| Research Abstract |
We sought to examine the association between areal characteristics and individual health among Japanese middle-aged men and women by using multilevel approach. Area deprivation level was associated with the higher mortality and morbidity after adjustment of individual SES factors. Other areal characteristics (i.e., stress level, social norm, levels of interest in health check-up) were also associated with individual health outcomes. Our results suggest that areal environment could be a crucial public health target.
