American Journal of Public Health, 1978, vol. 68, issue 12, 1219-1221

Abstract: This study was conducted to determine whether the depressed economic conditions of the mid-1970s, particularly the 3 per cent rise in unemployment, led to larger increases in hospital emergency room and clinic visits than would otherwise be expected, and whether such conditions caused shifts in the characteristics of hospital-based ambulatory care visits.
