社会科学家早就证明，社会经济资源有益于健康。最近，学者们开始研究不同群体对给定资源获得的健康回报的潜在分层。在根本原因理论的激励下，本文考察了住房所有权作为一种具有潜在分层利益的显著卫生资源。与租房者相比，房主拥有更高的住房质量、财富、社区质量和融合度，以及身心健康。然而，有令人信服的理论理由认为，拥有住房的健康优势将在种族和民族之间不平等地分配。对2012年3月当前人口调查的分析初步表明，所有房主都体验到了显著的健康优势。进一步的研究发现，有强有力的证据表明，白人的房主健康优势与已婚和离婚者之间的差异不相上下。少数族裔家庭的优势要小得多，在拉丁裔或亚裔中也不是很明显。根据一系列可观察到的特征，与白人租房者和所有少数群体相比，白人房主显得格外健康。这导致了一个意想不到的发现，即种族/民族健康差异集中在房主身上。研究结果表明，通过获得社会经济资源并从社会经济资源中获得回报，健康方面的种族/族裔分层具有互动性质。
Social scientists have long demonstrated that socioeconomic resources benefit health. More recently, scholars have begun to examine the potential stratification in the health returns different groups receive for a given resource. Motivated by fundamental cause theory, this paper examines homeownership as a salient health resource with potentially stratified benefits. Homeowners have significantly greater housing quality, wealth, neighborhood quality and integration, and physical and mental health than renters. However, there are compelling theoretical reasons to expect the health advantage of homeownership to be unequally distributed across racial and ethnic groups. Analyses of the 2012 March Current Population Survey initially suggest all homeowners experience a significant health advantage. Further examination finds robust evidence for a homeowner health advantage among Whites, on par with the difference between the married and divorced. The advantage among minority households is considerably smaller, and not significant among Latinos or Asians. Conditioning on a broad array of observable characteristics, White homeowners emerge as exceptionally healthy compared to White renters and all minority groups. This leads to the unexpected finding that racial/ethnic differences in health are concentrated among homeowners. The findings demonstrate the interactive nature of racial/ethnic stratification in health through both access to and returns from socioeconomic resources.
