Abstract: Disaster experiences have long-term health effects. However, less is known about the pathways of the association between disaster experiences and people’s long-term health. We aimed to examine the long-term (10-year) effect of housing damage in the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake on survivors’ health and to explore the pathways of the long-term effect.
