课程简介
社会学一直对了解不良健康的社会原因和后果以及在非常不同的条件下重现这些联系的潜在社会过程感兴趣。宾夕法尼亚州立大学的社会学系是研究与健康和疾病相关的社会过程的国际领导者。这包括健康与家庭,移民,生活历程和社会不平等体系之间的关系。“良好”的身心健康经验是社会建构的,并植根于社会过程。我们的健康受到以下因素的影响:我们的社会关系,我们的社会特征(例如种族,种族和性别),我们居住的地方,我们的社会经济资源以及我们与社会机构(例如家庭,学校,教堂和医疗保健)的互动方式系统)。这些健康的社会决定因素在健康经历以及
The experience of both good physical and mental health is socially constructed and rooted in social processes. Our health is influenced by our social connections, our social characteristics (e.g., race, ethnicity and gender), where we live, our socioeconomic resources, and how we interact with social institutions (e.g., families, schools, churches, and the health care system). These social determinants of health generate tremendous inequalities in health experiences and the risk of disease, violence, and premature death. Sociology has long been interested in understanding the social causes and consequences of poor health and the underlying social processes that reproduce these connections under very different conditions. The sociology faculty at Penn State is an international leader in the study of social processes related to health and illness. This includes the relationship between health and the family, immigration, the life course, and systems of social inequality.
