Latvijas un Eiropas iedzīvotāju pašnovērtētās veselības modelis un veselības riska faktori
2012
Latvijas un Eiropas iedzīvotāju pašnovērtētās veselības modelis un veselības riska faktori Darbā tiek novērtēta sociālekonomisko determinantu un veselības riska faktoru ietekme uz Latvijas un Eiropas iedzīvotāju veselību. Tiek piedāvāta jauna pieeja pašnovērtētās veselības modelēšanai. Pēc autores domām, veselības koncepcija ir pārāk sarežģīta, lai izmantotu viendimensijas ekonometriskos modeļus veselības determinantu efektu novērtēšanai. Darbā daudzdimensiju stereotipa logit (DSL) modelis tiek adaptēts veselības modelēšanas problemātikai. DSL ļauj noteikt faktoru efektu nemonotonitāti un atklāt nozīmīgos faktoru efektus tur, kur viendimensijas modeļi, piemēram, sakārtotais logit un probit,…
Association Between Self-Assessed Health and Attitude Towards Own Health
2014
This paper explores association between health and attitude towards own health in two dimensions – taking care of own health and lifestyle. We apply two-dimensional stereotype logit model to estimate association between self-assessed health and attitude towards health, after accounting for socioeconomic factors. We find evidence of strong positive association between health status and (perceived) taking care of own health and lifestyle. Analysis of perception of the two concepts – "taking care of own health" and "healthy lifestyle" – provides insights into possible reasons of not very good indicators of health behaviour among Latvian population.
Multidimensional Health Modelling: Association between Socioeconomic Factors and Health in Latvia
2012
This paper proposes new approach for modelling self-assessed health. We find that the concept of health is too complicated to measure effects of health determinants using a one-dimensional econometric model. We apply two-dimensional stereotype logistic model that allows capturing nonmonotonicity in effects of factors and revealing significant effects that remain unrevealed if single dimension models, such as ordered logit or ordered probit, are used. Modelling self-assessed health using multi-dimensional stereotype logit provides higher model goodness of fit and quality measures in comparison to ordered probit model. Multi-dimensional stereotype logit is applied to estimate association betw…
