越来越多的证据表明，消极的健康生活方式是前社会主义国家死亡率危机的主要社会决定因素。然而，人们对中亚的健康生活方式知之甚少，那里的预期寿命也在下降。本文探讨健康的生活方式在哈萨克斯坦和吉尔吉斯斯坦，以填补文献中的一个重要空白。数据表明，与吉尔吉斯斯坦人口寿命延长相一致，尽管哈萨克斯坦的经济状况有所改善，但死亡率危机仍在继续，但吉尔吉斯斯坦的这种生活方式更为积极。(C)2004爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
There is a growing body of evidence suggesting that negative health lifestyles are the principal social determinants of the mortality crisis in the former socialist states. Little is known, however, about health lifestyles in Central Asia, where the downturn in life expectancy was also experienced. This paper examines health lifestyles in Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan in order to fill an important gap in the literature. The data show, consistent with the improved longevity of the Kyrgyz population, that such lifestyles are more positive in Kyrgyzstan despite the somewhat better economic situation in Kazakhstan, where the mortality crisis continues.
