions: (1) How did educational inequalities in self-rated health (SRH) develop between 2002 and 2016 in different European countries? (2) In how far can structural and functional aspects of social relations help to explain these inequalities? (3) Do these explanatory contributions vary between different types of welfare states?
