Description

Throughout the course of our life, social and environmental influences have an impact on health. Social injustices we endure as youngsters frequently have an impact on our health later in life. Since they accompany individuals from birth to death, welfare states are seen as essential to public health and health disparities. Lower socioeconomic conditions throughout childhood are associated with a range of negative health outcomes, including an increase in mortality, an increased risk of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and common mental disorders, as well as a drop in self-related health. The degree of welfare assistance varies throughout European welfare states, which are frequently described in terms of welfare regimes. Welfare regimes are a recognized macro determinant of public health that have an effect on health by influencing all important social factors that affect health, such as access to housing, social assistance, health care, and education. Welfare regimes, in a larger sense, set the circumstances for social determinants and the degree of exposure to these for various socioeconomic groups. The extent to which welfare regimes alter the link between Childhood Economic Stress (CES) and adult health is less apparent. This study has two objectives:

• The relationship between economic stress throughout childhood and adult self-rated health and cancer incidence.

• If welfare regimes affect these relationships. To supplement our welfare regime approach, we conducted secondary studies on the relationships between public social expenditure and income inequality.

Public health efforts, welfare policies and population health

Welfare states have an impact on many aspects of a person's life and may have long-term, cumulative consequences on their health, leading to different welfare state life courses. The majority of research has concluded that the Scandinavian welfare regime offers better health than other welfare regimes, and this finding appears to be true for studies on generosity of the welfare state, political traditions, and population as well as studies on welfare regime typologies. The highest level of individual independence from market income and family dependency is seen in the Scandinavian welfare system. Scandinavian welfare states therefore give people access to resources that can enhance living circumstances throughout the course of their lives while protecting them to a greater extent than other welfare states from possible market and family "failures." Impacts on population health of certain public health policies, health behaviour’s, and healthcare systems Health behavior’s (such as smoking, drinking, eating, and physical activity) differ amongst European nations. Generally speaking, primary preventative (fiscal policy, workplace regulation, education) and secondary preventative (screening) actions can lessen health disparities. The application and results of primary and secondary health strategies vary significantly. In comparison to Eastern and Southern nations, Nordic nations have done well, notably in terms of alcohol restriction, child safety, and breast cancer screening. Healthcare typologies have more recently been incorporated into comparative health studies. In contrast to the welfare regime typology, the Nordic nations cluster into a performance and primary-care focused type, and the Eastern countries into a lowsupply and poor performance.

Childhood economic stress

By asking individuals and their families when frequently they encountered significant financial hardships as children, childhood economic stress was evaluated. The variable had five categories, with "always" and "frequently" having a code that made them visible. Unexposed was coded with the words "sometimes," "rarely," and "never." A letter was given to the participants that stated. The understood in reference to fundamental consumption. It should have been tough for the family to pay for basic requirements like food, clothing, shelter, bills, etc.
