Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Low SES (socioeconomic status) is a known risk factor for numerous negative health outcomes, including higher rates of mortality, morbidity, disability, and lower vitality. Low SES can limit access to healthcare, education, healthy food options, and safe environments, all of which can contribute to poorer health outcomes. Early childbearing, overweight, and divorce can also have negative impacts on health, but they may not be as consistently linked to negative health outcomes across all populations as low SES.
