Description
Socioeconomic Conditions, Stress and Mental Disorders:Toward a New Synthesis of Research and Public Policy.
The papers in this collection examine recent research on relationships among socio-economic conditions, mental health, and mental disorder. They focus either on the “social stress process” as a mechanism in these relationships-- exposure to stress and the use of personal and social resources in coping with stress-- or on the influence of the larger context(s) on the way this mechanism works-- in particular, the socio-economic conditions of people’s lives and the settings in which they interact with others. Obstacles to translating basic knowledge into efficacious preventive strategies, and efficacious strategies into effective population and service interventions, are explored throughout.
