This project aims to provide new policy-relevant research focusing on the role of socioeconomic status (SES) in determining health outcomes for children and adults in Australia, and in reducing health-related inequalities. This project will use high-quality Australian longitudinal data and the most advanced econometric models to provide new insights into the pathways underlying the SES gradient. The project will also use similar data for Britain as a valuable comparison point. The research will contribute to a better understanding of health outcomes relating to a healthy start to life and strengthening Australia's social and economic fabric.

该项目旨在提供新的政策相关研究，重点关注社会经济地位（SES）在确定澳大利亚儿童和成人健康结果以及减少健康相关不平等方面的作用。该项目将使用高质量的澳大利亚纵向数据和最先进的计量经济学模型，为SES梯度的路径提供新的见解。该项目还将使用英国的类似数据作为有价值的比较点。这项研究将有助于更好地了解与健康的生命开端有关的健康结果，并加强澳大利亚的社会和经济结构。
