“…The fact that only one person in this study worked full time (being selfemployed) and the others worked part time or not at all, is similar to findings by Halmøy, Fasmer, Gillberg, and Haavik (2009). Results from a Canadian study suggest that if conditions are put in place-helping people with ADHD succeed and earn higher incomes-they may not experience aboveaverage levels of psychological distress, meaning that high income may serve as a protective factor for psychological distress (Pond, Fowler, & Hesson, 2019).…”

This qualitative study explored the day-to-day life of people aged 50þ diagnosed with ADHD. A phenomenological-hermeneutical method was chosen for the analysis. Two themes including subthemes were revealed. The first theme, Being different and trying to handle my inner self, concerned emotional self-regulation, emotional resilience, social skills, and personal resource management. The second theme, Trying to adapt to fit in with people around me, concerned relationships, work, and personal finances. The comprehensive understanding was interpreted as Being different but striving to seem normal.

“…Another study also found that those socio-economically disadvantaged were most likely to report disability in relation to their intellect and emotions [5]. Concerning psychological distress, other studies also have found a lower prevalence among individuals with high incomes groups compared to those who belong to low income groups [47][48][49].…”

Socio-economic inequalities in the multiple dimensions of access to healthcare: the case of South Africa

2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Background: The National Development Plan (NDP) strives that South Africa, by 2030, in pursuit of Universal Health Coverage (UHC) achieve a significant shift in the equity of health services provision. This paper provides a diagnosis of the extent of socio-economic inequalities in health and healthcare using an integrated conceptual framework. Method: The 2012 South African National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (SANHANES-1), a nationally representative study, collected data on a variety of questions related to health and healthcare. A range of concentration indices were calculated for health and healthcare outcomes that fit the various dimensions on the pathway of access. A decomposition analysis was employed to determine how downstream need and access barriers contribute to upstream inequality in healthcare utilisation. Results: In terms of healthcare need, good and ill health are concentrated among the socio-economically advantaged and disadvantaged, respectively. The relatively wealthy perceived a greater desire for care than the relatively poor. However, postponement of care seeking and unmet need is concentrated among the socio-economically disadvantaged, as are difficulties with the affordability of healthcare. The socio-economic divide in the utilisation of public and private healthcare services remains stark. Those who are economically disadvantaged are less satisfied with healthcare services. Affordability and ability to pay are the main drivers of inequalities in healthcare utilisation. Conclusion: In the South African health system, the socio-economically disadvantaged are discriminated against across the continuum of access. NHI offers a means to enhance ability to pay and to address affordability, while disparities between actual and perceived need warrants investment in health literacy outreach programmes.

“…Como se evidencia en la Tabla, 10 estudios indagaron los factores protectores y de riesgo del TDAH y los síntomas asociados y 1 estudio los examinó en conjunto con una muestra de individuos con TC. 7 estudios identificaron factores protectores (Carballo et al, 2013;Golmirzaei et al, 2013;Mitchell, Cooley, Evans, y Fite, 2016; Muñoz-Pérez, Pérez-García, Arroyo, Vichido-Luna, y Soto-Vega, 2014; Schei, Novik, Thomsen, Indredavik, y Jozefiak, 2015; Zendarski, Sciberras, Mensah, y Hiscock, 2017b) y 6 estudios identificaron factores de riesgo (Carballo et al, 2013;Golmirzaei et al, 2013;Mulraney, Zendarski, Mensah, Hiscock, y Sciberras, 2017;Muñoz-Pérez et al, 2014;Pond, Fowler, y Hesson, 2016;Zendarski, Sciberras, Mensah, y Hiscock, 2017a).…”

“…El estudio fue de carácter transversal y participaron 140 niños entre los 5 y 13 años, quienes fueron evaluados con un cuestionario de dificultades y fortalezas. Por su parte, Pond et al (2016) en un estudio correlacional con una muestra de 488 adultos entre los 20 y 64 años con diagnóstico de TDAH, identificaron que la angustia psicológica asociada a los bajos ingresos económicos incrementan el riesgo de presentar otros trastornos psiquiátricos. De igual forma, otros factores como el nacimiento antes de la semana 37 de gestación (Muñoz-Pérez et al, 2014), ser el primogénito (Carballo et al, 2013), antecedentes parentales de trastornos psiquiátricos, abortos previos, exposición a alcohol y tabaco durante el embarazo, epilepsia y traumas craneales (Golmirzaei et al, 2013) también se relacionan como probables factores de riesgo.…”

“…En cuanto a los factores individuales identificados como la actividad física, irritabilidad, pobreza emocional y angustia psicológica (Mitchell et al, 2016;Mulraney et al, 2017;Pond et al, 2016) también son poco relacionados en otras revisiones, el soporte emocional es identificado como factor protector o promotor en siete estudios transversales . Por su parte, los factores familiares y sociales son los más investigados en esta área, múltiples estudios han examinado el papel de protección y de riesgo de dichas variables en distintos ambientes.…”

Protective and risk factors for conduct disorder and attention deficit–hyperactivity disorder. A systematic review. Conduct disorder (CD) and attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are the most frequent clinical disorders in children and adolescents. The aim of the review was to identify the protective and risk factors of CD and ADHD to guide the design of intervention programs that allow to modify the risks and strengthen the characteristics that prevent manifestation of the symptomatology. The existing literature was analyzed from January 2012 to June 2017 through a search conducted in Scopus, Pubmed, Sciencedirect and PsycINFO. In conclusion, individual and family factors are predominant in both types of disorder, where variables of both protection and risk were found, with the emotional and cognitive variables being the most studied in the individual factors and in family factors the quality of the relationship between parents and son.Resumen: El trastorno de conducta (TC) y el trastorno de déficit de atención y/o hiperactividad (TDAH) son de los trastornos clínicos más frecuentes en niños y adolescentes. El objetivo de la revisión fue identificar los factores protectores y de riesgo de TC y TDAH para orientar el diseño de programas de intervención que permitan modificar los riesgos y fortalecer las características que contribuyen a la no manifestación de la sintomatología. Se analizó la literatura existente desde enero de 2012 hasta junio de 2017 mediante una búsqueda realizada en Scopus, Pubmed, Sciencedirect y PsycINFO. En conclusión, el estudio de los factores individuales y familiares son predominantes en ambos tipos de trastorno, en donde se encontraron variables tanto de protección como de riesgo, siendo las variables emocionales y cognitivas las más estudiadas en los factores individuales y la calidad de la relación entre padres e hijo en los factores familiares.

The Influence of Socioeconomic Status on Psychological Distress in Canadian Adults With ADD/ADHD

Abstract: The findings suggest that negative outcomes associated with ADD/ADHD are not necessarily pervasive. High income may serve as a protective factor for psychological distress among adults with ADD/ADHD.
