将衰退与个人和人群健康联系起来的现有证据令人费解。一些研究表明，经历了在经济衰退中激增的劳动力市场、住房和资产冲击的人会遭受负面的健康后果，而另一些研究表明，当经济恶化时，死亡率会下降。这篇综述根据2007-2009年大衰退的新发现，综合了来自这些不同研究传统的证据。它追踪了宏观经济变化“深入”并产生相互矛盾的总体和个人层面后果的途径。通过整合社会学的理论和分析方法，可以加强对经济衰退对健康的长期影响的研究。其中包括一个多层次的视角，考虑作为处于不同政策环境中的家庭和社区的成员，个人如何应对衰退，以及关注衰退冲击的级联，个人应对这些冲击的战略，以及这些冲击与健康轨迹的交叉方式。
The existing evidence linking recessions to individual and population health presents a puzzle. Some studies show that people who experience the kinds of labor market, housing, and asset shocks that proliferate in recessions suffer negative health consequences, whereas other studies show that mortality rates fall when the economy worsens. This review synthesizes evidence from these distinct research traditions in light of emerging findings from the Great Recession of 2007-2009. It traces pathways by which macroeconomic changes "get under the skin" and generate contradictory aggregate-and individual-level consequences. Research on the longer-term health effects of recessions could be strengthened by integrating theoretical and analytical approaches from sociology. These include a multilevel perspective that considers how individuals cope with recessions as members of families and communities embedded in different policy environments, and attention to cascades of recessionary shocks, individuals' strategies for coping with them, and the way these intersect with health trajectories.
