International Journal of Public Health, 2009, vol. 54, issue 4, 213-221

Abstract: Using non-linear canonical correlation analysis, health characteristics can be analysed in conjunction with socio-economic conditions and lifestyles. Based on Bourdieus theoretical approach, the complex correlations between these variables can be more substantially interpreted and presented. Copyright Birkhäuser Verlag, Basel 2009
