Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Johns Hopkins University, 2005.

During early adulthood, differences in health behaviors emerge that are precursors to inequalities in health and mortality experienced in later life. The relationship between work-related resources and exposures and health behavior is an excellent example of how health becomes socially stratified.

The relationship between work-related resources and exposures and health behavior is an excellent example of how health becomes socially stratified.
520 $a Data for the dissertation come from the U.S. National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979--2000. Trajectories of smoking (between 1992--1998) among young adults are described by race/ethnicity and gender. Multinomial regression models show that European Americans are more likely to quit versus not quit than African Americans, and that they are also more likely to quit without relapsing versus quit unsuccessfully than either African Americans or Hispanics. Specific social and economic indicators (poverty, wealth, and marriage) explain the racial differences in quitting, but do not explain the differences in quitting without relapse.
520 $a The role of employment, as a fundamental determinant of resources, is considered for young adults aging into midlife (ages 15--40 years over 1979--1998). Discrete-time hazards models show that there are effects of joblessness on cessation among women, but not among men. The lower likelihood of cessation among African American and Hispanic women who are out of the labor force is explained by social and economic resources. European American women who are unemployed or out of the labor force remain less likely to quit even after controlling for these resources.
520 $a The effects of psychosocial exposures at work are modeled using discrete-time hazards models. 'High strain' jobs with high demands and low latitude, and 'passive' jobs with low demands and low latitude, are associated with the lowest cessation. 'Active' jobs with high demands and high latitude is associated with the highest cessation. These differences in cessation by workplace conditions are instructive for understanding racial, ethnic and gender differences in smoking since men are more likely to age into 'active' than 'high strain' jobs, and African Americans are the most likely to remain in 'passive' jobs.
520 $a The analyses underscore the relevance of policy that increases human capital leading to employment and occupational attainment. It also highlights the need for workplace health programs that extend beyond individual interventions to address workplace conditions.
